Things worth mentioning…

• Marco Estrada had his best start of the year, going 6 IP and staying in the game over 5 innings for only the third time this season. He allowed no runs on 4 hits.
• In his first start of the season, Anthony Alford scored a run and notched his first hit of the year.
• Luke Maile was fuego again today, gunning out a runner at second and then making a sweet play at home to end the inning.

• Aldemys Diaz was carted off the field in the fifth, and according to Arash Madani, X Rays were negative for a fracture. The team did announce, however, that he suffered a left ankle sprain.

• Gibby was thrown out of today’s contest, being two games in a row he’s been ejected and the third time in 5 games. Unlike yesterday’s strike zone issues, Gibby had come out of the dugout to argue a balk called on Ryan Tepera in the eighth inning.
