Thx! It was a streak that was meant to be broken.I just want to break up the @JM3 streak to reiterate how awesome it is.

How can Portland do Teal Night without Teel? Would have been a good reason to promote him.Triple Tyler again. Sikes still out, & as mentioned above Bonaci.
The double DH is an aggressive alignment. If I was them, I'd probably let Hickey catch.

Penrod struck out the 1st 2 hitters in the 6th, but then allowed a walk & a single before getting out of the inning. He's thrown 85 pitches.

Of course, they've walked our best hitter in both of his PAs so not sure if it should count anyway.Augusta is bringing in their 3rd pitcher of the game to try to keep their NO HITTER going.

Oh, those Cyclones unis are just awesome.
