After a long road trip, the Flying Tigers were back at home to take on the visiting Vero Beach Devil Rays. I had no idea Ben Zobrist would be there until I saw his name on the lineup board. He was super cool as usual. Vero Beach in general is the nicest visiting team I've seen all season. Too bad I didn't have much for them and they only come to Lakeland four games all year.

Tigers won 8-4 behind the pitching of Jonah Nickerson. Zach Simons made his Flying Tigers debut wearing Justice's old number 24. Pedro Cotto was back in the lineup tonight as well. Never saw most of the bullpen guys as usual. Chuck Tiffany did make a point to walk all the way over and sign when asked and was very cool about it.
