Could it be that one of the reasons the Phillies are throwing around names like Carrasco, Happ, and Drabek in the trade talks is because they have a sleeper? Yohan Flande, no secret to the HomeSide, won his first game for Reading Sunday with 6.1 shut out innings against Bowie. Flande, who won 7 games for Clearwater before being promoted, allowed just 4 hits and 1 walk, striking out 7 in Reading's 2-0 win over the BaySox. Sergio Escalona and Mike Zagurski got 4 outs each to complete the whitewash. Jeremy Slayden and Gus Milner picked up the RBIs for the R-Phils. Quintin Berry had 2 of the 5 Reading hits, and stole #36.
Down in South Carolina, the BlueClaws made it 4 out of 5 on the road trip with a 5-2 win over the Drive in Greenville. Trevor May is getting better and better, this time going 5 innings and allowing just 1 hit and 3 walks, striking out 9 to improve to 2-1, 2.88 for the season in his 8 games with the 'Claws. Ryan Bergh gave up the runs in his inning, although 1 of 2 was unearned, but Jacob Diekman and B.J. Rosenberg both threw scoreless relief. For Rosenberg, he is up to 23.1 innings having not allowed an earned run.
Jim Murphy (.288, 10th HR, 2 singles, 2 runs, RBI), Vladimir De Los Santos (3 singles, run, RBI) and Troy Hanzawa (.291, 2 singles, double, run, RBI) had 3 hits each for Lakewood and no one else got any!! Usually that is not good enough to win, but this team is finding ways to get the job done.
The Threshers were rained out after Pedro Martinez started for them Sunday against St Lucie. Pedro got out of the first inning unscathed and got the first out in the second before the game was called. The teams will try to make it up before tonight's regular game.
Randy Ruiz (.326) had a single, a double and a walk and 2 RBI (that's 91) for Las Vegas in their 14-9 loss to Tacoma. Elizardo Ramirez went 7 strong innings in Oklahoma City, leading the RedHawks to a n 11-1 win over Nashville. "Easy" is now 7-7 on the year, with a 4.08 ERA.
