MinnDak Millers Ink Travis Price and Rick Lang
Fargo, ND / Moorhead, MN November 2, 2006 Fargo/Moorhead The MinnDak Millers would like to announce their second set of signings, a pair of pitchers, for the 2007 season. MinnDak has added Travis Price and re-signed Rick Lang. Lang was signed with MinnDak this past season, but threw only one weekend before suffering a season-ending knee injury in late May. 2006 would have been Lang’s second with MinnDak, as he spent 2002 with the club (then known as the Imaging Solutions Knights). Rick was no stranger to his “new” teammates last year, having thrown against them for years with the Sioux Falls Chiefs, Junker’s Bar and Grill and RWP, Inc., as well as Albaugh, Inc. in 2005. Travis Price comes to MinnDak from the SoCal Bombers, with whom he spent the last 2 years. Previously, Price threw with Team Rainey for 3 seasons. A member of Team USA since 2004, price most recently competed for Team USA at the Pan Am Qualifying Tournament in Hermosillo, Mexico earlier this fall. Last January, Travis was named Most Valuable Pitcher of the AAU International Tournament in Orlando, Florida, helping lead Team USA to the championship. “Both of these guys are known for their tenacity on the mound. They are team players who battle and give everything they’ve got. Those traits should make them both a perfect fit with the Millers team philosophy,” says Millers Manager Paul Lybeck. Look for further announcements as the Millers hope to solidify their roster over the next few weeks.
