I like the first 3 at bats by Kayfus [homer and walk and walk again] and Genao [walk another walk and single] Bazzana also patient was called out on strikes his first two ABs and walked the next Ingle with a couple singles his first 2 ab's and then a walk
Of course were probably batting against fellow AA pitchers but still nice approach to hitting, as the G's teach and expect

Just about the only position player in camp who hasn't appeared is DeLauter. What' wrong now?
