Sun. 7/28 - All Eyes on Misiorowski

[markedman5]

64 pitches and only 32 strikes for Miso…..2 more WPs and another hit batter to go with the 3 walks and 3 strikeouts………EB with some great defense behind him too.

[Ro Mueller]

RHP Garrett Stallings threw 79 pitches on Tuesday and makes his second start of the week for AAA Nashville, which can secure a 4-2 home series win over Charlotte with a victory tonight. CF Joey Wiemer has a 17-game on-base streak.

Wild pitches were Montverde, the Pensacola pitcher.

[sveumrules]

Will Childers worked around a trio of one out singles in the fifth to record the zero.

Bo Bowman worked a one two three sixth (1 K).

Sam Carlson struck out the first two batters in the seventh before going walk (stolen base) single, getting Pensacola on the board at 2 to 1.

Sam Gardner now on and walks the first batter before getting a groundout to end the inning.

[Joseph Zarr]

Getting some 'Rich Man's Aaron Ashby' vibes with 2024 RHP Jacob Misiorowski.

Looks like Salem intentionally threw at Castillo. Pitcher had no command issues in the inning outside of hitting Castillo with a pitch that was thrown behind him? 

Clearly threw at him.

I guess when you can't get a hitter out that you resort to throwing at him. Sour grapes.

[Joseph Zarr]

Have. A. Series. Luis Castillo. My goodness.

And, for those tracking at home: we have not seen CF Yophery Rodriguez since he pulled up slightly lame with that lower right hammy issue this past Wednesday in the first inning. We obviously don't know the type of the injury or what exactly is injured but he certainly missed the rest of the series and it certainly 'looked' like some type of something to that area.

Sam Gardner back out and works a three up three down (1 K) eighth.

Brock Wilken has singled to lead off the ninth trying to get some insurance run(s) for the Shuckers.

[Joseph Zarr]

Time to tune in and watch the Shuckers 9th. They just loaded the bases with nobody out. 

[Joseph Zarr]

EMJ at the dish. Quickly in an 0-2 count. Yoho warming up in the Pen. EMJ grounds it through to the right side. Hit quite well through the hole. Everyone advances. Still nobody down. 3-1 game Shuckers.

[Joseph Zarr]

Meanwhile, ol' friend LHP Justin King is warming up in the Wahoos pen (he has four scoreless innings so far as a Wahoo reliever - well done, young man!).

[Joseph Zarr]

LOL. Warren hits a swinging bunt in a 3-2 count and it stays fair down the 1B line. Another run crosses. Nobody could cover 1B in time. Bases still juiced. 4-1 Shuckers.

[Joseph Zarr]

Kahle rips a two-run deep single in the right CF gap. He plates two. Warren holds at 3rd. Men on the corners now. 6-1 Shuckers! 

[Joseph Zarr]

AND, we'll get a look at our old friend LHP Justin King. Let's GO!

Pitching Change: Woo-Suk Go replaces Chandler Jozwiak

He certainly did.

[Joseph Zarr]

King can pretty much throw anything to Casey Martin who is apparently swinging at anything right now.

[Joseph Zarr]

Fittingly, King gets the swing and miss K on a breaking ball below the zone. Martin took some really questionable hacks in that AB.

[sveumrules]

Dylan O’Rae swings at nothing loading the bases with a five pitch walk.

[Joseph Zarr]

O'Rae walks - now on base 3x today. EBJ up to the dish. Bases juiced. One down. EBJ is hitless on his day so far...

[Joseph Zarr]

EBJ with an AB bespeaking of a guy who hasn't got a hit all day. He swings and misses on a high 94 mph heater. Was well behind that pitch. Not a good AB. Two down.

[wiguy94]

Justin King doing Justin King things to the Shuckers isn't that much fun.

[Joseph Zarr]

Really nice work by LHP Justin King. He gets Wilken flailing at a beautiful change-up tailing off the outer black for a 1-2 swinging K. 

I tell you, watching that inning, I'm thinking and saying the exact same thing today as I am when they released King:

"Why would you let that arm leave the system for free?"

He has stuff and tools that merit a roster spot. Just silly.
