July 10, 200619 yr Jamestown Jammers (Florida Marlins) THE WEEK THAT WAS: The Jammers went 4-3 last week, improving their overall record to 8-9 and climbing up from the bottom of the NYPL's Pinckney Division. They are currently fourth in the division and just two games back of leader Mahoning Valley. WHO'S HOT/WHO'S NOT: Jacob Blackwood is batting .316 with a home run, four RBIs and seven runs scored over his last 10 contests ... John Raynor is hitting at a .348 pace in his last nine ball games, to go along with a pair of home runs, eight RBI and nine runs scored ... Kyle Winters has allowed one earned run over 13 innings in his last two starts, both wins ... Justin Webb is batting .143 in his last nine games. SETTLING DOWN IN JAMESTOWN: After giving up 10 runs to the State College Spikes in the series opener, Jamestown pitching settled down and allowed only four runs in the next two games, both Jammers wins. Manager Bo Porter told the Jamestown Post-Journal that his team's ability to adjust was "great fundamental baseball." QUOTE OF THE WEEK: "You look for mound presence, especially with young guys. When they got the bases loaded [sinkbeil] kind of stepped off the rubber, got to the back of the mound, took a deep breath and he really bore down. That tells you something about the young man." - Jamestown manager Bo Porter told the Jamestown Post-Journal after Brett Sinkbeil, the Marlins No. 1 draft pick, got the Jammers out of a bases-loaded, no-outs ... well, jam ... with two strikeouts and a groundout in the Jammers' 5-1 win over State College July 6.
