ON THAT FRES-NOTE: Despite Monday's defeat, the Grizzlies are 90-59 all-time against "Albuquerque"…during Fresno's first three Triple-A seasons (1998-2000), the Grizzlies went 12-8 against the Albuquerque Dukes before a two-season professional baseball hiatus in the city (2001-2002). The relocated Calgary Cannons franchise began play at brand new Isotopes Park in 2003, and has just a 51-78 record against Fresno since.
