First, here is a rundown of articles on Billy Hamilton becoming The Highlander of steals.
You can see the video at most of those links as well. For some reason I am never able to get the Milb.com videos to work when I embed them. Right now, Hamilton is sitting at 147 steals with 12 games left to add to it. He could reach 160 by the end of the season at his current pace. What is even better in my opinion though, is that after last night, Hamilton now leads both the California League and Southern League in steals.
Speaking of steals, Jonathan Reynoso leads the Arizona League in steals with 28. Theo Bowe is currently third in the California League in steals, behind Hamilton and Rico Noel of Lake Elsinore.
Tomorrow I will put up the second round of the Pensacola videos with some thoughts.
Playoff Updates
Louisville has long been eliminated from the playoffs.
Pensacola is 4 games back of Montgomery with 12 games left.
Bakersfield won the first half and will be in the playoffs.
Dayton is 8 games back with 13 games to go.
Billings is currently in first place with a 3 game lead and 15 games left.
AZL Reds have already been eliminated.
With the way things look it is probable that two of our teams will be in the playoffs with Bakersfield who is already qualified and Billings who has a solid lead with just over two weeks left.
