ANSWERING THE BELL: Bucco rookie Josh Bell has appeared in 153 of the first 155 games...among National League players, only Philadelphia s Freddy Galvis (155) and Cincinnati s Joey Votto (155) have played in more games this season...the club record for most games played by a rookie is 162, set by Johnny Ray in RISP MANAGEMENT: Adam Frazier has produced 16 hits and 17 RBI in his last 31 at bats with runners in scoring position and is hitting.341 (30-for-88) overall this season with RISP...His.459 (17-for-37) average with RISP since the All-Star break is the highest such average among all Major League players.
