Today's Game: The Dayton Dragons (affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds) meet the Lansing Lugnuts (affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays) in the last game of a four-game series. The Dragons will try for the series sweep tonight.

Record within Reach: The Dragons have won nine consecutive home games (beginning August 13). The club record for consecutive home wins in 10, set in 2008 (July 7-25). The streak in 2008 featured the infamous fight with the Peoria Chiefs on July 24. The 2008 Dragons included future Reds Zack Cozart and Devin Mesoraco.

Individual Notes * Brantley Bell has five consecutive two-hit games. He has reached base 25 times over his last 11 games (14 hits, 9 walks, 2 HBP). He is batting .412 (14 for 34) over these 11 games. * Nick Senzel has 25 extra base hits in 49 games with the Dragons. The only player in Dragons history to average more than 0.5 extra base hits per game and play in at least 50 games is Jay Bruce in 2006 (63 extra base hits in 117 games). Senzel's .552 slugging percentage would lead the league if he had enough plate appearances to qualify, while his .413 on on-base percentage would rank second in the MWL and his .316 batting average would rank fourth. His .316 batting average is the sixth highest in a half in the current decade for the Dragons franchise. * Chris Okey is batting .343 over his last 10 games. * Ty Boyles over his last three starts: 17.2 IP, 1 R, 0 ER. * Dragons RHP Sandy Lugo over his last six relief outings: 13.1 IP, 0 R, 9 H, 3 BB, 18 SO. * Dragons RHP Lucas Benenati over his last 11 relief appearances: 20.2 IP, 1 ER. * Dragons RHP Manuel Aybar over his last six relief outings: 10.2 IP, 1 R.

Team Notes * The Dragons have won nine straight home games, one short of the club record set in 2008. * The Dragons have collected 47 hits over the last four games, going a combined 47 for 137 (.343) overall and 21 for 50 (.420) with runners in scoring position. They have seven doubles, three triples, and one home run over these four games.
