1B Jack Washburn (22-L) has been cleared to play by Trudy the Trainer, so he was activated from the DL. RF Phil Moore (23-R) was sent back to Daytona's (A) roster to make room.
We are in Louisville to finish the regular season with a 3 game series against the Colonels. They just split 4 games in Birmingham. We are 8-3 against them on the season and split a pair of games the last time we visited, June 30 - July 1. They are tied for 12th in scoring with 3.81 runs per game (Jacksonville is #3 with 4.37) We need to score 5 runs in the 3 games to make it to 700 runs on the season. Our previous high was 646 runs in 2002. We scored 640 last year. The Colonels are 5th in fewest runs allowed with 3.84 per game (Jacksonville is #1 with 3.17). Their run differential is -5 and ours is +191, 69 runs ahead of Syracuse for 1st in the MLB!
