QUOTABLE
"I probably would have broken four helmets, five helmets, you know, probably five or six years ago. But I ain't got no broken bats, no broken helmets."
Elijah Dukes, on the frustrations of his .063 batting average
PERSONNEL DEPT.
Class AA Harrisburg outfielder Justin Maxwell, the organization's minor leaguer of the year last season, still needs another "100 games or so of experience" before he's major league-ready, his manager, John Stearns, said. Maxwell, who is hitting .246, has learned patience at the plate this season. He has seven home runs and a .386 on-base percentage and his 31 walks rank second in the Eastern League.
