Louisville 1, Toledo 7
Amir "Fuck Basketball" Garrett had a rough go of it last night. He only pitched 0.2 innings. He gave up 3 earned runs, walked 4, and only gave up a hit. He didn't strikeout a batter, and to me it sounds like he wasn't feeling it and they just pulled him early. Drew Hayes took over and only gave up a run (wasn't earned) over 3.1 innings. He also struck out two, but the damage was done. JJ Hoover pitched 1.1 scoreless innings with a strikeout, and Matt "The Thrill" Magill pitched a solid inning with one strikeout. Kevin "Rusty" Shackleford also pitched a clean frame. Juan Perez was 2 for 3.
Mystery Pitcher is on the mound at 7:05 PM EST.
Pensacola 2, Mississippi 10
This game was super close until the Braves ruined everyone's night by scoring 8 runs in the 14th inning. Barrett "A little place called" Astin had a great start. He threw down 2 earned runs over 5.2 innings while allowing 4 hits, 1 walk, and 6 strikeouts. Able De Los Santos, Kyle McMyne, and Alejandro Chacin all had great outings. Uncle Phil Ervin was 3 for 6 with a walk, Jeff "Peanut Butter" Gelalich went 3 for 7, and Brandon "Suck" Dixon went 2 for 6 with a walk.
Pensacola plans on kicking ass tonight with Tyler Mahle on the mound at 7:10 PM CT.
Daytona 3, Brevard County 4
I didn't realize Jose Lopez got a promotion, but apparently he did. He was also super solid in what I'm thinking was his debut. He pitched 6 innings while giving up 2 runs (only 1 earned) with 3 hits, 1 walk, and 5 strikeouts. Michael "SulliMonster" Sullivan pitched a personal scoreless inning with a strikeout. Angelo "Bleeding" Gumbs "Murphy" was 3 for 3 with a double and 2 walks. I know he seems like an organizational filler type, but I don't know what else he can do to get bumped up to AA. He's also a former 2nd round pick and is only 23. Shed " I love my bed" Long was 2 for 4 with a RBI and a walk. Brian "Beef Cakes" O'Grady also hit a solo dinger and walked.
Mystery Pitcher is slinging baseballs tonight at 7:00 PM EST.
Dayton 2, West Michigan 9
Damn, Dayton is bad. Tanner "Sad" Rainey got roughed up and I don't even wanna type about it. He gave up lots of runs. Manny "That" Aybar did pitch 2 scoreless while striking out 2. Shane "Still Can't Spell It" Mardirosian was 2 for 4. Daniel "Too" Sweet also hit a solo dinger.
Alex Webb is pitching tonight at 7:00 PM EST.
Billings 4, Ogden 2
Scott "Tangled" Moss was quite solid. He pitched 5 innings and only gave up 1 earned run. He allowed 3 hits, 2 walks, and struck out 2. Patrick "Let's Get" Riehl and Jesse "Clutch" Stallings both pitched an inning while not giving up a run and recording a strikeout. Satchel "Paige" McElroy, Jose "Suck It' Siri, and Alejo "Aloha" Lopez were all 2 for 4.
Ian Kahaloa will pitch tonight at 7:05 PM MT. He's really good.
Baby Reds 3, Baby Brewers 2
Wennington "Winnington" Romero was pretty good with a 4.0 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 5K kinda line. I'll take it. Dauri "Finding Dori" Moreta pitched 2 scoreless with 5 K, Connor Bennett pitched 2 scoreless with 4 K, and Carlos "Macho Man" Machorro picked up the save with a scoreless 9th while striking out 2. Michael "Don't Touch My Head" Beltre was 1 for 2 with 2 walks.
The Baby Reds play tonight, but no one will notice and no one cares.
