Tue. 6/17 - Gold vs. Blue on the Island, So Six Games in All

[Joseph Zarr]

Ethan Dorchies Low-A debut. How about you face the 3-4-5 in the FIreflies order?

[Joseph Zarr]

Kuehner gives up a deep gapper triple to the left CF wall (maybe a 2B with advance). Beautiful gather by Lara and a gorgeous relay from Pratt but the base runner slid just under the tag - the relay from Pratt was collected 1B side. Maybe if it is 3 feet toward 3B line it succeeds. Either way, 2-1 Shuckers headed to their half of the second.

Dorchies is trying to work around a two out goose snort into very shallow RF. Bitonti was just charged with a fielding error on a pick-off throw to 1B. man on 2B. Two down. 3-0 Mudcats. Top of 7.

[Joseph Zarr]

Dorchies hits him on the 3-2 count. Little bit of trouble here in the 7th. Mound visit. 

[Joseph Zarr]

Juan Baez works his second walk and I think I grew some wings. No, I'm not an angel. BUT, man, I grew wings. 

[Joseph Zarr]

Dorchies gets out of it! 2-2 ground out/force out SS to 2B. 

[Joseph Zarr]

37 consecutive game OB streak. Adams follows Spain's K with a pull single on an outside heater into LF. Heck of a hit. 

[Joseph Zarr]

3-1 Shuckers. Boeve pokes one into the left CF alleyway and Adams benefits from a misread on the bounce. Love it. 

[Joseph Zarr]

Peña steals his 28th base. After he ripped a classic oppo liner single. I love Him. 

[Joseph Zarr]

Braylon works a 3-2 count for an oppo single. Love his work tonight. Yes, he has a K. BUT, on a filthy inside breaker. He has a triple. A single. And a walk. This is the best Braylon game in weeks. Love it. 

[Joseph Zarr]

Kuehner has a BB, single, single bases loaded one out mini-jam here early with the Shuckers up 3-1. Mound visit. 

[sveumrules]

Mitchell & Quero each singled then Dalbec went deep to get NASH an early 3-0 lead.

Tobias with a single, walk and two K through a pair of scoreless frames.

[Joseph Zarr]

And Kuehner gave up a squibber for a bunt RBI single. He gets the K. He then hits a batter on the lead ankle. Ooof. 3-3 game. Bases still juiced. Two down. 

[sveumrules]

Juan Baez with his THIRD walk of the game, bases were loaded (including Yhoswar’s second double of the game), 8-2 Wisco.

& a two RBI Jadher single makes it 10-2 TRats

[Joseph Zarr]

Peña with his second fielding error at SS tonight. That's his 8th and 9th errors? Both slow rollers. Error one far 'worse' by my eyes. This second error in the 8th was a classic 'I got eaten up by the bounce and my eyes on a slow roller off the base of my webbing'.

Words can not describe how impressive this T-Rats game has been.

NOR Brock Wilken's 18th HR as I type over the LF wall. 106 mph. Shuckers back in front 4-3.

Brewers apparently have traded Wes Clark to the Astros……nothing on the return as of yet

[biedergb]

Dang long day at work, and I miss one of the best minor league nights in the past few weeks.

T-Rats offense going crazy to help DeBerry with a nice start.

And look at those lines of the ACL "D" twins of Dubanewicz and Dorchies, beautiful thing to see them throwing scoreless innings and the Muddies having some offensive output. Maybe I have to STOP watching or following for Payne to break OUT of his slump.

And Brock Wilken - career high in HRs - and still half a season to go. Alright young man.

And I rarely follow the Sound, but hey they are up 4-0 on a Dalbec bomb. Beating Cubs at ANY level is a good things - let's go Nashville.

I love this for Wes. Good on the org. He had suddenly fallen way down the org depth chart. He goes to an org needing 1B depth. This is a win-win regardless of the compensation. Tho, I am obviously curious to see the comp.

I will happily report the Astros' Shay Whitcomb was pulled as this news broke. I have nothing confirmed but man I would be stoked. LOL.

[sveumrules]

Dorchies opens the ninth with a double and walk, prompting a mound visit.

Bounced back with a pop out and fly out before giving up a two RBI triple.

Now a 3-2 game, need one more out.

[biedergb]

OK. C'mon EThan

1 strike away from ending the game, he gives up a triple. Tying run on third.

See - spoke to soon. DO NOT let me watch the Mudcats I am the jinx. 😉

I can confirm. I called the bullpen. This is absolutely your fault. 

[biedergb]

And to calm my nerves, Stanley calls on .... Anfernny Reyes 😲

[biedergb]

Seppings closes out the win in West Michigan, DeBerry should have the win. And the offense driven by Areinamo, Dinges and a Garcia - let's just believe it's the CF Yhoswar

Put some dang respect on Anfernny's name. He's been very good for the Muddies of late. I scold you. I smack you with a wet noodle on your upper arm! Your dominant arm!
