Double-A Trenton manager Tony Franklin is resting comfortably at home after being taken to the hospital with chest pains prior to yesterday’s game. He was in critical care for a while, but doctors eventually game him a clean bill of health. He’s going to take a few days off an rejoin the team shortly. Glad he’s doing well, Franklin’s beloved by pretty much everyone.
In much happier news, Carlos Silva was added to the Trenton roster and will start tomorrow as he tries to get back into the big leagues.
