  John Bowker is going to see some time in the post season after all.  The Philadelphia Phillies acquired Bowker who was hitting .308 for AAA Indianapolis with 15 bombs in 415 at-bats.  Good luck to Bowker.

Mercerboy is back in black and he reaches deep to pull off one of his best performances of the year at the 4:00 mark. Brilliant.

The Pittsburgh Pirates have some seriously talented young pitchers.

  We are big fans of Pedro Alvarez.
