Checking In on Shane Victorino

Shane Victorino could soon become another option for the Cubs outfield

Shane Victorino played his fifth game Thursday for the Iowa Cubs, well most of it anyway. Victorino went 1-for-3 at the plate and stole his first base of the season. Victorino, along with manager Marty Pevey, was ejected from the game in the sixth inning of the 7-2 loss to the Sounds for arguing a controversial play in left field that resulted in an inside-the-park Grand Slam.

In five games for the Iowa Cubs, Victorino is 6-for-20 with a pair of doubles and a triple.
