Peavy schools Sardines

Jake Peavy put on a pitching clinic yesterday against the Straphangers. Peavy held the Hangmen to only 3 hits in pitching a complete game shutout, while striking out 14. Peavy becomes the first in the DMBL to 9 wins. Peavy's opponent, Cole Hamels, didn't do too shabby either in the contest. Hamels pitched 8 innings of 4-hit ball and struck out 8, but he gave up two runs, one of which was earned, and ended up on the losing end. It's now eight straight starts by Hamels in which he's given up two earned runs or less.

Tampa Bay pummeled the Newark Sugar Bears 10-3 behind Adrian Gonzalez's 4 RBI and 2 homers. Mark Buehrle held the Sugar Bears to 3 hits and one run in 7 innings. James Loney was 3-4 and Brian Roberts had 3 RBIs for the Plunkers.

Arkansas stunned the Endzone Animals yesterday with an 11-6 victory at the Eagle's Nest. Barry Bonds, Ryan Ludwick, and Adam Dunn each had 3 RBIs and at least one homer (Bonds had two).

Randy Wolf won his final start (7IP, 2 ER, 5 H, 6 K) for the Mighty Men, after getting repeatedly pounded in all his other starts. Unfortunately for Wolf, he still found a pink slip in his locker after the game. The Mighty Men activated starter Micah Owings from the disabled list and needed to make room. Wolf was last seen by the Mighty Men's headquarters throwing eggs with Brett Tomko driving the getaway car.
