Playoff Races:

Greenville - It's complicated. They are 11 1/2 GB of Savannah for the second half crown. As long as it is Savannah they are behind, however, it is good, as Savannah WON the first half. So... the team with the second best OVERALL record in the division will gain a playoff spot. The Drive are 1/2 games AHEAD of Asheville for that spot.

Lowell is 2 1/2 GB of Tri-Valley for Stedler Division Crown. Lowell is 2 GB of West Virginia for Wild-Card.

GCL Red Sox are in the Playoffs.

Ho hum...Benintendi with a three run HR in the first and Moncada with a two run triple in the third.

I don't quite understand why neither player is getting a taste of High A this year. Personally, I thought Benintendi should have been promoted straight to Salem from Lowell, and Moncada has looked like he can handle AA let alone High A the last few months
