Former Illini Robinson 1-2 in PCL-IL All-Star Game

The Pacific Coast League lost to the International League 6-5 in their annual All-Star Game last night in front of a crowd of 16,000.  Former Illini Chris Robinson did his part for the PCL, though.  As starting catcher, he went 1-2 and scored a run.

Here is the box score. 

My fellow blogger Teddy Ballgame on The Baseball Zealot did a nice writeup on the PCL-IL All-Star game.

While I’m on All-Star news, congrats to Matt Dittman and Lee Zerrusen.  Ditt was named to the Great Lakes League All-Star team .  He’ll be representing his team, the Lake Erie Monarchs.  In 18 games, he’s hit .369

Zerrusen also made his league’s All-Star team.  For the Fayetteville Swampdogs in the Coastal Plain League, Big Z has dominated in the first half in the season.  He has a 1.85 ERA with 10 saves.  Zerrusen has 29 strikeouts in 24 1/3 innings. 

Good Luck Illini!
