Ian Kennedy picked up the win in his first Double A start although it was more because of the run support then anything.  He gave up four runs on six hits with no walks and six strikeouts in five innings.  The toughest jump is from High A to Double A so some growing pains should be expected and while the ERA looks a bit bloated, this was a decent enough start from someone making his Double A debut.  I’m looking forward to seeing how he does at this advanced level the rest of the season.

Shawn Garrett had a huge day at the plate.  He went three for five with two doubles, a homerun, five RBIs and two runs.  Carlos Mendoza went two for two with a double, three RBIs and a run.
