Mussina picks up milestone win against slumping Cutters

The Cutters kept their streak intact - unfortunately for them. The slide hit 8 games in the 8-3 defeat to the Mighty Men. The Cutters gave Mark Buehrle his first start of the year, but it did not go well. Buehrle lasted 5.2 innings, giving 7 runs (5 earned) on 10 hits. Meanwhile, Marietta started Mike Mussina pitched a solid game to improve to 8-2 on the season. The win, Mussina's 169th of his career, tied Kevin Brown for # 8 on the all time list. Moose is now only one behind Tom Glavine (170) and two behind John Smoltz (171), both of whom are inactive this year.

The Sugar Bears once again rallied to win, this time taking a victory from D.C. 6-5. D.C. held a 5-2 lead in the 8th, but the Sugar Bears scored two in the inning to make it a 5-4 ballgame. In the top of the 9th, Jonathan Papelbon retired the two of the first three batters, giving up a single to Jason Giambi. But after giving up another single, lefty Arthur Rhodes was brought in to face Jack Cust. Cust proceeded to smash a hard liner past the first baseman for a double, scoring both runners. Joey Devine retired the side in order to pick up his 9th save.

The Arkansas Falcons scored 8 times in the late innings of yesterday's game against Hillsborough to pick up an 11-5 win. Lance Berkman was 2-5 with a homer and 4 RBIs. Jeremy Affeldt, signed yesterday afternoon, was put to the test immediately and picked up a 3-inning save.
