Sergio Santos has quietly been hitting much better recently. At the end of April his average was at .212/.224/.242 and now he's up to .258/.277/.374 after a 2-6 night. Ryan Robert's only hit of the game was a home run. Mottola had three hits and Barker, Phillips, Cosby and Lydon all had two hits.
Jamie Vermilyea was the recipient of the run support and going 6 innings and giving up 3 runs, 2 earned. Vinnie Chulk pitched two scoreless innings with *5* strikeouts. I suspect he'll be called up sooner rather than later.
NH scored all 4 runs from the long ball. Adam Lind hit 2 home runs giving him 11 home runs in 205 ABs. Vito Chiaravalloti added a solo home run.
Michael MacDonald got the start for the Fisher Cats going 6 2/3 innings with 5 Ks and no walks. He gave up 4 runs on 9 hits.
Ryan Patterson had another strong night going 3-5 with two doubles. Aaron Matthews had two hits, including a home run.
Robert Ray pitched 5 innings, giving up 3 runs on six hits. He had three strikeouts and no walks.
Brian Pettway went 2-4 with a home run to lead the Lansing offense. Jacob Butler went 1-1 (a triple) with two walks.
Kris Bell went 7 innings giving up 2 runs on 5 hits. Stidfole and Phillips pitched scoreless innings to finish the game.
