SS Pierre-Louis Simon felt some pain while throwing to first and was diagnosed with a tired arm. He was sidelined last week on the advice of the team doctor.
Duncan Bland was 3-4 with an RBI, leading the team to a 3-2 win in the finale against Dallas. Bland is now hitting .313 with 10 HR and 29 RBI in 38 games.
Indianapolis scored 11 runs in the ninth inning to beat us 14-1 on Friday. You know all about this game from the previous post.
Todd Fletcher salvaged a game from Indianapolis with a complete game, allowing one run on six hits, no walks, and striking out seven in the 6-1 win. Fletcher is 9-3 with a 2.74 ERA.
St. Louis lost three straight to Seattle while we were sweeping Dallas. They have lost 8 of 10 and are 9-17 in June.
We signed the last of our draft picks and all have reported to their assigned minor league teams.
Jorge Figueroa (12-3, 1.93) was placed on the disabled list with a sore elbow. He is expected to be out four weeks and will probably miss the all-star game for the first time in his 13-year career.
This week: 3 vs. Chicago, 4 at Sacramento
