    Yeager strikes out the batter and it’s on to extras. Yesterday we heard this nugget from the Birmingham announcer - he mentioned and I posted: ”Crazy stat of the 108 outs the Barons have made so far in the series, 56 were strike outs.” Since then another 48 outs recorded and another 16 Ks. So that’s 72 Ks this series by Shuckers pitchers of the total of 156 outs, just under 50%. Crazy. Oh crap. After Warren flies out, Murray flies out and EBJ tries to go to 3rd base (why???) and he is thrown out. On to bottom of 10. And I doubt Yeager pitches a third inning….

    Shuckers bullpen was 0.41 this series according to the announcer, so the bullpen has done its job. Offense has 9 hits and 8 walk today. wow Spain with a nice running catch in right. 2 down. Garret Spain has really helped get this team going the past week or so.
  3. biedergb
    Ok. Tie game on to bottom of 9. EBJ grounds to 2B and it’s 4 unassisted for the out. Hopefully the Shuckers get another chance to hit. Offense showing a pulse the past few days.

    Miller draws a walk. And it’s a tie game. Lara the only hit this inning. Otherwise 3 walks. EBJ up now

    Biloxi has had their chances this weekend. 3-2 on Miller. Last chance here

    Just turned it back on (we had weather warnings here in mid Missouri) And Pratt doubles again. Runners at 2nd and 3rd. ugh. Wilken lines it right the 3rd baseman and a double play. Ugh. Brock is really struggling even when he hits it hard it’s an out. His prospect status is getting sucked into the Southern League black hole vortex sadly.

    I mean to be honest this describes me perfectly -- although I am working all season long to get that up to at least a 40-grade.

    Muddies win again! Miles Langhorne comes on and gives up a walk, then a high fly ball to RF, then every pitcher's friend, as 6-4-3 DP. The Mudcats pitching crew can join with Walling and Bitonti to create a basketball team (Holobetz 6'3", Johnson listed at 6'3" but looks taller, Vire 6'6" and Langhorne 6'4"). Anyway, that is a 13-2 record for a talented, young, and yes relentless team. Great pitching today, timely hitting, and overall good defense. EDIT: I will be back later today to watch the Shuckers and some guy named Alexander Cornielle , I heard he is a pitcher or something 😉

    Phew. Apparent Brewers minor league club killer Tim Elko strikes out with two men on and it is still a 13-9 lead for Nashville in Charlotte. Feeling that Sounds will need a few more runs to close this one out - did someone say more home runs?? 🤣
  10. biedergb
    Holy Heck - in Charlotte there have been 19 runs scored through 6 innings, and 12 HR between the two clubs, Nashville clinging to 13-6 lead, I mean at this rate is a 7 run lead safe??? Bases loaded with 2 outs and Deivi Garcia trying to keep it a 13-6 lead right now. Welp he throws a WP and the a single and it's a 13-8 game lead. Now really clinging to a 5 run lead which doesn't seem safe in Charlotte. Oh boy this is getting too interesting. Meanwhile in elsewhere in Carolina, Luiyin Alastre hits a gapper and legs out a triple. Shallow fly by Tyler Rodriguez brings up Braylon Payne who will try to atone for his 0-4, 4K day. And he does. a single to left. That has to feel good. 4K in the first 4 at bats, but gets a 2 strike RBI single to left in his final at bat. And did someone say "Relentless"? Luis Pena rockets a HR to left field. 383 ft, 102 EV. First HR this season.

    Hello, welcome Caden Vire. Tall, and throws hard, but not a ton of command. He walks two and hit a batter, and in 21 pitches this inning he only had 10 strikes. BUT... With the bases loaded and no one out - he goes 3 pitch strike out, and then 4 pitch strike out with the last pitch at 96 mph!!! Mr. Vire is a "live wire", tall, with velocity, and long moving parts, but he looked good once he started to find the strike zone in his first action as a pro above the ACL. Mudcats looking to add to what is still a 5-0 lead in the 8th inning.
  12. biedergb
    Bjorn Johnson has pitched 1.1 IP so far, not sure if he pitches the 8th or if they go to the bullpen or not. But this young man must be a pleasant surprise. Last year in the ACL he had 8 outings and only 1 was scoreless, and he had a 16K:18BB and allowed 26 H in 19.1 IP. This year all 4 appearances (so far) have been scoreless, and he has 14K to 3 BB in those 9 IP (and counting so far). I did not see this coming, but he worked on things in the off-season and it cleared is working so far this young season. It sounds like Caden Vire (who was just activated earlier this week) is getting ready, he may make his season debut, missing all of 2023 and only 10.1 innings in the ACL last year. And he is fact coming in, and Johnson's day is done so those stats above hold up through today. Very nice job Mr. Johnson And welcome to the Carolina league Caden Vire! Excited to see what you can do.

