Aaron got the call from AAA Charlotte after veteran DH Harold Baines went down with an injury. Aaron played 277 innings in center field with 81 chances and 78 put outs. He plays hard all the time as evidence by his tendency to run into the outfield walls, which earned him the nickname of crash dummy. We know errors don't tell the story when it comes to defense. If you care about that Rowand committed only one error.

For 2002, the WSI Wiz predicts...
The Wiz foresees Aaron getting regular playing time in Jerry Manuel's outfield, often as a late-inning defensive replacement. His peculiar way of running into outfield walls will earn Aaron his own cult of fans in the left field bleachers, Aaron's Army. They will be identified by their motorcycle helmets emblazoned with Rowand's #44. Whenever Aaron is playing and the Sox take the field, his fans will drape a large bedsheet sign shaped like a bulls eye over the outfield wall--serving as a target for their man. The Wiz predicts Aaron will make it through the season with no bones showing. Several insurance companies compete to sign him as spokesmen.
