I'm fighting a bit of a stomach bug tonight, so I'm going to keep this just a little shorter than usual.

Iowa Cubs

The Iowa Cubs destroyed the Oklahoma City RedHawks, 14-2.

Casey Coleman started and picked up his tenth win of the season, going five innings and giving up only one run. He allowed four hits and walked two. He did not have a strikeout. At the plate, Coleman was 2 for 4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored.

Every I-Cub hitter had two hits tonight except for Darwin Barney, who was held hitless. First baseman Micah Hoffpauir hit his 15th home run.  Hoffpauir was 2 for 4 with a double and a walk. He scored three times and knocked two in.
