Watch Jackson in Action

In case you were thinking that Andre Jackson has a really good changeup, you would be correct. Also, for those that have followed his year in OKC, it’s taken a lot of hard work & grit for Andre to get back to this moment. Not a bad outing all things considered.

Watch Bruihl get out #27

Boom! Justin Bruihl got it Done and the Dodgers beat the Giants AGAIN!

AAA OKC Dodgers

Albuquerque scored 3 in the bottom of the first, but the Dodgers responded with a 3 spot of their own in the 3rd, 5th, and 6th innings, and then held on to beat the Isotopes, the AAA affiliates of the Rockies, 11-7 Sunday afternoon.

Watch Robles Deal

Hansel Robles was 97 on his 4-seam and 86-88 on his slider and threw a scoreless inning. Robles hasn’t allowed a run in 3 of his last 4 outings. It will be interesting to see if he can string some consistency together and make a run at helping LA.
