Blundering Herd back at it
Memo to Mets fans: Good luck with Ollie Perez pitching tonight against the Dodgers. Memo to Bisons fans: I'm out of things to say about a 28-53 team that already has 32 home losses and is 2-16 at home in its division.
OK, officially the Bisons and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees meet tonight in Coca-Cola Field. Lance Broadway is on the mound for Buffalo as the Herd tries to snap its six-game home losing streak. Tyler Myers, the Sabres' 6-foot-8 defensive prospect just threw a ceremonial first pitch from the mound.
He looked about 7-foot-3 out there and the pitch was high -- with Buster Bison making a leaping sno-cone grab. Wonder if that will be the highlight of the night.
The Herd lineup:
Cory Sullivan, cf
Jesus Feliciano, lf
Chip Ambres, rf
Emil Brown, dh
Mike Lamb, 1b
Javier Castillo, 3b
Rene Rivera, c
Wilson Valdez, ss
Luis Rivera, 2b
