Next Week: 3 vs Richmond, 3 @ Ocean City
Power Ranking: 1
Fan Interest: 58
Owners Mood: Ecstatic

Game 111
Milton 0, Norfolk 2
The week started off with a great pitching performance by Don Sweetapple (13-7) Don went 8 innings of shutout ball, giving up 6 hits. Carlos Rodriquez pitched the 9th for the save (26). Ron Adler had 2 hits to lead the offense and Brian Cline Cline and Allen Britt each had an RBI.

Game 112
Milton 3, Norfolk 4
Carlos Mateo, the king of the ND, pitched 7.1 innings of shutout ball, givng up 6 hits. Dalton Whitaker gave up 2 runs, in 2/3 of an inning to register a blown save and Carlos Rodriquez pitched the 9th to preserve the win (SV 27). Tony Soto and Brian Cline each had 2 hits, each hit a HR (16/14).

Game 113
Georgetown 2, Norfolk 1
Another fine start for the Cav's went to waste, as the offense couldn't get anything going. Karl Armstrong went 7 innings, giving up 4 hits and 1 run (0 ER). Javier Castro (4-3) gave up a run in the 8th to take the loss. Tony Soto had a solo-hr (17) to count for the only run of the game.

Transaction News: Jose Rodriquez rejoins the Cav's after being activated from the 15-day DL. To make room on the roster Allen Britt was sent down to AAA Yokohama. To make room in the lineup we moved Patrick Shelton to CF and moved Ron Alder to 1B. Ron isn't a first basemen, but we need his bat and speed in the lineup. Gilberto Ramos will be his defensive replacement. We will see how long this experiment lasts.

Game 114
Georgetown 1, Norfolk 3
Tsueno Sato (12-3) continued the hot streak of the starting staff, going 6 innings, allowing 1 run on 9 hits. Carlos Rodriquez picked up the save (28) throwing a perfect 9th. Brian Cline lead the offense with 3 hits and 2 RBI and Jose Rodriquez added 2 hits. That is a good sign, we need his bat (and defense) in the lineup.

Game 115
Norfolk 3, Baltimore 1 (10 innings)
Scott Smith bounced back, from his rocky start, to threw 8 innings of 2 hit ball. He allowed 1 unearned run. Carlos Rodriquez threw the 9th and 10th to take the win (4-3). Rod Alder had two hits including a solo-HR (6) in the first, and Jacob Chaney added 2 hits, including a 2-run single in the 10th.

Game 116
Norfolk 4, Baltimore 5
Don Sweetapple threw 8 innings, giving up 3 runs on 5 hits, and took the ND, as Javier Castro couldn't close out the game (4-4) and the Barons walked off with the win. Carlos Feliciano and Brian Cline each had 2 hits for the Cav's offense.

Game 117
Norfolk 9, Baltimore 6
Carlos Mateo (8-8) grabbed the win, going 5.1 innings, giving up 2 runs on 5 hits. Carlos Rodriquez pitched the 9th for the save (29). The 9 runs was the biggest output for the Cav's this week. Chris Shopland had 3 hits, with a solo HR (5) and Patrick Shelton also had 3 hits (raising his average over.200). Brian Cline (15) and Howard Harper (9) each hit HR's.

Players of the Week:
Delaware: Juan Espinoza (Dover Generals) 11-26 5 HR, 15 RBI
MarVa: Dave Glenn (Annapolis Admirals) 11-25 2 HR, 4 RBI

Power Rankings:
1) Norfolk Cavaliers (117.3)
2) Dover Generals (110.3)
3) Ocean City Tourists (97.8)
4) Wilmington Iron Pigs (97.6)
5) Georgetown Sixteens (95.9)

GM Notes: The offense wasn't weak this weekend, but thanks to our pitching we won some games. Next week will be interesting as we play our division rival Richmond as well as one of the leagues top teams Ocean City (the leader of their Division). Hopefully we can score some runs... We are still #1 in runs against and are #5 in runs for. Sadly we are back to being #8 in batting average... Ron Alder has started 3 games at first and has a ZR of -0.2, better than he was in center (-2.9) so the experiment will continue.

Notable League News: Billy Moore hit HR #50 this week, breaking the season record set by Abraham Thomas.
