Remember when Josh Phelps was going to be a monster hitter in the middle of the Jays lineup? These days he's doing his damage as a Mud Hen.
The affiliates were 1-2 with a couple dismal performances from the bats in NH and Syracuse.
Syracuse 0 @ Toledo 2 (16 innings)
Old friend Josh Phelps ended the game with a 2 run HR in the bottom of the 16th. Yes, the game was scoreless for 15 and a half innings. So there must be good pitching and poor hitting?
Yes. Dustin McGowan had a fine outing. He pitched 6 innings giving up 4 hits and 1 walk while striking out 9. Marcum, Gronk, and League each pitched two scoreless innings and DeJong pitched 3 scoreless innings. Ormond gave up the game winning HR.
Ryan Roberts had 3 hits and Mottola and Jova each had 2 hits.
Portland 8 @ NH 0
Michael MacDonald had a rough outing. He gave up 5 runs on nine hits in 5 innings, including 2 HRs.
Lind, Davenport and Cannon each had two hits for the Fisher Cats.
Dunedin - No game
Lansing 9 @ South Bend 2
Finally, some runs. Three home runs were hit in this game for the Nuts - by Patton, Butler, and Hicks. Butler and Hicks each had two hits while Garibaldi had three singles.
Cheng got the start for Lansing. He gave up 2 runs over 5 innings. Cheng struck out 3, walked 2, and gave up 7 hits (4 doubles).
Three Starts!

2 - David Hicks
