Scorpions only get 2 hits in a 8-0 rout.

Augenstein gets the loss, which is unfortunate because he pitched really well again for 4IP. Layne and Watson really let it get out of reach, giving up 5 runs in the 6th, all of which count against Layne as Watson walked in inherited runners. 3 games left to play until the off season.

Diamond Notes:

* Thomas Neal got the first hit of the day, going 1-2 with a BB. He also stole a base today, giving him 10 on the season and the league lead. His last AB was a battle too, he fouled off 4 pitches and finally broke his bat on a ball popped to 3B. It was a 9 pitch AB.

* Buster Posey was back behind the dish catching. He went 0-3 but had good contact. He also had a pick off at 1B on a snap throw.

* Steve Edlefsen came in for the 7th giving up a lead off triple which scored on an error. He also induced another double play. Lowering his ERA to 2.25.
