Farmers only: Zach strikes back
Triple-A: Ben Jukich got roughed up again as the Bats lost 10-5. He has an 8.68 ERA in his 2 starts for Louisville. Adam Rosales was 2 for 4, and Michael Griffin and Luis Bolivar homered. Rob Mackowiak went hitless again, and his batting average is down to .284. Not to harp on it, but a lot of good that 18-game (corrected) hit streak did.
Double-A: The Lookouts managed just 4 hits in a 7-1 loss. Danny Dorn and Chris Valaika each had a hit, and Sean Watson struck out 1 in a perfect inning.
High A: Juan Francisco had 2 hits and Logan Parker had 3 RBIs in Sarasota's 6-1 win. Scott Carroll struck out 9 in 7 innings, allowing just 1 run. Another hitless inning for Zach Stewart, who has given up 1 earned run in 13 appearances as a pro.
Low A: A day after leaving the game from a severe beaning, Zach Cozart came off the bench to deliver the game-winning hit in the eighth for Dayton's 3-2 victory. There don't appear to have been any fireworks this time, but Dayton has won 5 straight, 10 straight at home and 14 of its past 16 overall. Neftali Soto and Brandon Waring were hitless, and Aguido Gonzalez delivered another scoreless inning for the save.
Rookies: Tony Brown homered again in Billings' 3-2 win. This guy appears to be this year's Waring. Tyler Stovall was 2 for 4 with a homer and is batting .350. ... Humberto Sosa was 2 for 4 with a homer in the G-Reds' 5-1 win. Andrew Bowman, our 5th-round pick last year, struck out 7 in 5 scoreless innings. ... The D-Reds fell 4-0.

So...
...it seems Julio Castillo is still in jail. I was expecting the team to bail him out. He’s going to be ineligible to donate blood if he’s there much longer.

Oh, and what's with the pronunciation guides for "Julio" and "Castillo"?
Well, I suppose they’ll at least help out Brendanukkah.

Contrasting Mackowiak's hitting streak,
just for grins, when Pete Rose hit in 44 consecutive games in 1978 he batted .378 (70-for-182) during the stretch. During the streak, the Reds went 27-17.
During the streak, Pete had 53 singles, 13 doubles, no triples and no home runs. He had 26 one-hit games, 11 two-hit games, six three-hit games and one four-hit game.
Man, it was fun to watch and listen to.

I was watching the DVD of the 75 series a couple of months ago.
I know Rose is a scumbag and has only a tenuous grasp on reality. I get annoyed by his example being used to judge unfavorably Reds stars ever since.
But, watching Rose in action, I find it hard to begrudge those who followed him on a nightly basis their love for him. He is a captivating player to watch; exciting as hell when he’s at the plate and twice as much when he’s on base.
So much so that you notice that even the NBC camera work gets frenetic when he’s on first.
