The NSI Minor League Report: Bats Have Gone Cold

Tuesday 5/19

Scranton and Trenton both lost, as their bats have gone cold. Both teams had solid starting pitching (Kei Igawa and Wilkins De La Rosa) and good bullpen help, but the hitters didn't do their job. Austin Jackson did go 2 for 4 with a double to raise his average to .344. He still hasn't hit a homer, but the power will come later.

Tampa had a doubleheader rained out, while Charleston was off.
