LF Oscar Gonzalez: 3-for-4, 2B (4), 3B (1), 2 RS, BB

RF Jose Rojas: 2-for-3, RBI, RS, BB
3B Jeter Downs: 0-for-2, 2 SF, 2 RBI
Productive Outs!

C Ben Rice: 0-for-4, K
Rice is down to .238/.365/.454 in 157 PA. He is only 10-for-49 in May with a .286 SLG, his calling card. Everyone goes through slumps!

Speaking of under-the-radar, Richardson is at .294/.348/.490 (11 doubles, 3 HR, 19 RBI, 16 R, 6.3% BB, 25% K). Yeah, Richardson is a bit of a free-swinging type.

2.88 ERA (25 IP, 16 H, 10 R, 8 ER, 1 HR, 13 BB, 27 K). A lefty who can touch 96.7 MPH (which he did tonight) is worth watching.
