Futures Game:

Tyler Beede pitched an inning.  Threw mostly sinkers and cutters.  I saw a couple of 91 MPH.  He reportedly topped out at 92.  Good pitch movement.  A couple of curveballs had nice bite.  Didn't get a good look at a changeup.  Kept hitters off balance.  Gave up 1 hit on a hard hit ball.  Got 1 groundout, 1 pop out, 1 long fly out.

Keury Mella faced 3 batters, gave up 2 line drive hits.  Hit 94 MPH on the gun.  Didn't seem to have much of an idea where the ball was going.  Appeared to be a bit nervous in front of the big crowd.
