Workman Watch: Red Sox don’t use Workman versus Yankees

Former Bowie High School standout pitcher Brandon Workman didn’t pitch out of the bullpen at all during last weekend’s series for the Boston Red Sox against the New York Yankees.
That means Workman’s last performance of the season took place on Sept. 18 at Pittsburgh against the Pirates – in which he earned a loss. The Red Sox wrapped up play this past Sunday.
Workman pitched well enough to win in that game, giving up three runs (two earned) on seven hits while striking out six and walking three. He allowed a home run as Pittsburgh defeated Boston 3-2 at PNC Park.
Workman finished a disappointing 2014 campaign with a record of 1-10, which includes a 5.17 earned-run average.
He worked 87 innings, giving up 57 runs (50 earned) on 88 hits, including 11 home runs. Opponents finished the season batting .263 against Workman.
The Bowie Hall of Honor inductee struck out 70 and walked 36.
Workman fared much better with the Triple-A Pawtucket (R.I.) PawSox, going 7-1 with a 4.11 ERA. In 11 game starts and 61-1/3 innings pitched, he allowed 28 earned runs on 61 hits to go with 55 strikeouts and 17 walks. He surrendered 10 minor league homers, too.
It’s unclear what role Workman will have with the Red Sox for the 2015 season, and a return to the bullpen could be in the offing.
This marks the final Workman Watch for now, as news warrants on the 2007 Bowie High School graduate.

The Red River High School Bass Club has officially wrapped up a competitive and rewarding fishing season, highlighted by a strong showing at the regional tournament on Possum Kingdom Lake and participation in the Texas High School Bass Association State Tournament on Lake Texoma.

Five teams from Red River qualified for the regional tournament, underscoring the continued growth and strength of the program. Those teams included Cooper Johnson and Colt Henry; Colten Anglin and Tayt Lawrence; Bryce DeMore and Ranger Carle; Lane Smith and Carson Caudle; and Walker Strahan and Bryce Ramsey.

Facing tough conditions at Possum Kingdom Lake, Red River anglers battled through a challenging bite against a large and competitive field. Leading the Red River were Walker Strahan and Bryce Ramsey, who placed 53rd overall with four fish weighing a total of 8.53 pounds. Lane Smith and Carson Caudle followed in 65th place, bringing in two fish totaling 7.18 pounds. While the standings did not reflect top finishes, the experience gained at regionals proved valuable for the young anglers, many of whom competed at this level for the first time.

New Bowie golf coach Remy Stewart may be new to the Rabbit golfers but definitely not to the sport.

Stewart, in his second year in Bowie, spent 11 years as golf coach in Farwell before coming here. He was powerlifting coach last year and insists one sports will not be prioritized over the other despite the pair each taking place in the early spring.

He originally had never planned on coaching golf.

“When I originally interviewed (in Farwell) it was for a football/basketball position but they also asked if I would be willing to coach golf,” Stewart said. “I said yes and the rest is history.”
