    Looks fake, but pretty damn scary to get hit in the face. It is why I could never play baseball. I'm amazed the injuries aren't worse.

    Jon Singleton is back at it again. He just hit a 3-run homer (7) to put OKC up 5-0 on Memphis in the 6th

    Three strikeouts too. Smh. Love the dingers, but he's going to have to learn to use the whole field.

    Singleton absolutely on fire

    Correa 3X3 last night also with a double and triple

    And V V might end up being the best of the pitchers before it is all said and done, the cali league isn't giving him much competition, 7 hits allowed and 23 K's so far after another 5 shutout innings last night

    This is so much better to talk about than the big league team right now

    Home run Sunday... Matt Duffy, Leo Haras, and Telvin Nash all have home runs in Corpus. That's #1 for all of them.

    Nash is gonna Nash...10 at bats, 5 Ks thus far in AA.

    Stassi has a homer today as well (back to back games now).

    Thomas Shirley is having a GREAT start to the season at Corpus. Good to see him finally healthy.

    Yep. Shirley's K-rate dropped some in Lancaster, which gives you pause, but he's back to his A-ball rate in CC.
