Timpner Makes Major League Debut!

The cool thing about playing in Triple-A?  One injury, one slump, one phone call away.

Former Valley Leaguer Clay Timpner (Staunton 02) learned that first-hand yesterday, as he was called up to the San Francisco Giants from the Triple-A Fresno Grizzlies when Dave Roberts was placed on the disabled list.  Clay played in San Francisco's game Tuesday night, striking out in his first major league at-bat against San Diego's Cla Meredith.  Timpner remained in the game, playing left field.

It's unclear how much playing time Clay will receive; Dan Ortmeier and Rajai Davis will probably get the lion's share of Robert's time. However, he now has major league experience!
