Felipe Castro's return to the big team has sparked a large winning streak. The Tsunamis have gone from the bottom of the AL West to a 3-way tie at the top by winning 15 of their last 17 games. "Felipe is a team player all around," quoted Tsunamis president, gm, and manager Letchkins. Bench coach Todd Thompson had this to say, "As soon as he came back he hazed the 2 new guys. Preston and Cliff showed up at the next press conference wearing pink tutu's, tiaras, and carried fairy wands. It really loosened us all up. I think we were a little tight early this season."
The tsunamis resurgeance has happened on both sides of the ball. Lou Robbins, now of the Tsumanis AAA-affiliate Little Breakers wasn't getting the job done at all. "Lou just wasn't ready to be a ML starter. He was great off the bench, but was having trouble working day in and day out." Instead Castro has stepped in and is fielding .990 and already has 2 webgems on ESPN in his short stint. As a bonus Castro is also batting near .300 and has an OBP of almost .400.
The chants of "overrated" have begun to cease during home games, and instead the air is buzzing with excitement again in Honolulu.
