"\"&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prospect Of The Day&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Danville righthander &lt;strong&gt;David Francis&lt;\\/strong&gt; (Braves) turned in one of the better performances you&amp;#8217;ll see at any level on Tuesday when he threw six no-hit innings, walked two and struck out 16. Let&amp;#8217;s put it another way; of the 18 outs Francis made, only three of them were not strikeouts. (Francis struck out four in one inning, but one batter reached base on a third strike wild pitch.) Francis had given up just one run over his last 16 innings since making his professional debut before Tuesday&amp;#8217;s performance.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prospect Nuggets  &lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jon Leiber&lt;\\/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Scott Eyre&lt;\\/strong&gt; (Cubs) made rehab appearances in the Arizona League.
