    ABOUT LAST NIGHT...: A night after celebrating manager Dennis Holmbergs 1,300th career victory, the Blue eld Blue Jays could not muster much offense againstChristian Binford and the Burlington Royals, falling 7-2 on Saturday at Bowen Field. Bubba Starling knocked a two-run homer and Alex Hudak drove in three runs. Santiago Nhomered in defeat. Binford and Blue Jays starter Kevin Comer swapped zeroes for the rst third of the game before Fred Fords RBI double and Hudaks RBI single handed theRoyals a 2-0 lead in the fourth inning. Starling rocketed a two-run home run in the fth to double the Burlington advantage. Comer (L, 3-3) allowed four runs on seven hits in innings, striking out ve without issuing a walk. That would be plenty of support for Binford (W, 2-1), who did not allow a hit until Nessys leadoff blast in the bottom of the fThe right-hander went seven innings and only allowed two other hits, a Jacob Anderson triple in the fth and Dickie Joe Thons seventh-inning in eld single. Binford struck oueight and did not walk anyone. Grif n Murphy pitched a scoreless sixth and seventh for the Jays in another outstanding appearance. The southpaw struck out three and has notallowed an earned run in his last 18.2 innings over eight games. Burlington tacked on three runs in the eighth against Brandon Dorsett, who entered the game with a 0.79 ERA. number jumped by more than a run, but still sits at a stellar 1.82. Down 7-1, Blue eld scratched a run across in the eighth against closer Johnny Walter when Christian Lopes sehome Emilio Guerrero with an RBI groundout. Guerrero led off the frame with his rst hit for the Baby Jays since his call-up from the Gulf Coast League. Lopes went 0-for-4 aBlue eld season-high nine-game hitting streak was snapped.

    VS. THE ROYALS: Blue eld won the rst two head-to-head games in Burlington this season, but the Royals have won the last three games, all in the last at bat. On July 7and 8, Burlington won back-to-back games in which the Jays were one strike away from the win. The Royals struggled last year to a 24-44 nish in 2011 and the Jays feasted onBurlington throughout that summer, going 7-2 in the season series.

    - TONIGHTS PITCHING PROBABLES -GABRYSZWSKI: The 19-year-old righty Jeremy Gabryszwski is coming off a game in Princeton on Tuesday in which he gave up three runs in ve innings. His 2.77 and 1.05 WHIP both rank sixth in the league despite having a K/9 of 4.15 that is the second-lowest in the circuit, thanks in part to his 0.69 BB/9 (2nd in the league). Gabby hnot issued a free pass in 24 and two-thirds innings. The Crosby, Texas native was taken in the second round of last years draft, splitting time between the Gulf Coast League anBlue eld. After four and one-third scoreless innings in three GCL games, Gabryszwski moved up to the Appy League on August 29, turning in a shutout inning of relief at DanHe relieved twice in the postseason for the Jays, allowing two runs in four and two-thirds innings. A graduate of Crosby High School, he had committed to play college ball at Lbefore signing with Toronto.CARAMO: Right-hander Yender Caramo goes for Burlington tonight and like Gabryszwski, hes had success because of a very low walk rate. Caramo has the fourth-bestwalks per nine IP (0.78) and WHIP (1.00) in the Appy League. On Tuesday in Danville, he held the Braves to two runs on ve hits in ve innings. On July 8 at home against thJays, he gave up four runs and six hits in four and two-thirds innings. He was on the hook for the loss before the Royals came back and pulled out a walk-off win. The 20-year-onative of Venezuela signed with the Royals in 2010 and was named the Dominican Summer League Royals Pitcher of the Year in 2011 after leading the league with ten wins an1.20 ERA in 67.2 innings.NINE? NEIN!: Second baseman Christian Lopes went 0-for-4 last night, ending his hitting streak at nine games. The stretch set a new Blue eld season high, passing NicoTaylors eight-gamer from June 29 to July 7. The 2011 seventh-round pick from Huntington Beach, CA is batted .400 (14-35) during the run, with six doubles, two triples, severuns batted in and ten runs scored. He ranks third in the league in doubles with 15 and his 22 extra base hits are the fth-most in the circuit. The Jays longest hitting streak lastyear belonged to out elder Chris Hawkins, who hit safely in 14 straight games from July 2 to July 16.MILESTONE VICTORY:Friday nights victory was the 1,300th career win for Blue Jays manager Dennis Holmberg. Over 25 seasons as a minor league skipper, he has acareer record of 1,300-1,209 (.519). He managed his 2,500th professional game last Thursday. After eight seasons as a 3B/OF in the Milwaukee system he began his manageriacareer at age 25 in 1977 with the Newark Co-Pilots, the Brewers farm team in the New York-Penn League. He joined the Blue Jays in 1978 as a minor league instructor and habeen with the organization ever since. He has spent 24 seasons as a manager and eight as a coach in the Toronto system. He also spent the 1994 and 1995 seasons as the bullpencoach for the big league club. Holmberg has piloted ten playoff teams, including last years Appy League runner-up in Blue eld. It was Blue elds rst postseason trip since 20From 2002-07 his Auburn Doubledays made six straight postseasons, including a New York-Penn League championship run in 07.
