Thursday, June 27, Year II

P Lonny Tomski (28-R) has been sent back to Vancouver (AAA) and P Larry Smith (27-R) has been recalled. He has had one start for Portland and it was a CG shutout, so he deserves another.

We are in Kansas City to play a 4 game series through the weekend. The Royals just dropped 2 of 3 here to the Astros. We are 1-3 against them this season and split a pair of games the first time we came here, April 9-10. The Royals are 2nd in the PCL in scoring with 4.59 runs per game (Portland is up to 5th with 4.12). Even though they play in a tough park to hit home runs in, they are 2nd in the PCL in HR with 78, only 1 shy of Seattle, who play in an easy park for HR. They are 2nd to Denver in scoring and I think it is safe to say that the Royals are the best hitting team in the PCL this year so far. They are 5th in fewest runs allowed with 3.91 per game (Portland us still clinging to 1st with 3.09). Without 2 of our top starting pitchers for the next five weeks, we will probably not hold the top stop for much longer. The Royals lead the League in fewest HR allowed with only 35 given up. They still have the highest payroll in Baseball.

Portland Beavers (49-28 .636 in 1st place in the PCL West) at
Kansas City Royals (40-36 .526 6.5 GB in 3rd place in the PCL East)

POR: Dave Shoemake (27-R 3-0 1.72) Rookie vs. KC: John Wolters (25-R 6-2 3.36) Rookie

Wolters control is not the best (3.6 BB/9), but other than that, he has been excellent this season. He is 2-0 against us, allowing us 1 run each time.

Shoemake has thrown 3 CG in his first 4 starts. I think he is due for an ERA correction outing....
