Farmers Only: Excitement! Winning baseball! Great pitching! (Note: None of that happened.)

The 6 Reds minor league teams combined to lose 3 games 27-9 on Wednesday night.  I don't have much else to say.

• Louisville was off.  They play a doubleheader against Indianapolis starting at 5:30.  Ramon Ramirez is the starter for the first game, and although there's no starter listed, Ben Jukich should take the ball in game 2.
• Carolina lost 9-3 to Chattanooga.  Lee Tabor got lit up in his first start in AA, and Jerry Gil bounced back to pitch 2 2/3 of scoreless relief.  Todd Frazier was 2-for-3 with a double.  Up next: The Mudcats take on the Lookouts again at 7:15.  Jordan Smith takes on former Reds farmhand Travis Chick.
• Sarasota was rained out again.  They'll try the doubleheader thing tomorrow, with Travis Webb and Luis Montano starting at 5.
• Dayton lost to Fort Wayne 8-6.  Enrique Rojas had three hits and Cody Puckett went deep and drove in 3 runs.  Not much else happened.  Up next: Lance Janke takes on Fort Wayne at 7.
• Billings were blanked 10-0 by Helena.  Tim Crabbe was disappointing in his first start of the season, and the relievers that followed weren't much better.  The Mustangs only managed 5 hits total, with two of them coming off the bat of Humberto Sosa.  Up next: Justin Walker takes on Helena at 9:05.
• The GCL Reds were off.  They take on the GCL Rays at noon.
• Roster Moves: Jared Burton is now on the Louisville roster with Drew Sutton's callup to the big club.  4th round pick Mark Fleury has been assigned to Billings.
