Wed. 8/20 - Upper Levels Home, Lower Away

C Matt Wood guns down another runner trying to swipe 2B. What a development.

Pratt on a bit of a heater right now.  Really nice to see.  Made, Fischer, and Adamczewski with two hits apiece for the T-Rats.  If Made keeps this pace up, I think he starts next year in Biloxi.

Man, things went from bad to worse for young RHP Griffin Tobias. With one down after seeing a hard hit gapper fall for a triple in right CF. In a 2-0 count at 4:02:31 on the replay time clock it certainly appears as though Tobias blew out his throwing elbow. He knew it. It was immediate. Man, hurt me!

[Joseph Zarr]

This is the roughest Bo Bowman relief outing I've seen in some time. And, yet, he works around the lead off bomb to RF by inducing the inning ending DP with the bases loaded. Could have been a lot worse. Shuckers trail 3-0 late.

Handelfry smoked another double to the RF corner. This time in the 9th with Ragsdale aboard 1B. Somehow Ragsdale didn't score - likely because he absolutely scorched that ball. He's held at 3B. Men on 2nd and 3rd. Two down. Anderson to the dish. Muddies trail 4-2. 2-0 count. He pops up sky high to 2B. Ugh. 4-2 Muddies lose and they risk losing their division lead.

[Joseph Zarr]

Ethan Murray hit his first Triple-A homer in a 2-for-4 evening. Atta way, Ethan! Game-tying poke at that point, no less.

Happy that Pratt is heating up. I look forward to him being in AAA to start the next season.

C Matt Wood has thrown out 30% (29.68% to be exact) of Southern League base runners. This is an unreal development. 19 CS. 45 SB. Juxtapose this to 37 SB. 6 CS. At Wisconsin. SO, to @wiguy94's point about C Marco Dinges last week...let's wait until he gets to Double-A?
