NOTEBOOK From Eastwood Field



In the order: Scrappers manager Rouglas Odor has used a different starting lineup in all nine games the team has played to date. The only stability in the lineup has been in the No. 2 spot where Andy Lytle has batted in all nine games this season. Lytle has hit safely in seven of the eight games going into Wednesday's game. He has hit safely in the last seven straight and is hitting .500 during the streak. Catcher Kelly Edmundson extended his hitting streak to four games on Tuesday.
Still winless: The Brooklyn Cyclones of the McNamara Division of the New York-Penn League were still winless going into Wednesday's action. The Cyclones had dropped seven straight after a 6-3 loss to division leader Hudson Valley on Tuesday.
Attendance down: The Scrappers were averaging 3,953 fans for their first five home games, the seventh best mark in the NYPL. Mahoning Valley hasn't been close to its opening night crowd of 6,450 in its last four games. Oddly enough the Brooklyn Cyclones, the league's only team without a win, leads the attendance standings with 8,169 fans in three home contests to date.
Stats leaders: Lytle is also the NYPL's hit's leader for the season with 15 after Tuesday's ame, while pitcher Daniel Frega leads the league in base on balls with six in two appearances. There has been one complete game and one shutout thrown in the league thus far and both were by Matt O'Brien of Oneonta.
