All domestic affiliates (ie non-DSL clubs) so far have won, pending Wisconsin to try to keep it undefeated.
Yikes Dinges throws to second better but not great and Pena couldn’t get in front of it.
Runner at 3rd. 4-3 TRats lead. 2 outs. Need to keep the runner at 3rd. Let’s go Broca.
Not dominant lines. But solid starts by DeBerry and Travis Smith, nice for ‘24 draftees who move up, giving solid innings. Both could be inning eaters with K potential, nice to have that depth.
Houdini act by Peek. Kept it ties after 4 straight hits. 6-6. Shuckers up to try to walk it off.
i didn’t watch but grounder with force out at home, pop out and then I saw the liner out to LF. Nice job. Wish it was only 1 run, but just makes it more dramatic with a walk off right?!?
Peek gives up a hit and it’s 6-6. Still no one out. Yikes. Not a great outing for Peek who has been good,
But Nova gets two outs for Carolina to try to close it out.
Heading to top of ninth in Biloxi. Leading 6-4. Gotta get three outs
Mudacts trying to add more - but not yet - a called strike three on DiTiru it was a borderline call and it’s 2 outs now.
Awful call. Peña goes home on Dinges grounder and he seemed to beat the throw not sure if the hands touched the plate but wow another close call and not sure if I agree. Chris Mehring is now convinced so maybe he got him but still very close. 4-2 TRats still. Perez up and Dinges on first
Cooper Pratt with a HR. I didn’t see but 2 run shot.
Hot dang. Peña with a nice night (just stole 2nd and going to 3rd yessir), Dinges and Payne back. Burke hitting and Fischer debuting tomorrow
‘AND if (just IF) Pratt can get hot oh boy wow that would be so so nice
Made with a big walk. Then Peña up and first pitch is a balk.. not sure I saw anything but makes up for the questionable call earlier and in other games too. Run in 2-2
Two pitches later and Pena singles home two. Nice high A start for Luis.
Nicasia has a chance to make up for it and just watches strike 3. Yikes. TRats trying to get two runners on base home for a run or two…
Meanwhile - Garret Spain have yourself a night. Another solo HR 4-4.
Checks to see MacGregor debuts for Biloxi. But single and a double and now a n error Clingstones up 4-3.
‘in Wisconsin:
Ugh. Base hit up the middle and Nicasia just misplays the ball again. Runner was going to score but now runner advances to 2nd. Fortunately a grounder to end the inning. Great Lakes leads 2-1
Nicasia is not a natural center fielder. Just mis-played a well hit ball to deep center. Tough play but he got there but just mis-played the glove.
Not sure there’s a natural CF in Wisconsin.
That’s what you like to see. 1-2-3 inning by Rivera after his challenging in the 6th. On to top of 8 in Fayetteville. muddies lead 4-3 still.
In Appleton - it’s 1-1.
Biloxi is still tied 3-3 as well.
Peña makes a nice catch to start to atone for prior mistakes.
This is after Travis Smith issued a walk on what looked very much like what I see strike 3 call.
I mean I won’t call out the umps, but it was an ummm unusual call.
Pena snares the liner to make out 4 …. Err out #3
