Farmers only crank that Soulja Boy
Triple-A: Justin Lehr had another nice start, but this time he flew too close to a fellow undefeated and got burned as the Bats lost 4-3. Lehr struck out 9 (including his first 4 batters) and Jay Bruce was 0 for 4 with a sac-fly RBI. Drew T. Anderson was 3 for 4 with a double, and David Weathers had a perfect inning with a strikeout in a rehab start. UP NEXT: The Bats play Toledo today at 11 in the morning for little-kiddies-visit-the-park-and-ruin-the-experience-for-grown-ups day.
Low A: Brandon Waring returned to the Dragons' starting lineup (as a DH) and hit two home runs -- including the go-ahead shot in the ninth -- as Dayton won 3-2 at Peoria. Waring had pinch-hit once since last Wednesday, so I assume something was wrong. When I find out what, I'll let you know. He now has a system-best 7 homers (in 21 games) on the season. (These were his first homers since April 16, when he hit 2.) He moved into fifth in the Midwest League in OPS. Todd Frazier is fourth, and Keltavious Jones is third. UP NEXT: Doubleheader at Peoria, starting at 6 tonight.
Chattanooga and Sarasota were off but resume today. On their day off, I heard they were searching through these clips -- the best and worst Soulja Boy spin-off videos on the Internet.
Crank that Nickelodeon.

(If kids these days aren't sick of Soulja Boy yet, I don't know what to Tellem.)

Pitching
Something one of the Bats announcers said a couple of days ago. He said that the Reds told Rick Sweet to stretch out all the bullpen pitchers.
They thought that meant the Bats would have no problem handling extra innings, but no one expected a 17-inning game two days after a 13-inning game. They told a funny story yesterday about how freaked out one of the station guys got when he happened tune in at 1am and heard a baseball game. He thought it was a broadcasting mistake. Then he realized Kevin Barker was on the mound, and really got worried. :-D

Somehow I had already forgotten about Weathers.
And now I’m gonna try hard to forget about that ‘Lion King’ guy.
I don't know how to paint a banana gourd to look like a Power Ranger.

Waring
he was hit by a pitch and left the game a few days ago. I think yesterday was the first time he has played since then.
