Kid still hasn't given up a run as a pro. I'm still not ready to prefer him to Lewis yet though!

Do they always cap guys at 3-4 innings at these lower levels? I figured he would be stretched out a bit by now.

Yeah, basically.

Some dude from NY just tweeted Anderson promoted to Danville

those four guys have really pitched well. I wonder if they have outperformed the norm for similarly drafted players in rookie ball?

They do a lot of practice in the heat outside of games and players can get worn out by it. Pretty sure they also throw 90% fastballs. I've heard reports that they can only throw breaking pitches with 2 strikes.

[IslandBrave]

DPete with his 9th HR of the year. 2-4 tonight.

[Tapate50]

Not a bad night for the pitchers. Povse has really stepped up this year.
