In tonight’s Docking With The Ports post-game feature, Stockton’s 5-1 win over the High Desert Mavericks is broken down. In the mix is the scary backswing injury suffered by starting catcher Bruce Maxwell, and the recovery by his replacement Ryan Gorton. Always a good source of Ports info, check out tonight’s recap:
The Oakland A’s have two players in camp this spring that played in Stockton last season. One is obviously uber-prospect Addison Russell, while the other is C Bruce Maxwell. The Ports have a story up on their page about these two.
Russell is all over the hot-prospects lists and he dazzled at Stockton last year after making the jump from three 2012 stops at Rookie, Short Season and loA ball. The 6′ 0″, 190-lb Florida native got off for 17 homers and 60 RBI’s while posting a line of .275/.377/.508. Russell improved dramatically in the second half of the Cal League season and got into three games at AAA Sacramento.
