Former Naturals ace Carlos Rosa has now made his first major league appearance (actually 5 days ago, but who's counting?) in the Major Leagues. On June 14 he pitched a perfect inning of relief, allowing no base-runners and striking out one.
Rosa became the first former Natural regular to appear in a major league game. Another former Nat, Jeff Fulchino, is also on the 25 man big league roster. Many Nats fans, though, probably don't remember Fulchino as he only appeared in two games with NWA during the opening road trip in Texas. Nonetheless, Fulchino is technically the first former Natural to appear in a major league game (he's pitched in 4 games so far for KC) on June 8. Aside from one rough outing (he allowed two earned runs without recording an out), Fulchino has pitched well for the Royals.

About this Blog:
In this, the Northwest Arkansas Naturals' inaugural season, I thought it would be fun to create a blog to discuss the team, and to provide some additional, original content on Arkansas' newest professional sports franchise.
I will try to focus on three things:
1. Day to day results of the Naturals' games, including as many first-hand accounts as I can give you.
2. Rehab assignments and call-ups to and from the Royals.
3. Game strategy notes plucked from Naturals games. I'll discuss pitching changes and offensive strategies, evaluating each as we go. Afterall, it's not just the players, but also the the managers and coaches who are trying to make it to the show.
