Re: 4/23 Minor League updates
Kozlowski hasn't looked good this year. He's been struggling in his move to the bullpen.

Great outing by Charles Fisher: 6 innings, 2 hits, 0 runs, 0 walks, 9 strikeouts
Re: 4/23 Minor League updates
Isnt that 2 in a row for Mr Fisher?
Re: 4/23 Minor League updates
Nothing better than seeing a position player pitch. Buchanon pitched the ninth for Louisville today. Gave up a solo HR, but managed to stike out some poor soul too.

Ohhhh how that brings back the memories of Derek Bell aka. Operation Shutdown. I could never forget seeing that man on the mound with his sunglasses. How could I almost forget Mark Grace.
Re: 4/23 Minor League updates
Got back from Dayton - Fisher was bringing it - but so was the Kane County pitcher... it was definitely a pitcher's duel. The game winner was a Mosby HR (he has to be the biggest player I have ever seen in a Dragons uni) in the 7th. Good win for Dayton - Vanderwood, the Dragons announcer, said that Kane County was the best hitting team in the MWL. I think there was only 9 hits between both of the teams.
BTW, Birdzerk was the entertainment for the day.
Will be there on Wednesday to see Wilson pitch - then on Friday.
