Five: Mass Reliever Lovefest
I don’t have time for full player-by-player breakdowns, but I’ll run through the guys that really helped their teams yesterday by level.
Iowa: 4.2 scoreless innings from a combination of Brad Wieck, Adam Morgan and Jason Adam. Morgan’s up to five scoreless innings with Iowa, which really makes me wonder when the opt-out date off his minor league contract might be.
Tennessee: Really nice job by Manny Rodriguez to get five outs across two innings with less than ideal circumstances.
South Bend: My tweet left off southpaw Brandon Hughes, who was brilliant in this one! He, Burl Carraway, and Eury Ramos kept Bain’s shutout in tact. Ramos up to 98 mph on the stadium gun in the closer role.

OPELIKA, Ala. (AP) A former Alabama prosecutor set for trial on ethics charges next month repeatedly failed to handle office finances properly and should have to repay money, a state audit found.
Suspended Lee County District Attorney Brandon Hughes did not have procedures for handling cash or credit card transactions and failed to ensure money was being spent only for proper, law enforcement-related needs, according to a report by the Examiners of Public Accounts that cited failures in seven areas.
While an office manager was able to avoid paying $3,406 in questioned charges following a hearing, Hughes failed to appear for a hearing and is still liable for an unspecified amount of money related to a unit that collects money from worthless checks, the report said.

Shelby Miller made another rehab start tonight and there was some good news and less good news. Miller pitched 3.1 innings and gave up just one unearned run on three hits. But he did walk three batters while striking out four. He threw 64 pitches and 37 were strikes.
Adrian Sampson made his Cubs organization debut when he entered the game in the sixth inning. He was quite good for three innings, keeping the Saints from scoring in all three. But then he came out to pitch the bottom of the ninth and gave up a solo walk-off home run to Ryan Jeffers, the first batter he faced.
