What a roll Dayton is on. Tonight, a 6-2 win, with big hitting from Yorman, David Vidal and Tucker Barnhart, and strong pitching from Daniel Renken and Chad "Sharky" Rogers, who struck out 14 in eight innings. That's 10 of 11 after a 2-8 start.
Question for people who have seen Dayton. The pitching has been so good lately, it makes me wonder whether part of the success might be the defense. There's a lot of speed with Hamilton, Sierra, Yorman and Lohman. Anybody have a take on that?
