The month of July was a good month. Things seemed to come together more. We went 16-13 for the month, one of the few months over .500 win percentage since taking over this team. We lifted up to 4th place and we are only 3 games behind the 2 teams that are tied for 2nd place.

Team batting stayed roughly the same at 9th in the league with a .249 average. Leading the offensive categories are 1B Jim Eppard with a .310 average and newcomer CF Lee Graham batted .344. Sergio Chavez continues to lead in HRs with 9 and C Steve Lake leads in RBI with 30.

Team pitching is the main reason for the improvement as we improved to a staff ERA of 4.01, 5th in the league. Bullpen ERA improved to 4.15, although still ranked 10th in the league. Luis Salinas leads the team with 7 wins and a 3.11 ERA. MR Pedro Ontiveros has been excellent in the Closer role, pitching 45 innings, saving 14 games with an ERA of only 1.97.

Need to keep up his pace and I can see a promotion in my future if we do!
