Greg Maddux's good-bye tour continued yesterday as the legend pitched a 5-hit shutout against Arkansas. It was Maddux's 101st career complete game and 32nd shutout, as well as his 230th victory. The win brought Vancouver to within 1/2 a game of the Morris Division.
Carolina won the rubber match against Hillsborough, eking out a 7-6 victory against the current Morris Division leaders. Dustin Pedroia was 3-4 with 3 runs scored and Grady Sizemore had a 3-run triple in the first that gave the Cats the lead.
Erik Bedard outdueled Adam Wainwright in a 2-0 win for D.C. Both runs scored in the 2nd inning and neither team could come up with any more offense. Bedard pitched 6 innings and allowed only 2 hits, while Wainwright went all 8 innings for Blue Ridge, giving up the two runs on 4 hits. The win was Bedard's 10th of the season.
Hoboken crushed Las Vegas 10-3 as Mike Napoli and Miguel Cabrera each tallied 4 RBIs in the game. Jorge Campillo, making a start in the place of injured Rich Harden, was roughed up for 5 runs in 5 innings. Of course, the Rat bullpen, Taylor Buchholz in particular, did not help put out the fire. Buchholz was responsible for 4 of the remaining 5 runs (3 earned) in only one inning as he served up the 3-run homer to Napoli.
