for Thompson.
Thompson looking strong thru 3 innings so far...3 k's in the second...
33pitches-25 strikes...
The Reds need to move TonyG up to AAA. His OBP in AA is absurd.
Wood is thru 2 innings with a 3 k's but gave up a solo shot...
Montgomery Top 2nd
John Jaso called out on strikes.
Erold Andrus grounds out, third baseman Eric Eymann to first baseman Tonys Gutierrez.
Gabriel Martinez homers (7) on a fly ball to left field.
Patrick Cottrell grounds out to pitcher Travis Wood.
As noted, one hard hit ball in the second.
It may be ironic, but Columbus is Washington's AAA team. Uh, couldn't the Nats use a pitcher like Thompson?
