  1. XST was behind when I left, Shull left the game after the first shaking his arm, not a good sign. Swilley pitched OK, but had quite a few PB/WP with Olivares that looked like they were not "on the same page" as they say. Malm had a rocket double to right center to knock in a run early, but the offense was pretty non-existent after that. Havlicek pitched well in his couple of innings, for a kid who tops in the mid-80's he does well, getting three K's on slow breaking balls in one inning. O'Malley making progress, he slipped on a base and rolled his ankle but remained in the game, which is good news. Sale had his left wrist taped, so was non-participatory but Vettelson was taking BP after getting beaned last week so good news bad news there.

  2. Blah, not good to hear that about Sale. Wrist injuries can linger.
