Canseco has a stress fracture of the hamate bone in his left hand Canseco's Huntsville assignment is contingent upon his progress during workouts in Oakland After two days of batting practice Canseco has experienced no pain in his injured left wrist Last season Canseco led the American League with 42 home runs and had 124 RBIs Toronto: The Blue Jays activated shortstop Tony Fernandez from the 2I-day disabled list and have purchased the contract of Junior Felix from Class AAA Syracuse of the International League San Francisco: The Giants have released pitcher Joe Price who was 1-1 and had a

deep in the cellar just a half-game behind Columbus which edged them 5-4 in their Southern League baseball battle at Knights Castle Tuesday night But still on the bottom their I 1-13 record percentage points behind 12-14 Greenville in the Eastern Division And a half-game behind 12-13 Columbus And Knights manager Jim Essian having watched his team drop three of four games in its current homestand is not happy about it "We gave 'em too many Outs" Essian said after the Mudcats came from behind with three runs in the top of the sixth inning "We haven't been playing well It's awful early to be panicking but we somehow need to be more consistent We lost it defensively tonight" Essian pointed to a mental mistake and a physical error in that Columbus sixth With Charlotte in front 4-3 and runners on first and second Knights starter Greg Kallevig fielded a hot smash back to the mound "You go for the second-tofirst double play in that situation every time" Essian said Kallevig who wasn't sure he had the ball initially threw to third for the force-out Then third baseman Jeff Small compounded the problem by throwing the ball past first One run scored and batter Trent Hubbard wound up on third where he scored the winning run on a sacrifice fly The Knights seemed in control early but that's been misleading recently Charlotte wiped out the Mudcats' 1-0 lead with three runs in the third With the bases loaded Greg Smith popped a double down the left-field line scoring two runs One out later Kelly Mann singled to score Landrum The teams meet tonight at 6 in a Castle doubleheader Notes:
