D'Arby Myers continued his hot hitting, banging out 3 more hits (2 of them doubles) as the BlueClaws pounded the Power, 8-2. D'Arby is smoking hot right now, having reached base 8 of his last 9 at bats. I have to hand it to him, D'Arby has stayed ready to go, and despite not playing over long stretches has remained focused, and is making the most of his opportunity now. He is 10 for 25 (that's .400) in his current 8-game hitting streak. Way to go , D'Arby!! Anthony Gose (.284) and Jim Murphy (.291) both stayed hot with 2 hits each , and Jesus Sanchez recorded his 4th win, going 6 strong innings, and giving up just 1 UNearned run on 4 hits and 2 walks. Jacob Diekman threw 2 perfect innings, and Jared Simon threw the 9th, allowing 1 run on 1 hit. Diekman has now thrown 6.1 scoreless innings in a row over his last 4 appearances.
