Stars of the Night:
AAA – Jesus Feliciano (3-5, 2 R, 3B, RBI)
AA – Luis Hernandez (2-4, 3B)
HiA – Daniel Murphy (5-5, 2B, 3 RBI)
LoA – John Church (4 IP, 1 H, 3 K)

AAA – Buffalo Bisons

The Bisons were spraying hits all over the place as the only starter without a hit was Mike Jacobs (and that includes the starting pitcher who had a single).  Jesus Feliciano now has a 12 game hitting streak including 7 hits in his last three games.  His batting average is now up to .383 and if he doesn’t get a shot soon then there is something wrong with the front office.  Josh Thole had another big game and has worked his batting average up to a respectable .250 after being in the low .100′s earlier in the season.

AA – Binghamton Mets

The B-Mets tied the game early in the 5th inning, but it didn’t last long as the Rock Cats answered right back in the bottom half of the inning to take a lead they would not let go of.  The offense managed 7 hits off Carlos Gutierrez, but he was able to keep them in check with 13 ground ball outs.  Scott Shaw struggled mightily with his command early on resulting in an early exit, however, Emary Frederick was able to come in and deliver a good relief effort.

HiA – St. Lucie Mets

Daniel Murphy had another monster rehab game going 5-for-5 with 3 RBI’s.  Again he also played all 9 innings in the field at first base.  The only other run came off the bat of Stefan Welch who hit a solo homerun in the second inning.  The disaster of the St. Lucie rotation continued today with a 3rd inning exit by Scott Moviel who got smacked around for 7 runs (5 earned) and 6 hits.  He also hurt himself with two throwing errors that resulted in the unearned runs.

LoA – Savannah Sand Gnats

Brandon Moore was pitching pretty well before Mother Nature stepped in and cut his day short.  Because of a rain stoppage John Church had to come in and deliver a terrific relief performance to earn his 3rd win of the season.  While the pitching was outstanding, the defense was just AWFUL.  There were 3 errors one by Wilmer Flores his 10th of the season, one by Alonzo Harris also his 10th of the season, and one by Jefry Marte who is already up to 14 errors in just 30 games.  Marte has good athleticism, but is just a complete butcher in the field.  Kai Gronauer added in a passed ball for good measures.
