BASEBALL DRAFT SHAPES VOLCANOES ROSTER
The San Francisco Giants approached the 2009 Major League Baseball First Year Player Draft with the intent of drafting quality pitchers, and at first glance, they certainly succeeded. Twenty-four of the fifty players drafted on June 9th thru June 11th were pitchers; twenty righthanded and 4 lefthanded. Three were drafted out of high school, and twenty-one were drafted out of college. Leading the group of new pitchers was first-round pick Zachary Wheeler, a 6-3, 180 #, righthanded high school pitcher out of East Paulding High School in Georgia. Zech is said to have "plenty of fastball", a "plus" curve ball, and a tremendous upside. The Giants then followed up in Round 4 with righthandre Jason Stoffel, a 6-2, 220 # closer from the University of Arizona, righthandre Matthew Graham, a 6-4, 225 #, high schoole from Oakridge High School in Texas who has "plus" arm strength, and has had his fastball clocked at 95 mph, and righthander Jeremy Toole, a 6-4, 235 # starter from Brigham Young University in the tenth round.
The second draft pick is high school catcher, Thomas Joseph,
6-1, 215 #, from Horizon High School in Arizona. Scouts have reported he has "light tower raw power". This spring was his first year catching, and he is rated with an "above average arm".
The third pick is Christopher Doming, a 6-5, 235 #, third baseman from the University of Louisville.
At pick number five was first baseman, Brandon Belt, 6-5, 210# from the University of Texas.
Pick number seven was Nick Lilies, a second baseman from Western Carolina University.
Outfielders rounded out the top ten as 8th pick Karl Benus is from Riverview High School in Pennsylvania, and the 9th pick, Evan Crawford is a college outfielder from Indiana University.
Some interesting statistics from the 2009 draft:
Out of the 50 draftees - 10 are high schoolres; 40 college players.
By position: 20 HP, 4 LP, 5 AC, 4 1B, 1 2B, 4 3B, 3 S'S & 9 OF.
By state: 11 Texas, 8 California, 5 Florida, 2 each from Georgia,
Oklahoma, Louisiana, Indiana, Washington, and North
Carolina, and one each from Connecticut, Alabama, Iowa,
New Hampshire, New York, Arkansas, Hawaii, Arizona,
Michigan, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Tennessee, and
Puerto Rico.

VOLCANOES' POPULAR "HOST FAMILY" PROGRAM BEGINS 13TH YEAR
An Experience of a Life Time - Still Time to Host a Player
The Salem-Keizer Volcanoes, a Class A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, will arrive soon in Salem-Keizer. The franchise has a history of offering host family opportunities to local families. The Volcanoes will keep this tradition intact by living with families in the Salem-Keizer area this summer. This is an excellent opportunity to 'live the life of a professional athlete' through an 'adopted player' for a few months. Team members will begin arriving on June 16th and will need housing for the period from June 17th to approximately September 11th, depending on post-season play. Interested families should have a spare bedroom, live close to the Keizer area or on public transportation routes or have alternative transportation methods available for the players. Team members averaged age is 20 - 22 years old. The players do supply compensation to the families to help offset their room and board expenses. Families who would like more information on this exciting program should contact, Kari Naughton at (503) 393-2311 or cell 503-930-1466 or Jerry Howard at 390-2225 ext 3002.
Volcanoes setup a Series of
Special Nights
as 'Stimulus' for Local Communities/Fans
The Salem-Keizer Volcanoes have created a series of Community Nights to help make Volcanoes Baseball even more attractive for residents of Salem, Keizer and the surrounding communities -- 30 communities in all ! The Volcanoes are rolling back the pricing for outfield general admission tickets, on 'Your Night', to the prices when the Stadium first opened 13 seasons ago -- to just $5.00 per seat !!

CLUBHOUSE CHAT with JERRY WALKER
Words from the Co-Owner
The Stadium has been 'warmed up' and we are ready for another fabulous season of Volcanoes Baseball. The Beavers and the Ducks got things kicked off this year with a game at Volcanoes Stadium on May 20th, when over 5,100 fans came to the Crater. Just a few weeks later more than 5,000 fans again swarmed to the Stadium to see the 1A/2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, and 6A Oregon State High School Baseball Championships. Congratulations to all the teams, especially our 'own' McNary Celtics who won the 6A Championship! It's been an exciting time, and the Volcanoes haven't even arrived yet. But they will soon. This Wednesday night, the team will be arriving in Salem-Keizer. I hope you are all out to greet the team for their first game, a pre-season game against the All-Stars, on Friday, June 19th, and on Opening Night of the Northwest League season, at home, on Tuesday, June 23.
Another opportunity to meet the Volcanoes will be on Father's Day (Sunday, June 21), as the Stadium will host its Annual Father's Day Breakfast in the Stadium's Lava Lodge from 9am to noon. A full breakfast will be served for just $6 (kids $4). There will be fun interactive games for Dads and their kids, and the opportunity to play catch on the Volcanoes field. The Volcanoes players will also be available for autographs and photos from noon to 12:45pm. During this time several Volcanoes players will compete in a Home Run Derby. Sounds like FUN. It's all part of the Fan Feast activities scheduled from 9am to 3pm on that day and it's all FREE, except the breakfast -- tickets can be purchased in advance for the Father's Day Breakfast by calling Bead at 503-390-2225 ext. 3007.
Volcanoes Stadium received another award recently. It was named Best Sporting Venue in the Statesman Journal's "Best of the Willamette Valley" poll. Along with many other awards, since then, Volcanoes Stadium earned an Architectural Design Award from the American Institute of Architects.
