Video from tonight’s game against Norfolk.
It’s like the Jiwan James catch, except Domonic actually caught it.

Brody Colvin Promoted to AA
Brody Colvin has gotten the callup from High A Clearwater to AA Reading and is in line to take the rotation spot of recently promoted Jonathan Pettibone. It has been a bumpy road for Colvin who was removed from the Clearwater rotation for a time, presumably to get his head straight after struggling consistently for two months. Colvin, a 7th round pick in 2009, has made 18 starts this year and is 4-6 with a 4.48 ERA in 18 starts. His WHIP as a starter is 1.57 and the opposition is hitting .284 against him. On the brighter side of the equation, Colvin over his last 8 starts is 2-2 with a 3.74 ERA but even during that time period his WHIP is a high 1.51 and the opposition is hitting .301.
Somewhere Adam Morgan, Austin Wright and Jesse Biddle are shaking their heads.
Box Score Recap 7-26-2012
Cameron Rupp with 2 doubles and two walks in 4 trips to the plate. He’s been hot for a long time. Check out his pre/post All-Star splits and you’ll see around 120 PAs with increased power and walk rates. Yes, he is old for the league. Not much he can do about that except maybe hit Sebastian Valle in the knee with a club.
And this from the GCL – Kevin Walter pitched in a professional baseball game. Wild.
