Box Score Bytes - Game 103

- Game 38 of the Great Tracy Experiment: Record 13-25.  White comes back from AAA and has a pretty decent start.  Goes 5.1 innings, leaves with the loss but keeps things close for once and Rox offense takes over and wins one giving White a no decision.  Really this is the formula for success that has been lacking.  If Starter's could just learn to give the offense time instead of allowing them to step to the plate for their first at bat and already being behind.  Starter's record is now 5-19 with 14 no decisions and bullpen record of 8-6.

- Rutledge goes deep for the four straight game, becoming Rox first rookie to do so.  Be nice if this can continue but scouts will make adjustments and we shall see if he can make them too.  A middle infield with Tulo and Josh could be a big bonus next year.

- First win for Rox at home in 8 games.  Yikes this year has truly been miserable.

- Pacheco, who is probably having one of the quieter good seasons, had his 5th three hit game of the season.  He is batting .307 at this point.

- Helton had his 9,000th plate appearance and drew a walk...wow that is a lot of pitches!
