RHP Logan Henderson (3.51 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 12.3 K/9 in 25.2 IP) gets the start for Low-A Carolina, which seeks to claw back to 2-and-3 in their series at Down East. C Jose Sibrian is 10-for-his-last-30, with 2 HRs and 2 doubles. 

[Ro Mueller]

Logan Henderson reached a season-high 75 pitches over 5 solid innings (1 run, 1 hit, 8 Ks). Luis Lara has reached base 3 times in the first 4 innings (2 singles, walk), scoring twice as Carolina has grabbed a 4-1 lead. LHP Nate Peterson is pitching now for the first time in 31 days.

And those Mudcats closed it out 7-3 and are back to 0.500 with a two game winning streak! LHP Nate Peterson returned to a very successful 2 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, and 3 K.

[Ro Mueller]

AA Biloxi has RHP Christian Mejias (6.28 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, 11.2 K/9 in 61.2 IP) starting tonight, as they strive for a 3-2 series lead at home against Mississippi. 1B/C Wes Clarke (.775 OPS) has an 11-game on-base steak. 

[Ro Mueller]

19-year old RF Hendry Mendez returns from injury for his first High-A action since May 10 and RHP Jacob Misiorowski (2.34 ERA, 0.95 WHIP, 14.0 K/9 in 42.1 IP) makes his 14th start of 2023, as Wisconsin seeks to take a 3-2 series lead at Quad Cities. Unfortunately, Eric Brown Jr. and Eduardo Garcia are out of the lineup after recent injuries.

Awesome to see Hendry back in Wisco. Hope he can put together a nice second half for the TRats.

Absolutely. He had a really good bout of Rehab work in the ACL. He just needs to stay healthy. It's been a series of snakebites since that awful RF wall incident last season. He and EBJ need to see Jobu, me thinks. 

[Ro Mueller]

The AAA Sounds have won 5 consecutive games and have RHP Pedro Fernandez back from injury for his first game in 16 days, facing Memphis on the road. SS Cam Devanney has a 10-game on-base streak.

[Ro Mueller]

20-year old C Jeferson Quero takes sole possession of the Biloxi home run leaderboard with his 12th of the year (Black has 11, Chourio 10). The Shuckers are tied 2-2 in the 5th inning. 

 

[igor67]

Well some early highlights, it's 2-2 in the 5th inning for Biloxi with Quero already filling up his box score with a single and a HR. Carolina comes out on top 7-3 with Lara on base 4 times.

[igor67]

Also looking at the box score given how much production he seems to crank out seeing Quero with only an .866 OPS currently is a bit surprising.

[Joseph Zarr]

RHP Ryan Middendorf came on in relief of Mejias in the top of the 6th inning. He walks his first batter to load the bases. Then, on a 1-2 count, he lets a slider run too far inside and it plunks the lefty's knee. Run scores. Next batter, chopper to 3rd base. Black correctly comes home for the second out and Quero drops the ball rushing the transfer. Bases still juiced. Two down. 3-2 Braves. Those errors on makable plays seem to always haunt the clubs. Next batter and Middendorf hangs one middle in and the batter lines it to CF past a diving Murray and it's now 5-2. 

Yeah, it's absolutely that kind of year for Middendorf. Tough sledding.

[sveumrules]

Hey, Home Run Hendry!!

Joe Gray Jr. two RBI single and Matthew Wood two RBI double have the TRats up 5-2 top of five.

[sveumrules]

Brosseau bomb just about it in the Nashville box as they trail 5-3 bottom of six.

[wiguy94]

Strzelecki's awful command issues have continued in AAA. He blows the Nashville 1-run lead walking in the tying run on 4 pitches.

[Joseph Zarr]

Kudos to RHP Sam Gardner. That's two consecutive Saves. Two consecutive scoreless outings. The nerves have settled and he's finding a groove. Let's hope it lasts! Big win for the T-Rats. 5-4 final.

I'll be interested in seeing how aggressive they are with Lara. Love those guys who don't strike out AND draw walks. Despite being 18, I'd think at least a taste of A+ before the season ends, no?

[CheeseheadInQC]

Misiorowski didn't have A+ command tonight, but wow does the ball explode out of his hand. I had to snap a photo at one point because he "broke" the stadium pitch speed display (it is not set up to handle triple digits, so along with a bevy of 99s and 98s he had a few 00s). He got a few gasps from people around me about how hard he was throwing.

Also, Mendez had a couple of other reasonably hard hit liners along with the home run. He was making the best contact of any of the Rattlers tonight. This applies to basically all hitters, but especially given Mendez's groundball profile, the more line drives the better.
