Also, in the minor leagues...


Brewers pitching prospect Manny Parra threw a perfect game last night in Nashville. It was only his second AAA start. Ever.

The left-hander struck out 11 and threw 107 pitches, 77 for strikes. The 24-year-old allowed two runs on seven hits and four walks while fanning six in six frames in his Triple-A debut against Iowa last Wednesday.

I wasn't able to find confirmation, but my guess would be that this guy was pulled up from Double A when Yovani Gallardo was called up to the majors. Nothing like making a splash!

Congratulations, Manny!
