Miners on the move!

The Miners had a new right fielder Wednesday in rookie Eric Suttle, a recent Georgia State University product brought to Pinto's attention by scouts in the Chicago White Sox organization. Suttle batted .343 with 24 RBI as a senior, striking out just 15 times in 181 at-bats. He introduced himself with a nice running catch that earned him the "Defensive Player of the Game" honor on the stadium video board, an honor given out before the ninth inning started. ... With Suttle batting eighth in the lineup, Willie Keene was moved into the designated hitter's spot as Simon played first base for a second straight night. ... At least one person wasn't impressed with Scanzano's amazing play in the ninth. "He took a routine play and made it look spectacular like he does all the time," Hall said. "Sometimes pretty looks a little more pretty than it needs to. His overall lack of athleticism makes him have to make plays like that." This opinion drew an immediate reaction from Scanzano and a full-blown mock argument developed. "They're constantly ribbing each other so that doesn't surprise me," Pinto said.
