LET YOUR LYNX FLOW...

The Lynx finally got their deuxieme circuit du comp of the season tonight when Lou Collier hit a three-run dinger in the early stages of an eventual 10-4 win (boxscore, play-by-play) in Louisville. It's funny how the hits and runs can eventually pile up when you have a good team that plays sound baseball, unlike that other professional baseball team in Ontario.

That puts them only 10 behind Indianapolis for the second-lowest home run total in the International League, but enough about that. Relievers John Ennis and Joe Bisenius have been on a mini-roll in middle relief. Ennis lowered his early-season ERA to 0.59 and picked up the win in relief of a so-so J.A. Happ. Meantime, Bisenius did not allow a hit across the seventh and eighth innings when it was a one-run game. As noted before, if the Lynx can ever start consistently hitting the odd ball off or over the fences, they'll be a very dangerous ballclub and well worth watching here in Ottawa.
