He allowed just four hits and one walk while striking our four. It was, at that time, his second quality start of the summer. In the series finale, the southpaw worked a career-best seven frames on just 78 pitches. Barclay let up just one run on three hits. It was a solo homer off the bat of Cincinnati Reds prospect Michael Trautwein. He issued just one walk while striking out seven batters. Against Louisville, Barclay worked a 0.69 earned run average in 13.0 frames. He held batters to just a .159 average against.

TAYLOR'S ERA - Taylor Trammell has been excellent in August hitting .350 in six contests. He has hit a home run in four of them while driving in seven runs. He has now had a home run in both games against Lehigh Valley this series. It is his second time this summer with homers in consecutive contests. On the season, Trammell is batting .245 with 16 doubles and a dozen homers in 68 games.
