The NSI Minor League Report: Baby Bombers Sweep

Monday 4/13

Austin Jackson went 3 for 5 to increase his batting average to .500 (rough transistion to AAA). After having 1 hit in the opener, he's gotten at least 2 hits in the next 4 games. Juan Miranda was named Hitter of the Week, after getting 11 RBI's in the first 4 games. David Robertson, was the winning pitcher, after going 3 innings with 1 hit & walk, and 7 strikeouts.

In Tampa, Luis Sojo (Mgr) seems to be rotating Jesus Montero and Austin Romine at catcher and DH in 2 or 3 game clusters, unlike last year, where it was 1 game at DH and the next at catcher. Both Romine and Montero seem to be waking out of their early slumps.
