LAKE ELSINORE-- DANNY DUFFY did his part Tuesday night but it wasn't enough for the Carolina League All-Stars who went down to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of the California League Stars at the 2009 Class A All-Star Game.
Duffy pitched the sixth inning for Carolina and drew the heart of the Cal order, but they went down 1-2-3. Duffy did not give up a hit or a walk or, well, anything.
Right fielder Roger Kieschnick, a .304 hitter for the San Jose Giants, struck out swinging.
First baseman Joseph Dunnigan, a .336 hitter for the High Desert Mavericks, a Seattle Mariner affiliate, went out on a fly ball.
And third baseman Logan Forsythe, a .322 hitter for the home town Lake Elsinore Storm, a San Diego Padre farm team, grounded out.
1-2-3....... against the best in Class A- Advanced. Duffy now returns to Wilmington, Delaware where he has posted a 2.85 ERA for Kansas City's third highest-ranked minor league affiliate. Keep in mind Danny is still just 20 years old.
