I guess this fulfills my intent to post at least one item for every team.

Greinke's out hurt, so Callaspo's the Royals representative. Seattle has three starting pitchers in there... didn't notice that until now.

Brandon Webb's healthy... that's different. Probably the one that most stands out is Flores for Washington... you'd think Zimmerman would make it instead.

OK, I guess Cliff Pennington as an All-Star is pretty surprising, too.

Very lopsided loss. That's 5 losses in a row for us. Gordon Peterson pitched a great game for Trenton, holding us to only 1 hit: RF Darrell Evans' double in the 2nd. Meanwhile, their offense was on fire. 1B Tom Schultz hit a 2-run HR for them in the 7th to make it 4-0 and then delivered a 2-run double in the 8th to cap their 5 run inning.

We dropped our 4th in a row and are back to .500 (23-23). Starter Bob Wilson was strong for Trenton, going 8 innings and only giving up a solo HR to SS Russell McDonald. We brought the tying run up to bat in the 9th, but PH Darrell Evans struck out to end the game. I know we're out of it, but let's try for a winning record, guys!

We tried to come back late, but just couldn't quite get there. Grafton got off to a big lead thanks to lots of hits (17). CF Henry McGee had 3 hits for Grafton, and so did their pitcher, Stanley Martin. Four other batters had 2 hits each. Grafton has now won 11 in a row and we're 0-8 against them. Maybe the 2nd half will be kinder to us.
