Nick Hagadone continues to demand a promotion with his play upon the ball field. Tonight, Nick picked up his second win of the season in a 6-3 Akron victory. Hagadone scattered three hits over two and a third and struck out one to run his 2011 scoreless innings streak to 17. Soon, the Indians will be forced to make room for him at AAA.
Kinston was able to finish up Tuesday's suspended game and take a 5-1 win. Adam Miller pitched the 9th for the little Indians and was much more successful than in his first appearance. Miller (13.50 ERA) pitched around a hit and a walk in a clean frame, striking out one. Best of continued luck to Adam, both because the man has endured long enough in order to get into games and because he would eventually be a nice addition to big league 'pen.
Lake County 1-hit Bowling Green, defeating the Hot Rods 4-0 to open their series. Seven innings came from Mike Rayl, who did allow the hit but fanned 11 against zero walks. Rayl, a 15th round pick in 2009 who will turn 22 in November, has started 3-0 with a 2.08 ERA for the Captains. Derek Dietrich struck out in each and every one of his three plate appearances.
Cheers.
