"B" boys blank Mets 2-0....

"B" boys as in Connecticut starter Brooks McNiven and Tyler "Bomber" Von Schell. McNiven had his best start going 7 innings scattering 8 hits, no walks and two Ks to improve to 4-3. Osiris Matos got the two inning save, his fourth of the season, to complete the shutout.
Von Schell, who went 3 for 4 last night and scored three runs, figured in both Defender runs tonight. In the second he homered to left(see pic), his second since getting here Saturday, to put the Defs up 1-0. In the fourth he singled and came clugging around on Simon Klink's two out triple to close out the scoring.
Catcher Dayton Buller had his Double A debut tonight and made an immediate impact throwing out two Mets trying to steal in the first inning. He also started a rally ending double play in the Mets half of the fourth.

Misc fan notes: The Frisco Fry Shack, open for business for just the second time this season!
Just under 4,000 tonight, wish there was more.
Belated congrats to the Defenders All-Stars: Eugenio Velez, John Bowker, Stev Holm, Alex Hinshaw, and Geno Espineli.
Strange play of the night and one I've never seen before: With two outs and a 1-2 count on Mets CF Corey Coles and Coles jawing with the home plate ump over the previous pich that was called a strike. Coles didn't get back into the batter box in the alloted time and a automatic strike was called ending the inning and Coles was then ejected for agruing that call.
