He's Berry, Berry hot!!

I just couldn't help myself, but Quintin Berry had 3 more hits Saturday night to extend the hitting streak to 18 games in the Thresher's 5-4 loss in Fort Myers. "Q" also drove in 2 runs, raising his total to 36, and his average has climbed all to way to .279. Fidel Hernandez (.238) also picked up 3 hits for Clearwater. Drew Naylor (1-6, 6.95 since promotion) got through 6 frames, allowing all 5 runs on 11 hits and 2 walks. Alex Concepcion continues to show no ill effects from that line drive to the knee, as he and Brian Schlitter each tossed a scoreless inning in relief.

I believe it is Carlos Monasterios turn today as Clearwater returns home to face Dunedin.

In Sarasota Saturday, Toms River East Little League star Todd Frazier hit a game winning home run for the Reds in the 15th inning, his 10th of the season, for the Cincinnati affiliate.

In Visalia, California, Matt Spencer pounded 3 more hits, including his 2nd home run this week as the Stockton Ports defeated to Oaks, 12-11. Spencer is 26 for 58 (that's .448) in 14 games since being traded over to the A's, with 7 doubles, 2 homers and 8 RBI.
