Workman victorious in return to minors
Brandon Workman, a former Bowie High School standout, returned to Triple-A last week and won his start for the Pawtucket PawSox on Friday against Syracuse at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket, R.I.
The PawSox are the Triple-A affiliate for the Boston Red Sox.
Workman scatted threw 6-2/3 innings, scattering just three hits while allowing one earned run. Brandon struck out six and walked one.
One of the three hits Workman surrendered was a home run. Still, he managed to lower his minor-league earned-run average to 4.11.
Workman threw 68 strikes in 108 pitches. John Ely recorded a hold and Dalier Hinojosa the save to help Workman earn the win.
Workman has pushed up his innings total to 134-1/3 for the year. It marks the third straight year Brandon has worked more than 130 innings in a season.
In the minors, Workman has worked 61-1/3 innings, giving up 28 earned runs and 61 hits.
He’s struck out 55 and walked 17. He’s allowed 10 home runs overall at the Triple-A level.
Workman may continue pitching for the PawSox since they have qualified for the postseason in the International League (IL) and will face Syracuse today and Thursday.
It’s unclear if the Red Sox will bring up Workman once the IL playoffs are over.

A positive culture can be tough to install but will reap dividends if done correctly.
Trinadee Imotichey is trying to do just that with her Forestburg Lady Longhorns.
Imotichey, an assistant coach on the 2025 Forestburg volleyball team, was moved into the head coaching position. Last year’s coach, Cori Hayes, took over as football head coach.
Imotichey, in her 2nd year in Forestburg, said she learned a lot from Hayes and is ready to take over.

Bowie’s summer softball league team overcame a 6-1 deficit with a six-run third inning for a 7-6 win over Bridgeport in its season opener July 6.
The league consists of teams from Bowie, Nocona, Lindsay, Bridgeport, and Alvord and will last three weeks. Bowie will host games each week.
Bowie pitcher Hazel Trahern gave up two singles and a groundout to put the Sissies on the board in the first. It would be the only hits she gave up in the game. Two groundouts and a strikeout got the Lady Rabbits out of the jam.
Bowie got the run back in the bottom of the first with Andee Jo Miller opening the frame with a walk and a stolen base. She then scored on Kynlee Baker’s groundout to tie the game at one.

Rest. Run. Repeat.
Sage Keck, an 8th grader at Montague, lives by this mantra. No ifs, ands and buts about it.
She’s been running since fourth grade PE classes where she would run a mile every week. After discovering she could outrun the other students, she began to enjoy it and continued doing it.
Her success continued, as she finished 2nd overall against more than 200 runners at the Old Saint Jo 5K July 4. In last weekend’s Texas Junior Olympics, she reached the pinnacle of her career so far by qualifying for the United States of America Track and Field (USATF) National Junior Olympics in Norwalk, Calif. in three events.
