The Chiefs began the week by losing the series finale in St. Louis. Then we lost 2 of 3 to the FA leading Gothams, before finishing strong with a weekend series sweep of St. Louis. The 4-3 week brings the season record to .500. This week we have 3 games in Detroit followed by a 3 game weekend series in Chicago with Washington. The series with the Eagles is the beginning of a stretch of 13 straight home games.




After such a good Spring, Ed Reyes is having difficulty adjusting to the real games. What worries me the most is the 0 walks and 7 strikeouts. Reyes did go 3 for 4 in yesterday's win over St. Louis, so we'll see if he can build on that. The week's hottest bat belonged to Bob Martin: .414 with 3 doubles and 1 triple. Len Jones, Mose Christopher, and Bill White each homered this week.




It was a mixed bag of pitching results for the week. Jim Crawford finally had a decent start; he tossed a complete game 3-2 victory over the Gothams. Ron Coles, meanwhile, was knocked around pretty good by New York: 8 runs on 9 hits and 5 walks in 5 innings. With 6 games this week sandwiched around an off day, we'll need just three starters--Crawford, Coles, and Hampton will draw the starting assignments.
