MiLB.TV options: All games available, only Carolina is on the road. Carolina's host, Down East, does not provide MiLB.TV video.

 

The MiLB.TV direct links for the others are found within the scoreboard link atop this post.

Greg Young is not traveling for Carolina road games this season.

 

When an opponent does not provide video, like Down East this week, there is no on-air Mudcats audio broadcast.

 

Down East does provide home audio, so if you are a friend or family member of a Mudcats player, for instance, that's how you can follow the game beyond just a Gameday/Box Score perspective.

Noah Campbell is back from an injury and Michael Wilson gets his first official action of 2021 in Game One of the Mudcats’ doubleheader:

Rough AAA debut for Ethan Small, as he departs with 2 outs in the top of the 3rd, 2 runs in, and the bases still loaded. He walked 5 and only struck out 1 while also giving up 3 hits. His command was clearly shaky, but he also wasn't missing by much from what I saw. Very tight strike zone.

Got to be dreadful for Biloxi to have to continue tonight's game that got suspended after two innings...after giving up 10 runs in the first inning.

[Ro Mueller]

Milner and Barker - Wow - 2.2 innings, 8 Ks, 1 hit, no walks, no runs

W. Wilson and Hummel - Wow - 5 for 8, 11 TBs, 3 RBIs, no Ks

Nice walk-off win for Nashville

[Jim Goulart]

Box: Nashville 8, Charlotte (White Sox) 7

Milner and Barker - Wow - 2.2 innings, 8 Ks, 1 hit, no walks, no runs

 

Don't forget LHP Blaine Hardy, who stranded three of Ethan Small's baserunners as part of 2.1 scoreless innings with no walks and three K's.

Box / Gameday: Montgomery (Rays) 10, Biloxi 1, suspended after two innings

It has not been a stellar Brewers debut for RHP Jesus Castillo, who will turn 26 in August.

 

The Diamondbacks signed him out of Venezuela the day after his 16th birthday way back in 2011.

 

He's been part of two subsequent trades:

 

February 18, 2013 - Chicago Cubs traded CF Tony Campana to Arizona Diamondbacks for RHP Jesus Castillo and RHP Erick Leal.

 

August 1, 2016 - Los Angeles Angels traded RHP Joe Smith to Chicago Cubs for RHP Jesus Castillo.

 

Castillo spent all of 2018 on the Angels' 40-man roster but was not recalled to the big league club. He was DFA'd and cleared waivers (outrighted) in spring training 2019.

 

Milwaukee signed him as a minor league free agent in November 2019, and of course, 2020 was wiped out.

"Hey honey, let's grab the kids and head to MGM Park this evening. What's this, we just sat down. 10-1, top of the 3rd?

 

Guess there's a seven-inning Game Two. Enjoy some cotton candy, young ones."

Box / Gameday: Peoria (Cardinals) 0, Wisconsin 0, suspended in the bottom of the 2nd inning

RHP Justin Jarvis two perfect innings, but it was a shorter-than-planned stint.
