S8 ROOKIE HIGHLIGHTS


BRANT JACKSON, CIN


Brant Jackson is absolutely tearing it up so far for Cincinnati, contributing 2 3-hit games and slamming home 3 HR. He also has scored 4 runs and knocked in 8 RBI in 4 total games.


BOBBY REESE, SJ


The No. 1 pick from two seasons ago finally had his long awaited debut. Bobby Reese pitched 5 scoreless innings and striking out 8 against the always-tough Philadelphia squad. Philadelphia went on to win the game 7-6.


VIC RIOS, LA


Another first rounder from a couple seasons back, Vic Rios has begun the season at a decent pace. He showed the league that he can be just as effective in the clutch, as he smacked home a solo HR in the 22nd inning to give the LA squad a 2-1 win over San Diego.


GUS KEAGLE, SAL


Another highly anticipated debut came in Salem, where Gus Keagle started against Oklahoma City. Keagle pitched 7 strong innings, giving up only 3 ER as the Lights defeated Oklahoma City 5-3.
