To his night, he feels he should
While Casey Mize registered a quality start for the Detroit Tigers in the loss to the Chicago White Sox last night, Matt Manning struggled again for Toledo, Yariel Gonzalez continues to extend his hit streak to 16 games, and Spencer Torkelson and Dillon Dingler power the Whitecaps to victory.
Memphis Redbirds 10, Toledo Mud Hens 6 (F/7)(Gm 1)(box) Matt Manning got absolutely clobbered again, and despite a strong performance from the offense, the Hens couldn’t overcome it.

Chicago — Nothing against his teammates in Toledo, but Derek Hill would just as soon not see them for a while. “The boys down there are doing unbelievable,” he said. “It’s a fun team to be on. But I can’t wait to be on this one.” For the second time this season, the Tigers have