    You are not going to see this often given his talent level. But Braylon Payne now 0-4 with 4Ks. Pena and Bitonti then get singles, well Luis Pena does his things as the single is a slow dribbler with a wide throw so he is on second base and Bitonti gets the grounder up the middle that just gets through the infield. 5-0 Mudcats. HR search is still on for Bitonti, as I would not have guessed he would have 0 HR through April 20th if asked at the start of the season. On to inning #7.
  14. biedergb
    Josh Adamczewski with a gapper to score two. And it's 4-0 Mudcats. They chase Yates, and then a GIDP ends the inning. John Holobetz pitching now into the 6 th inning. He is only at 57 pitches to get thru 5 innings. In the top of the 6th, he runs into a little trouble, full count and gives up a single. But on his 70th pitch gets a huge K. Dinges throws another ball into the outfield on a steal attempt. Boy he is struggling there today. Then another longer at bat and an infield hit as Di Turi makes a nice play and the throw is just down or wide and Bitonti can't come up with it and the runner is safe. Now Holobetz is out, but his line: 5.2 IP, 8K, only 1 BB, and 3H. No runs so far. And 78 pitches of which 56 were strikes! Giving way to Bjorn Johnson now who comes in and does Bjorn Johnson things - strands the runners with a long fly out. OK 4-0 through 6 1/2 innings, let's see if the Mudcats can keep the offense rolling.
  15. biedergb
    Paused the Mudcats for Easter lunch. And Holobetz needed about 48 pitches to get through 4 IP. And the Mudcats were given a second chance when Gongora left the game. Yates (who gave up hits/runs in his start on Tuesday against Carolina) comes in and get through the 3rd, but struggles in the 4th. Adamczewski breaks up the no hitter, and Yates walks the bases loaded, and walks a run in. Payne clubbers a pitch to deep right, but 20-30 feet to far to right and just a long foul, then strikes out looking at a pitch on the outside corner - that call has been 50/50 today. Dang. His line is 0-3 with 3Ks so far - but Gongora was just unhittable and he struck Payne out twice. Holobetz back out for the 5th inning Cruising along right now.
  16. biedergb
    Dinges is still very much a work in progress. His glovework is OK, but he struggles. He is very athletic and has a good arm, but just sailed a throw to 2nd into CF, and the runner is safe on the steal. Not sure the throw beats him, and he was quick, but the throw was clearly off. And he had the same thing happen at the end of the 2nd, but since it was a foul tip that he caught for strike 3 and out #3 the throw past 2nd base didn't show up anywhere, and was excusable. Things to work on, but I think he can be a capable catcher if those things are improved with coaching/experience.
  17. biedergb
    Sounds have turned the line up over in the first impressive inning. Holobetz gives up his first hit, no no-hitter for him. Still pitching in the 3rd, 0-0 game as the Muddies are without a hit so far.
  18. biedergb
    And another quick inning for Holobetz as he strikes out the side working around a 2 out walk. 22 pitches in the first 2 innings and 17 for strikes. Considering he walked a batter, that is only 1 ball to the other 6 batter combined, Will see if the Relentless Mudcat offense can solve Shorebires LHP Gongora.
  19. biedergb
    Man Delmarva's starter is making the Mudcats look foolish. Sure a patient walk by Pena, and a HBP (what else?) to Dinges, but the others struck out and there were some pretty bad looking swings for many of these bats. Holobetz had a very quick and efficient 1st inning, nice rebound so far.
  20. biedergb
    First of all thanks for the scouting report. And yes since his inauspicious debut, he has had 4 scoreless outings, with no hits, no walks and 6 K in those 4 innings. Yes very small sample size, but he had a rough first outing, and since then has done exactly what you want young pitcher starting his career to do - throw strikes, get outs. He is 21 (turns 22 in June), and was one of several UDFA last season.
  21. biedergb
    Made went down in a heap when he got hit. It looked like a breaking ball and hit his leg/foot, and I think back leg. He was down 15-20 sec or so, then sitting up. After a delay he ran to first. And as noted stayed in the game to steal a base, score a run and play defense. I am hopeful this was a “it’s still sore” so “let’s take you out in abundance of caution”. Ha. Yes. And on my iPad it’s a 10 sec forward, which depending on the pitcher is even more perfect. On line you can go back to the beginning of the game and watch on delay if you want, since forwarding through mound visits, commercials, and other down time you can catch up. So much of a great tool if you are focusing on certain players (I’ve been keying in our pitchers this April so far). And great write up. Thanks again!

    Biloxi had 5 hits and 5 walks, 4 runs and a 4-0 lead in the first two innings, but after that they gave up 6 runs, and the offense had 2 hits and 2 walks total from innings 3-9, with Murray’s HR the only hit of consequence. 6-5 loss. Bummer end to the day. The afternoon and evening were kind to the Brew Crew, but the night was not so much
  23. biedergb
    Shuckers try. Spain walks, Lara singles and only 1 out. Then Pratt strikes out trying to check his swing on a ball in the dirt. Ball got away and runners advance but Pratt is out. Wilken big swing and hits it into deep center, just under it enough and to the deepest part that it’s a routine out. And they still trail 6-5. Only 3 more innings for Biloxi to try to tie or take the lead back.
  24. biedergb
    Whoops. Must have been a game day glitch. As it froze up I guess. It’s 6-4 Barons after an 3 run inning, and as I type all that Ethan Murray homers. 6-5 Barons still. Shuckers offense needs a little more magic.
  25. biedergb
    Boy I step away for a bit and miss …. Well nothing. I think the shuckers had one walk since the 2nd inning. Still 4-3. But they had a weekend of offense on the first, and taking the rest of the weekend off now.
