Hap Hartig was enjoying a comeback in year in
the early part of the 2009 season. Through his first four appearances, Hap was 2-0 with a
microscopic 0.54 era. However, a knee injury derailed his marvelous season. When healthy, Hap
displayed a jump in his speed and plenty of movement. Skipper Fiorillo has high hopes on a
healthy Hartig which could result in a champagne celebration come August.
