Link Report Bonus -- the Brevard County area code is 3-2-1, which was assigned as an homage to the space industry. Countdown, get it? Thanks to Stephen Smith for the tidbit.

I was hoping this was the photo of the exact moment when Scooter Gennett left Thursday night's Wisconsin game early -- but this is actually from the first inning double play on which he was erased. Khris Davis grounded into both DP's, this one and the one in the third inning.

We'll have to wait and see Friday's starting lineup.

Tonight's pitchers

 

Starting lineup

 

Scooter Gennett's back in the lineup, so I guess he's not injured.

[DHonks]

Wow...tasty menu tonight. Not sure of Waters, but 4 of the 5 scheduled pitchers have me happy

Nashville Media Notes

[sfl2hnq17]

good beginnings by odorizzi and scarpetta.

[TheCrew07]

Gennett back in the lineup tonight, apparently the injury was nothing.

[Tedaldtada]

Odorizzi is toying with hitters through two. Peter Fatse with a couple of rbi's. Gindl with a hit and Cain with a walk, but the stars couldn't put any across in the first. Rogers, though a bit wild, has looked strong through two. Lucroy is sitting in favor of McCraw tonight. Wheeler is hitting in the four hole.

[sfl2hnq17]

nothing but a hbp and a walk for odorizzi. wow.

 

it doesnt seem as if rogers is missing by that much.

[Tedaldtada]

WI offense errupts (the pitching is pretty special too...). Fatse again, Richardson with a hit and a steal, and a double for each of Dennis and Garfield.

 

Farris with a hit. That average is creeping. Waters is getting a little roughed up.

[TheCrew07]

nothing but a hbp and a walk for odorizzi. wow.

don't forget to mention he has 8K through 5, though he might be done now.

 

Unfortunately Rogers continues to walk hitters,4BB, 4K so far with 3R and 1 ER, a Lawrie error extending the inning on him. Hopefully he adjusts as the season progresses and starts to locate better.

 

edit. Back to Odorizzi, 77 pitches, 50 for strikes... that's what I'm talking about young man!

[YoungGeezy]

It always sucks when they pull a pitcher during a no-hitter. Even in Low A ball it is a special moment of them. I understand though with the extremely strick minor league pitch counts theses days, but its still a bumber

[trwi7]

The Rattlers pitchers are pitching very well through 6 if you catch my drift.

[Tedaldtada]

Scarpetta had a really, really good night as well. 6 K's in 6. 1 BB and 1 HBP. Komatsu is having a great night atthe plate and on the base paths. He would go a long way to solidifying that BC lineup.

 

Cain gunned down guy at second and Gennett got gunned at home tonight as well. Very interesting night.

[battlekow]

Anyone listening know why Katin was pulled for a pinch hitter in the 4th?

[sfl2hnq17]

does anyone have an idea of krestaludes reporteire?

[battlekow]

Final: Brevard County 4, Dunedin 1

 

Brevard County box score

Cody Scarpetta's second start went a whole lot better than his first. He tossed six scoreless innings, allowing five hits, striking out six, and walking just one (plus a hit batter). That last bit is especially encouraging in light of the six free passes he handed out in his debut. Erik Komatsu was the offensive star for the Manatees, posting a perfect 4-4 line while komalishing a double and stealing three bases. Sergio Miranda and Mike Roberts each had two hits, and Erik Miller went 1-3 with a sac fly and threw a runner out at home.

Brevard County play-by-play

Scarpetta's first four strikeouts were called, including three in the first inning.

Two more outs!

[trwi7]

One more out to go!

[trwi7]

Noooooooo. A grounder just inside third base breaks up the no hitter with two outs in the 9th.
