Josh Kroeger back for Iowa as a DH today. Iowa owned Hochevar the last time lets see how this game goes.

If Kroeger goes on a hot streak again I wouldn't mind seeing him play RF for a bit over Fox

Good to see Kroeger back in the lineup. Hochevar struggled in AAA so far, it's disappointing Iowa hasn't cracked a run through 4.

 

Gary Hughes was in the Tennessee broadcast for a long time (I started listening in the 2nd and he left at the 7th inning stretch). Just interesting to listen to.

 

Veal: 6 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 8 K/3 BB, WP, balk, 5 GO-5 FO. Solid outing for Donnie.

Raisin - Was there anything Gary Hughes said that would interest us? I'd really like to hear it if you remember anything specific. Thanks!
