1. Cole Tucker (S) 2B

2. Yoshi Tsutsugo (L) RF

3. Ben Gamel (L) CF

4. Colin Moran (L) 1B

5. Anthony Alford (R) LF

6. Michael Perez (L) C

7. Kevin Newman (R) SS

8. Hoy Park (L) 3B

9. Wil Crowe (R) P

No Reynolds? I guess he needs a rest to prepare for the offseason on Monday. Too bad he's fighting to get up to .300. The prepostseason rest is more important.

It's been the Cole Tucker show so far, and I'm glad to see us playing Newman at SS and Tucker at 2B. With shifts as common as they are, I think that's our strongest defensive alignment. Tucker can help us compensate for Moran's range limitations. For some reason, Newman is better defensively at SS than 2B.

Anyone know what those white pillows are for on the dirt? Seems like Gamel was afraid to touch one.

The people right behind me have got 3 foul balls!

Incredible play by Tucker to rob a hit and turn it into a DP. A month ago I thought there was no way he'd be on the 40 man roster next year. But I now think he has saved his spot with a good month of hitting and fielding.

No exaggeration - that may be the finest (greatest) defensive play I’ve ever seen. I reserve the right to watch on replay, but watching live at PNC it looked literally impossible for Tucker to get to that ball. Add the incredible play he made on a foul ball in the 2nd or 3rd inning, and he proved to me this guy is ++!in the field.

Replay won't change your mind. It was sensational!
