Almost gone for Yan, but a RBI just the same.

Lets win this game...

2 strikeouts for Koch.  Still don't know what the velocity was.  Also David Sanders warming up in the bullpen.

Rooney said Ozzie told him Koch in only throwing 90-91 MPH, but they feel he'll build velocity throughout the spring.
