Farmers Only Weekend Harvest: Jose Siri goes streaking

Friday, July 21

Louisville Bats 2, Buffalo Bison 13

Hoo Boy. Amir Garrett did not have a good outing. He gave up 7 runs on 7 hits while walking 1 and striking out 0 in only an inning of work. He has put up a 9.82 ERA in the month of July which is, as some might say, bad. Austin Brice “Waterhouse Cooper” and Lisalverto Bonilla each threw 2 shutout innings of relief, which was good. At the plate, Zach “Soft J” Vincej was 2 for 4 and scored a run, Uncle Jesse Winker was 1 for 2 with a double, a walk, and a run scored, and Alex “MCM” Blandino was 1 for 4 with a RBI double.

Pensacola Blue Wahoos 3, Montgomery Biscuits 14

Deck “Yella Wood” McGuire got the start and was wild, giving up only 2 runs on 4 hits, but walking 5 while striking out 7. The damage came when he was relieved by Alex “Danger” Powers, who gave up 7 runs and only recorded 1 out. Blake Trahan was 2 for 5 with a double and scored twice, Gavin “As I walk through” LaValley was 2 for 4 with a double, and Josh “Metric System” VanMeter was 2 for 3 with a double, a walk, and 1 RBI. Shed Long also hit a solo dinger, which is a good thing.

Daytona Tortugas 0, Jupiter Hammerheads 6

Wendolyn “Wendy Bats” Bautista gave up 4 runs on 5 hits with 4 walks and 3 strikeouts over 4.2 innings. Not that it really mattered, because the offense only collected 3 hits, 1 each by Luis Gonzalez, James “No Nickname” Vazquez, and Chris “Annie are you” Okey.

Dayton Dragons 1, Peoria Chiefs 8

Alex Webb started and gave up 3 runs in 3 innings on 5 hits with 3 walks and 3 strikeouts. Then Aaron “A-A-Ron” Quillen blew everything up and gave up 5 runs in 4 innings of work. Jose “Ask” Siri was 1 for 4 with a double and scored a run and Hector Vargas was 2 for 3 on the night.

Billings got rained out on Friday.

Saturday, July 22

Louisville Bats 0, Buffalo Bison 8

Rookie “of the year” Davis: Also not great. He was bit by the long ball in this one, as 3 of 6 hits that he gave up left the yard. He allowed 5 earned runs over 4.2 innings while walking none and striking out 3. Kevin “Love” Shackelford struck out 4 in 1.2 innings of work. Alex Blandino and Eric “Deuce Bigelow Male” Jagielo were each 1 for 4 with a double. That’s pretty much all there is to write about offensively.

Pensacola Blue Wahoos 7, Montgomery Biscuits 4

The Blue Wahoos scored 3 in the top of the 9th to win 7-4 on Saturday. Jose Lopez was solid, going 6 innings and giving up 2 runs on 4 hits with 1 walk and 5 strikeouts. Nick “Rocky Top” Senzel mashed, going 3 for 5 with 2 doubles. Gavin LaValley was 2 for 5 with a double and 2 RBI, Shed Long was also 2 for 5 with a double and 2 RBI, and Gabriel “Young Vlad” Guerrero was 2 for 5 and scored twice. Zach Weiss struck out 2 in 2 scoreless innings.

Daytona Tortugas 4, Jupiter Hammerheads 3

Daytona scored 2 in the 9th to walk it off against Jupiter on Saturday. Jonathon “:(“ Crawford started and gave up 3 runs on 3 hits over 3 innings with 6 walks and 2 strikeouts. Austin “1984” Orewiler came on in relief and was solid, throwing 4 shutout innings while walking none and striking out 5. Luis Gonzalez was 2 for 3 with 2 RBI, Brantley “Ring My” Bell was 1 for 4 with a 2-run dinger, and Alfredo “Pasta-Rod” Rodriguez was 1 for 4 with a double and scored a run.

Dayton Dragons 2, Peoria Chiefs 8

Wennington “More like givesupabunchofrunsington” Romero started and was pretty bad. He gave up 8 earned runs on 10 hits over 6.2 innings, walking none and striking out 4. The offense only scattered 5 hits and none went for extra bases. Bruce Yari was 1 for 4 with 1 RBI, so that was good, I guess.

Billings Mustangs 1, Grand Junction Rockies 5

Mac Sceroler started and didn’t give up a run over 3 innings, but then Tyler Buffett happened and he gave up 5 runs over 2 innings. Stuart “Life’s Not” Fairchild was 2 for 2 with a solo dinger and Alejo Lopez and Leandro Santana were each 1 for 3.

Billings Mustangs 2, Grand Junction Rockies 6

Jhon De Jesus started for the Mustangs and gave up 4 runs on 6 hits with no walks and 3 strikeouts over 3.1 innings of work. The offense still didn’t provide much help, collecting only 6 hits and 2 runs. Andy Sugilio was 1 for 3 with a triple, Alejo Lopez was 1 for 3 with a run scored, and Stuart Fairchild was 1 for 2 with 1 RBI.

Louisville Bats 2, Buffalo Bison 5

It was not a good weekend for Reds’ pitching prospects in Louisville who are trying to make it back to the majors. Cody Reed started and struggled again, giving up 4 runs on 6 hits over 6 innings with 2 walks, 2 hit batters, and 5 strikeouts. Jesse Winker was 2 for 5 with a double and 1 RBI. Brandon “Dixoff” Dixon was 2 for 3 with a walk and Phil “Phlervin” Ervin was 1 for 4 with a double and a walk.

Domingo “Fish Tacos” Tapia started for the Wahoos and gave up 3 runs on 7 hits with 3 walks and 3 strikeouts in 4.2 innings of work.
