Gary Brown starts to heat up for Fresno
from the Fresno Bee:
Grizzlies Report for 5/12: Fresno 7, Memphis Redbirds 4, 11 innings - Fresno Grizzlies - fresnobee.com:
Brown warming up: After a slow first month, Grizzlies outfielder Gary Brown is starting to heat up. Brown, one of the top prospects in the San Francisco Giants' farm system, went 3 for 6 with a double and two RBIs. His season average is up to .220. But Brown, who typically starts off each season slow, is hitting .326 in his past 10 games with two home runs and six RBIs, along with three steals. Brown, however, still must work on his strikeout-to-walk ratio, which was 15-2 in the past 10 games and 38-9 for the season.
Cardinals prospect Oscar Tavaras big swing
Prospect goes down: Redbirds outfielder Oscar Taveras, rated the No. 3 overall prospect, injured his right ankle during a slide into second base during the ninth inning with the game tied at 4. Taveras, considered the top prospect in the St. Louis Cardinals organization, is considered day-to-day. The 20-year-old finished 2 for 5 to raise his average to .317, and has four home runs and 20 RBIs.

SAN FRANCISCO – After his last start against the Phillies, the eighth outing in a span of 10 by the Giants' rotation that did not qualify as a quality start, Tim Lincecum said he expected there would be some discussion among the five about righting what has been an up-and-down month and a half to start the season.The topic was broached in the following days, Lincecum said Sunday, though apparently not in any formal setting."I mean, it's just kind of one of those things where we kind of kick each other in the ass," Lincecum said.Metaphorical or not, the intended effect showed over the final three games of the Giants' series win over the Braves, punctuated by a 5-1 win Sunday in what Lincecum readily acknowledged was his best start of the season.
