FARGO — Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks manager Chris Coste said something predictive less than two weeks ago after the team added Tucupita Marcano, a former Major Leaguer, to the team. The RedHawks added another premium bat to an already potent offense on Tuesday, Aug. 11, adding outfielder Eric Filia, 34, who is a former U.S. Olympian. Heading into Tuesday's game, the RedHawks were second in the league in runs scored and team batting average and fourth in home runs. Filia, Thomas, Kroon and Fernandez all have Triple-A experience. “We were really happy with our offense before we added Filia," Coste said.
