WEEK 4
1 vs New Hampshire
3 vs Houston (7-11 6.5 GB CL Central)
4 @ Corpus Christi (8-10 5.5 GB CL Central)

GAME 19
Jeff Bentley is clearly not ready for big league ball (0-2 15.23) and he’ll be optioned out this evening. A 4.1-8-7-7-4-3 day was enough. NH Starter Roberto Salazar (2-2 2.70) held us to 2 in 6.2 IP and Moore (3) and Snyder (1) homered for the Fisher Cats.
NH 8 CHI 2 (9-10 5.5 GB)

ORG NEWS
Our old friend Bill Flowers was recalled after the game, and Bentley was sent back to get innings. Flowers was 3-0 2.00 in 3 starts, so maybe, JUST MAYBE, he’s turned it around at least a little?

The CC Hooks lost 30 year old SP Lindsay Johnson for the year with a ruptured elbow ligament. He was 1-0 3.63 in 4 starts.

GAME 21
Left in to get #9 hitter Alberto Ortiz, a LHH, with 2 outs in the 6th and 2 on, Jose Pacheco surrendered a 3 run back breaking HR, Ortiz’s 1st on the year and the Roughriders would end up with 7 in the 6th.

Fresno’s Joe O’Neal went 12-26 with 3 HR’s and 4 RBI’s to take home CL PotW honors.

Brooklyn 2B Paul Morris will miss the next month with a fractured wrist. Morris was hitting 351-1-13 in 24 games after being acquired from the Knights this past winter.

We are 3 days from the end of the month, when I’ll update the league and stuff but here’s a quick look around the league.

In the FL East NY is 14-10, 1 up on a 14-12 Brooklyn.

San Antonio is 15-9, 3.5 up on the 12-13 Drillers in the Central. Dayton is off to a 9-14 start.

In the West Sacramento is at it again, tied with Columbus for the best record in the IBL at 16-8, 3 up on 13-11 El Paso.

In the CL East Philly is 16-9, 1.5 up on 14-10 Baltimore.

Surprising Columbus is leading our division at 16-8, 3.5 up on us and Houston is 9-15, 7 back.

In the West Fresno is 15-8, 3.5 up on LA. Michigan and Vegas are 10-15.

Chicago’s Paul Riggs is pacing the CL hitters at .387. Jean Chartier is 3rd with 22 RBI’s and Hugh Collins is tied for 2nd with 7 SB’s. Ernesto Cruz is 2nd to Ivan Lopez (COL) with 8 saves, trailing by 2. A healthy Vince Bray (PIT) is leading Chris O’Slattery in K’s 47-40. O’Slattery is first in wins with 5 (Bray and Will Cannon (COL)) are 2nd with 4.

Carlos Arredondo, the slugger Houston traded, is leading the CL in HR’s with 9 and RBI’s with 24. Surprised to see no Vince Soto in the batting race but he’s 2nd in RBI’s with 23, as LA moved him down in the lineup.

Over in the FL Barney Ledoux (SAN) ( a part time guy who’s bounced between AAA and the IBL) leads the entire IBL in average at .391.

Valentin Maitani (EP) is tied with Sacramento’s Jason White with 10HR’s. Maitani is leading in RBI’s as well at 26.

Stud Walt Thompson (BRO) is leading the IBL in K’s again, at 54, 12 up on River Cats Vince Romero, who’s leading the FL in ERA at 1.56.
