Couldn’t move the runner in the second inning, can’t get one home with less than two outs in the fifth. This adds up. Wanna know why these #Reds don’t score consistently? Little things. Didn’t do them under Bell, not doing them under Tito. Probably wouldn’t do them under anyone.

#nahss Good friends and seniors Nathan Burkey of Northridge and Lakewood's Troy Martindale finish careers on podium together in the state Division II 300 hurdles. Burkey was 6th in :38.96, just off his school record, and Martindale was 8th and re-set his school mark to :39.36.

#trhss Huge shout out to Philo’s Aidan Mahon for winning the D-II high jump. Kid had dealt with a bad hammy all year on top of the disappointment of last year’s struggles at state. Sweet retribution couldn’t have happened to a better kid.

Someone please make it make sense that Brady Kaufman isn't a first-team All-Ohio pick. But then I am reminded that these are the same people that didn't vote Jacob Miller to the first team and wound up being a second-round MLB draft pick. Tri-Valley HS

For context, mandatory minicamp ends - and summer break begins - after practice is over at 10 am. There are no significant post-practice meetings or anything he would be missing. Announcing his departure is just a further statement on his frustration, that’s all.
