George Bowers (9-12, 3.92) allowed 1R (0ER) in a CG win and got POG honors. Ray Dimeo went 2 for 3, 1R, 1BB. But other than that, a quiet day at the plate for both teams.

STANDINGS
-We've played 15 straight games in August as we play every day except for 8/22 this month. We went 8-7. Unfortunately 3 of those losses were against division leading St. Louis. We are 4th in the division and now 13 games back.

BAD NEWS
-Harley Melzer has been a little shakey since being put into the #3 spot in the rotation.
-Poor Bob Guilderson has gone 1-6 in his last seven starts despite pitching well in most of those games. We have a one of the top offenses in the league, but can't seem to put it together on days Bob is pitching.

GOOD NEWS
-Hal Andrew has been hot in his last 7 starts (5-0, 2.28)
-Vic Gorin has been a little up and down, but has still managed a 5-1, 2.25 in his last 6.
-Matt Perly has been tearing it up hitting .619 in his last 7 games.
-Ray Kress is for sure on of our MVPs at the plate, but he is making a case for himself for a gold glove as he has a perfect fielding % so far this year.
-Zero injuries despite the non-stop schedule this month - Even Sherm Rorabeck managed to get healthy!!!!
