Reminder: AAA All-Star Game Tonight (ESPN2)

7:00 Eastern from Louisville Slugger Field in Louisville, KY. TV: ESPN2 & MILB.TV

Ryan Hanigan and Jon Adkins will represent the Louisville Bats. Dave Miley (SWB) will manage the International league and Bats Manager Rick Sweet will also be in the dugout.

There isn't very many Bats players on the squad considering they are in 1st place.

Re: Reminder: AAA All-Star Game Tonight (ESPN2)

I remember watching the AAA All-Star game back in 2001 when Dunn crushed two homeruns and nearly hit a third homerun. This was days after he crushed a homerun in the Futures Game off the upper deck facing in Safeco Field.

Why isn't Matt Maloney on the AAA All Star team?

He had a rough April which hurt his numbers. He's pitched good since then but that bad month probably cost him a chance at making the team. I'd much rather see him than some of the other AAAA players.

Jay Bruce, Jerry Hairston, and Jolbert Cabrera are all in Cincinnati else there could be more.

Ted Power was the pitching coach. Ugly 9th inning for both teams and their closers.

Hanigan seems to be a decent catcher. If Bako gets traded, he seems like he could very easily step into his role.

Hanigan will be the Reds catcher of the future he wont hit 30 hr's but he'll give you a 280 BA, a good OBP and solid glove.
