Louis Coleman, the pride of Schlater and Pillow Academy, notched his first major league win on Monday night. The rookie right-hander tossed two scoreless innings as Kansas City topped Boston 3-1 in a 14-inning affair at Fenway Park. Coleman, up with the Royals for two months now, is 1-2 with a 1.88 ERA and a save in 32 appearances. He has fanned 43 in 38 1/3 innings. That’s good work for a mediocre team.
P.S. Seth Smith has got to be looking over his shoulder. It’s been a tough year for Ole Miss products in the majors. With Alex Presley going on the disabled list on Monday, there are now four ex-Rebels sidelined with injuries. Zack Cozart, Chris Coghlan and Matt Maloney are the others. Coghlan, the 2009 rookie of the year in the National League, is rehabbing in the minors for Florida and could be close to returning.
