not everyone has the MLB package, nor took advantage of the 1 Farm System you could choose to watch.

I don’t have the MLB package. You just go to the Bally Sports Live website and the games are free to watch.

Springfield yielded a better crowd than you have in Midland tonight

Ixan gets the opening K... lead off batter was extremely undisciplined...Ixan wasn't near the zone.

Ixan gets DeVries to pop up.......

Seeing guys like Ugueto and Moquete in this starting lineup at CF & LF, it sure seems like we need more upgrades on outfielders in the system.

Davis is injured, and Levenson has sucked for 3 straight playoff games, so he gets a night off.

yeah...I agree, though...we need better OF's

Too early in the game to bunt in that situation. I hate sacrificing an out that high up in the lineup.
