Rosario with a double to start the Sounds 4th frame. Deep to right CF warning track. Dalbec will try to knock him across.

Dinges in the action with a caught stealing!

Got him going for 3rd base btw after he had just stole 2B (26 SB on that young man's season). 94 mph heater up and in and Dinges ripped one dead accurate to 3B. He is very good to the corner bases. 2B is still very much a work in progress.

[Joseph Zarr]

Mudcats defense leaves Hernandez high and dry in the fifth frame yet again. Anderson charged and dove for a shallow pop fly with Made and Bitonti converging but letting up. He misses the catch as it bounces off his webbing. I think it's 2-0 Hillcats now? BUT, there scoreboard is just as bad as their audio. I really have no idea. This telecast is a quagmire. Come to think of it, I'm just going to go ahead and shut this off - Muddies aren't hitting anything or capitalizing (wink wink). Time to start the Shuckers from scratch.

Pair of singles (Yhoswar & Guilarte), pair of groundouts (Eduardo & Baez) got Wisco another run.

Then back to back Burke & Dinges doubles scored two more, 6-0 TRats.

Dinges went for a seventh on a Jadher single, but was thrown out at home.

Burke scorched a line shot down the RF line and into the corner. Dinges rocked an absolute bomb off the high LF wall. Missed a HR by about 3'. Just an absolute rocket.

Braylon Payne solo shot gets Carolina on the board, trailing 2-1 through five.

[Joseph Zarr]

Scary Gary has absolutely torched Zimmerman for two XBH's including a 3-run HR just now. My goodness. Sounds trail 7-0. As I said pre-game: Zimmerman has yet to stack outings. He just isn't doing it.

See. I just had to leave the 'broadcast' (I don't know what you call that). If the defense is sharp, they Muddies lead 1-0.

[Joseph Zarr]

Dinges is such an incredible talent. With his bat. His arm. And his improving framing and defense, he is pretty easily a Top 10 prospect for me (keep in mind haven't voted on prospects all season long). His bat does not grow on trees. Unreal talent.

Just remember that he didn't catch at all last year at fsu  so credit goes to our minor league coaches for his development so far

108 off the bat on that Burke double 

[sveumrules]

Wilken solo shot top of three made it 5-0 Biloxi but Wichrowski has run into trouble in the bottom half and its currently down to a 5-3 margin.

I absolutely LOVE him, my friend. LOVE him. His game is so tantalizingly good. 

[biedergb]

And Wichrowski unraveling here in the 3rd after a Brock Wilken error. 5-3 Biloxi still lead. 

[Joseph Zarr]

Birchard loses his stuff randomly inning-to-inning. BUT, man, his stuff is really good. If he could just fine-tune that release point. He tends to lose the heater arm side up and in. And, then, he tends to lose off-speed location when he's working through it. Regardless, he gets through a high pitch two walk second inning with no damage. Swinging K to end it on a filthy high 95 mph heat. Made a really athletic play on a weakly hit dribbler down the 1B line. I love his stuff. He is far from a polished prospect but we should all be really excited about what he might become. 

[biedergb]

And Wichrowski has given up the lead... 5 runs allowed in the inning. Clearly he does not have it.

He is such a frustrating prospect, as he can seriously dazzle at times, but just not able to do it consistently.

Birchard and Wich are both interesting prospects who could really be prospects but that consistency has really held them both back.

Ugh, triple and now its 5-5.

Inning would’ve been over at 5-2 without the Wilken error.

Booooo to errors. They have really snake bitten the teams tonight. Muddies were done in by two drops. Now Wilken's error.

Take it away gents, animal chores for this Farm 'Boy'.

He has gotten the job done, but in a very Birch kind of way - 5K, 3BB, and only 2hits, and its 63 pitches to get through 3 IP. 😳

[sveumrules]

Juan Baez little league HR? Says triple and E8 on GameDay.

7-0 Wisco top four.

[wibadgers23]

I miss the old days when Carolina would put up a bunch of runs in the blink of an eye.  Just cannot get much going offensively lately.

Chattanooga's announcer is a long-time oldster. His call on the dinger was hilariously understated. It was a bomb over the LF wall. You would have thought you were hearing a casual conversation during batting practice.

Well, I love knowing this as Birchard has two men on and nobody out again to start his third inning. Two innings in a row.

That line up is so diluted now, and with the major slumps of Payne and Bitonti, it is asking too much to just have Made and Pena be the only offense. Will look better if/when Adamczewski returns and if some of the other younger players (Lameda, Anderson among others) can get going offensively.

But that early season Payne-Pena-Made-Adamczewski-Dinges-Bitonti-DiTuri-Alastre line up was pretty fierce.

[sveumrules]

Nashville getting back into it with a three run fifth and two run sixth, Quero notching an RBI single in each frame.

Now a 7-5 deficit.
