What are the odds that a guy wearing a helmet-cam makes a bare-handed catch in the crowd at the Biloxi home opener? Apparently, excellent.

Kudos, CS Photography 360, this is absolutely spectacular!

LHP Zach Hirsch's Timber Rattlers tandem partner tonight is 19-year-old RHP David Burkhalter, anxious to see him again. Hirsch did not have a tandem partner in April, but obviously with the first night back situation, will tonight.

Be sure you saw the Manatee All-Star news posted earlier today...

Per @BrewersPD: Timber Rattler LHP Zach Hirsch last pitched on May 2nd with what he described as “just a little elbow tenderness,” so it's clear the organization took caution with a five-week DL stint. Hirsch gets the start tonight as he is activated off the Wisconsin DL. RHP Milton Gomez, the 21-year-old Dominican native who has struggled with a 1.68 WHIP in 40 Timber Rattlers innings, has been transferred to Helena to make room.

Well, in the Fenway case, the ball was in play (groundout to second base). So even if you were intently following the game, and not distracted, your eyes would be drawn to the white baseball and not the spinning lumber heading your way within a second or two. Why are maple bats allowed again?

And today we get news of Alexander's release. JUNE 7th UPDATE: Alexander has signed with Fargo-Moorhead of the independent American Association. Should an affiliated club eventually show interest, Alexander still has that 50 game suspension hanging over him, we believe.
