    In the 'It's always something' with the cameras in Biloxi department... Back home after their road series in Columbus...they've leveled the lens finally but their CF camera is clearly smudged. It is just not a clear view. Amazing. Birchard just gave up an RBI double to deep RF. Perez couldn't run it down. T-Rats trail 1-0.

    Looks like RHP KC Hunt avoided a potential right ankle injury early in the first frame. He shook it off after a mound visit and some warm up pithces. Meanwhile RHP Ryan Birchard just gave up a lead-off double after falling behind in the count to open his night of work.

    Man this ump's strikezone is just not accurate. The Mudcats have gone looking on a couple that just weren't really all that close to strikes. So it goes in Low-A ball.

    With a runner on 2nd. Two down. We will see what version of LHP Caden Vire we have today. He nearly gets a check swing strike on a slider away. He ultimately gets the harmless fly out to LF. Love it. Well done, young man! Strand that runner baby.

    Torres got ahead again to lead off the 4th. He hung a dead center heater yet again. This time to a lefty. This time the batter poked a single into shallow right CF. Miles to go on the development path. Lots to love. Lots to work on. And that runner took 2B for the second time in two innings on Walther - both off-speed pitches. No chance on that one. Throw was rushed and caromed to the OF grass to no futher damage. Torres gets his 4th K (swinging on a slider off the plate) on a slider.

    Di Turi called out on strikes on a pitch that was likely 3" up and out of the zone? That was rough. I mean that's not even all that close. Ump really wanted to pull the trigger there.

    BITONTI DID IT!!!! A two run jack off the batters eye baby. Whewwwww. Thank the baseball gahhhhhds. 3-3 game. First pitch. Didn't even look like he got it all! Let's GO!

    AND, just like that, up 0-2 Torres throws a heater dead center cut. Can not happen. Two-run jack to the Kannapolis SS who is a very good player. 3-1 deficit. Torres' lack of polish or consistency continues. He giveth. He taketh. He is very young.

    This is, what, my fourth time watching LHP Wande Torres? I can't remember in full. I'm a geezer. What I'm trying to actually get at: his work down the line will hopefully be developing some sort of pitch or pitch combination that falls away arm side. As it stands, everything he throws swings glove side. The only pitch that goes arm side is his heater and that typically isn't planned - classic arm side run and sail from a tall hurler. He walks his second batter in the third after a weak ground out to SS to lead off the frame. His K:BB struggles continue.

    Lameda is doubled off on a Walther fly out to RF. He ran before contact. Lameda was late to recognize the fly out. He was late to get back to the bag. Two down. Made then flies out just shy of the RF warning track on his first pitch. He is 0-for-2. On to the bottom of the 3rd. 1-1 game.
  11. Joseph Zarr
    Walling! Moon shoot inside the pole in RF. You wouldn't know it with the Kannapolis announcers call. LOL. That's just his first long ball of 2025. Big time. 1-1 game. Lameda then gets the hitters bounce over the glove of the diving 2B as the ball travels into RF. Man on first. Nobody down.
  12. Joseph Zarr
    Home cooking, I say. Have zero clue what they're looking at there. Nothing about that said double. Nada. Meanwhile, Brizuela is just painting the inner and outer blacks with his off-speed. He's really dialed and has the Mudcats off-balance early.
  13. Joseph Zarr
    Yup, they scored that a 2B. That was a single and a misplay. That should not be an earned run. The hard hit liner ate Nadal up and he misplayed the carry as the ball caromed off his glove and over him and he casually gathered it.
  14. Joseph Zarr
    Torres finishes the inning with a swinging K on a slider that traveled well off the plate. Nice pitch. 2 K through 2.
  15. Joseph Zarr
    That runner crosses on a weakly hit groundout to 2B. 1-0 Cannonballers. Costly misplay in LF.
  16. Joseph Zarr
    Demetrio Nadal misplays a hard oppo liner to LF and the batter easily takes 2B. I don't think they scored that an error. It was very clearly a misplay. That runner advances to 3B on hard hit ground out to Bitonti. One down. Runner at 3B.
  17. Joseph Zarr
    Through two frames the Mudcats bats have nothing going. Brizuela has them all sorts of off-balance. Lots of weak flares and shallow fly outs. Nothing doing. On to the bottom of the 2nd.
  18. Joseph Zarr
    A third batter free pass (5 pitch). Torres was behind to the next batter and Walther saved him further damage by throwing the runner out at 2B by a half step. On to the 2nd.
  19. Joseph Zarr
    Three straight heaters. A 1-1 count fly to deep left CF just shy of the warning track. He opens the second AB with consecutive beautiful outside off-speed hooks. K looking. K swinging. Then the punch out on the inner black with a beautiful heater. Love it. Three pitch K.
  20. Joseph Zarr
    I see C Marco Dinges is still shelved yet not on the IL as of yet. What did I miss with Adamczewski this past week? I feel, in some regards, I'm still catching back up from my NFL Draft trip!😂 In other news, Bitonti K'd looking in his first AB. The struggle continues. Didn't put wood to a single ball in that AB. Watched two slow curve balls cross the plate for strikes without a swing. 2-2 count before he went down staring. Torres once again leads with heat. Let's see how this fares.

    Who else is going through 'Loss of Holobetz' symptoms this week? Sighs. The pain is real. Hopefully, some inspired play from the affiliated ranks will cure what ails me. Better yet, maybe a certain pitcher on the Brewers staff finds a renewed approach with plus results?

    Big test for LHP Wande Torres coming off his most impressive innings (in my humble opinion) after surrendering a two-run shot in his first frame last time out. Can he stack on that glorious second inning of work? He has typically begun outings by hammering that heater but that pitch often sails on him. I'd love to see them go more unconventional to start and build up that heater confidence by sprinkling it in around his breaking ball and change-up. Anywho, looking forward to this outing. Kannapolis is second in the Carolina League in strikeouts as an offense. Torres' K/IP totals aligned with pre-season expectations in his last outing. This would be a great outing to build on that very small sample.

    Fantastic debut write-up @Ben Lepak. Welcome aboard!

    As discussed in the off-season recap Vids Spencer and I did, Ibarguen was my ACL candidate who would bounce back and show he's a much better player. His 2024 summer was reallllllly bad. BUT, it's important we remember: stateside transitions can be unkind for some (for whatever reasons) and the ACL season is just a very compressed very short season. He had shown such promise in the DSL l so he was a pretty low hanging fruit to forecast as a potential breakout performer in 2025 in his second summer in Arizona.

    I have to say, one of the unsung fringe dubs this very time of year is that annual reminder there is indeed an 'American Cornhole League'. And it is indeed above the MLB Complex League in the Search Engines. #CountryStrong #FordTuff
