We have a 3-game series on the road against the Arizona Diamondbacks kicking off today. Here is my report on the opponent:

A ballpark slightly favoring hitters, Guaranteed Rate Field has room for 47098 fans.

It is too early to comment on their season success and stats so far.

Here are the projected pitching matchups, our pitchers listed first:


RHP L. Lynn (0-0, 0.00 ERA) versus RHP T. Danish (0-0, 0.00 ERA)
LHP M. Gonzales (0-0, 0.00 ERA) versus LHP C. Rodon (0-1, 2.84 ERA)
RHP Z. Wheeler (0-1, 6.00 ERA) versus RHP R. Lopez (1-0, 1.59 ERA)

Cherokees Win Third in a Row, Beat Chicago, 4-1

Chicago, Illinois - Charlotte Cherokees starter Lance Lynn pitched a strong game against the Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field, tossing 7 innings of 2 hit baseball where he allowed just one run, walking 2 and striking otu 3 in leading the Cherokees to a 4-1 win. Cam Bedrosian and Juan Ventura would finish off the game out of the bullpen without allowing a hit over the last two innings.



Charlotte, now 3-1, is setting the league on fire so far and is the talk of the town with their thirds straight win and another solid offensive performance. The Cherokees picked up the win with a combination of good hitting and good pitching.

"It was a tough night at the plate," said Chicago manager Rick Renteria.
