Norfolk 0 Toledo 1 (8th inning in progress)
With The Sopranos about to start, I’m cheating and writing this one up before it ends. But really, you’re just wondering how Kenny Rogers did anyways. Rogers went 3 2/3 and allowed 3 hits, no runs, no walks, and fanned 2. Two of the hits were singles, and the other was a double. So as long as he feels okay tomorrow, he’ll likely make his next start at West Michigan this weekend. Chris Shelton had 2 doubles for the offense.
New Hampshire 5 Erie 13
Clete Thomas picked up 3 hits and Andres Torres doubled and tripled. Kody Kirkland continued his solid hitting with 2 more doubles today. Jon Connolly allowed 4 runs on 4 hits and 4 walks over 5 1/3 innings with 7 K’s.
Lakeland 5 Sarasota 11 7th inning in progress
Again, invoking The Sopranos rule here. Wilkin Ramirez knocked his 6th homer and added another hit. Lucas French was rocked for 7 runs on 3 homers in 5 1/3 innings. Paul Hammond allowed 4 runs, 3 earned, and retired nobody.
West Michigan 2 Dayton 3 11 innings
Only 5 singles for the Whitecaps offense today. Brennan Boesch had one of them plus 3 walks. Eleazar Aponte allowed 2 runs on 7 hits, 2 walks and 8 K’s over 6 innings.

You’re a Soprano fan, too. The ending was hard for me to take. But they definitely left it open for a movie.
May have to stop on the way to Lake Michigan this weekend to see Kenny pitch Friday night. Last time I saw him live it was in the playoffs in front of 40,000 people. Now, eight months later, he’ll be pitching in single A ball in front of 5,000 people.
Anyway, good news that his rehab seems to be proceeding quickly and without issues.
