The Rat Pack administered the biggest ass-whooping of the preseason so far - a 22-6 pounding of the Golden Falcons. Jeff Keppinger went 6-7 with 3 RBIs and a triple. Jim Thome hit two homers and was 4-5 with 5 RBIs. Joe Mauer was 4-6 with 5 RBIs. The Falcons went through ten pitchers, eight of which gave up at least one earned run, surrendering 25 hits and 12 walks overall.
Dan Haren had an impressive outing and Ryan Howard had two homers to lead the Hitmen to a 7-1 drubbing of the D.C. Bushslappers. Haren struck out 10 and allowed 6 hits and one run in 8 innings of work. Howard had 5 RBIs in the game.
Kenji Johjima had two homers and 7 RBIs in the Plunkers' 10-1 win over Team Buddah. Roy Oswalt pitched a complete game 5-hitter and struck out nine to improve to 3-0.
Jarrod Washburn pitched a 3-hit shutout against the Sardines. Washburn struck out 7. Opponent Dallas Braden wasn't quite so impressive, leaving in the second inning after surrendering seven runs and six hits.
Bombers' outfielder Eric Byrnes was one single shy of hitting for the cycle in a 7-4 win over the Mighty Men. Byrnes doubled to lead off the second inning, then homered in the third. He was walked in the fifth inning, then hit the triple in the seventh inning. With one more chance in the ninth inning, Byrnes popped out to the first base side.

Cutters cuttin' it up
The Hoboken Cutters have rocketed up into the sixth overall spot with a four-game winning streak. Jarrod Washburn improved to 12-6 with a win over the struggling Las Vegas Rat Pack yesterday. The Cutters thumped the Rats 12-4, behind Player of the Week Ian Kinsler's 3-4, 3-RBI night. The Cutters had a decent 13 hits in the game, but racked up 12 walks.
Joe Saunders' luck ran out last night, sort of. Saunders only threw eight pitches in the game, but after a lengthy rain delay, Don Mattingly decided it would be best to pull the youngster. And though the Sugar Bear pen was solid, only allowing two runs in the final 8 2/3 innings, it was enough to stick Saunders with the loss. Roy Oswalt, fresh from a recent DL stint, pitched brilliantly for Honolulu, allowing only one unearned run in six innings, while striking out four. The shaky Tom Gordon pitched the final two innings for his 15th save.
David Ortiz's two homers gave Vancouver a much-needed victory over Sardine City yesterday. Ortize drove in six runs while hitting his 29th and 30th homers of the year. Vancouver is now sitting on the outside looking in from seventh place. Greg Maddux pitched a strong game to improve to 8-4 on the season.
A 4-run eighth inning propelled the Buddahs to a 7-3 victory over Marietta yesterday. Austin Kearns and Yuniesky Betancourt both hit homers in the inning. Kearns was 3-3 and Nomar Garciaparra had a 3-run homer in the contest.
