Go BLUE!!!
The Bats are trying to play small ball early. Keppinger hit a leadoff double and Pedro Lopez attempted to bunt him over. He fouled off the first two and pops up to the pitcher on the third attempt. Yes, he was still bunting with two strikes.
Votto is 1-1
Louisville is up 1-0 after Chris Dickerson hit his 5th homerun.
Votto at first. Should I be looking into this?

Any news on if Bruce and Rosales will start tonight for the Lookouts?

It would not surprise me at all to see it happen. They made room for them on the roster.
Seems that's the way it works, make'em jump in the deep end and swim. That's a tough challenge but it a.) gets them quickly over any jitters they may have and b.) lets the coaching staff/front office see how they react to a little pressure

Louisville lost 2-1. Rick Sweet loves small ball apparently. The Bats attempted 3 sac bunts today, 2 were successful. No runs scored after any of them, including in the 9th. Votto lead off with a walk and Edwards bunted him over. Bellhorn K'ed and Machado grounded out to end the game.
Votto 2-3 with a walk
Dickerson 1-2 with a homerun
Keppinger 2-4
They always do that with the bunting. First and no outs, second and no outs, three-run lead, tie game, doesn't matter. I've taken to calling it "Sweetball" in my blog's Tuesday Minors reports.
Pretty much the only Louisville hitters that I don't think I've seen bunt are Joey Votto and maybe Mark Bellhorn.
Dickerson is 1-1 with a HR.
For some reason Herr was pulled in the middle of the game. I have no idea idea why. Anybody know anything?
