9/5/6: Player of the Week .448 (13-29), 5 R, 2 2B, 1 3B, 2 HR, 7 RBI, 1 BB, 4 SO, 0 SB, .793 SLG - Mathews ended the season in spectacular fashion, as he collected five multiple-hit games and drove in seven runs. On Friday, the 24-year-old went 4-for-5 with two homers, a double, and three runs scored, but Dunedin lost to Clearwater by a score of 8-7. On Sunday, Mathews drove in a season-high four runs as the Blue Jays pounded the Threshers, 15-8.
5/13/4: Mike Lissman (04-05-06) Lissman focused on just one goal (2004) "When out on the grass, Lissman shares the outfield with junior Aaron Mathews (03) and sophomore Jacoby Ellsbury. The three have recently become familiar with the reputation of being the "middle of nowhere outfield" as they come from small towns in Oregon. Mathews hails from John Day, Ellsbury is from Madras and Lissman is from Ontario. With the total population of the three towns combined equaling 17,899, it solidifies the bond the three share and the camaraderie of the team. Not to mention that Mathews also played a role in Lissman's decision to go to Oregon State."
