The homer and triple over the weekend were a welcome touch, but let's be honest: Jimmy Comerota earns his keep with the leather. The play he made in the top of the fifth to save Hague an error was emblematic of his defensive might, a diving stop of an errant throw that pulled him off the bag and dropped him to his knees. What did Comerota do in that situation? Merely apply the tag to Bearkats 3B Kevin Miller as he attempted to run behind the prone Comerota. Putout.

Fazio: 5 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB 3K. Owls lead 5-0 in the fifth.
