Breaking News |  | Sunday, May 27th, 2007: Buffalo-East Prairie Fight Results in Suspensions Joe Unknown of the Buffalo Spirits and Joe Unknown of the East Prairie Dogfish received notification from the league commissioner's office that they had been suspended for 3 games for their part in the on-field ruckus in a recent game at Buffalo Fields.
|  | Monday, April 30th, 2007: Red-Hot Zaun Scorches Dreadnoughts Buffalo catcher Gregg Zaun could do no wrong in today's 8-5 win over the Dreadnoughts as he collected 5 hits.
"In every one of his at-bats things were in his favor... he got hitter's counts," the skipper of the Dreadnoughts said to the press corps after the game.
Zaun agreed. "The key is getting ahead. Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit. You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
G. Zaun singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, singled in the 7th, walked in the 9th and hit an RBI double in the 11th.
Zaun is currently hitting at a .403 pace with 1 home run, 11 RBIs and has scored 13 times. |  | Tuesday, April 17th, 2007: Hammel Takes Charge, Blanks Buffalo Jason Hammel of the Glendale Madhouse shut out the Buffalo Spirits 5-0, stopped them on 4 hits and had 11 strikeouts and no walks in a strong outing.
After the game his manager said, "He just came out and was on the attack from the first pitch he threw. When Jason stays ahead in the count, he does well. That's the key."
