Reed was strugling mightly, good to see him havea good day.

I still have no idea what has gotten into Lopez.
Votto is a beast.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

It's not usually a good sign when you have a 4 hit day and only raise your batting average to .245.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Gardner is getting lit up in the 1st. Already given up 4 runs.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Dickerson walks in his 1st AB.

The Indians announcers are in awe of his combo of size, speed, power, and defense. They called him the fastest man in the organization. They, like everyone, just wonder if he'll be able to make contact consitently and the next level.

Billings down 1-0 in the 3rd now. Check out the game time weather report:

Weather: 95 degrees, sunny.

Ouch.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Aaron Herr was just removed from the game. I have no idea why, and neither to the announcers.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Votto is 2-2 with a HR, RBI, and SB.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Anyone know why the 3B playing against Dayton was ejected? According to the game log it happened before the Stubbs hit,

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

nevermind.

He struck out to end the 3rd and was ejected by the home plate umpire. I'll go out on a limb and say that he did not agree with the called strike 3.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Gardner settled down nicely.

His final line: 5 IP, 7 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 5 K

Reds need to call Bray up and send don Gosling. Bray has been mowing hitters doen since his 1st rough outing.

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Im ready to see what Votto can do at the MLB level

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Bray: 1 Inning, 0 Hits, 0 Runs, 1 BB, 3 K

Re: 4th of July Minor League Updates
 

Bray: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K

And Chi-Town Red, I think we'll see alot of guys in the majors come August and September.

Game is on Indy tv Bill Bray was throwing free and easy.
