  1. Josh goes down looking on a really nice outer black heater after only off-speed early. Really nice sequencing there by the Nats lefty, Beeker.
  2. Payne walks to open the 5th trailing 4-3. Pena rips a double to the right CF gap. Line drive was poked perfectly where the ball was pitched. AND that brings up HOF'er Josh Adamczewski with runners in RISP. Nobody down. Lefty-on-lefty here.
  3. Welch is having trouble executing with two strike counts with danger on the basepaths. The tying run crossed on a jam shot bloop single into shallow CF. Not a bad pitch. More bad luck than anything. The issue has been locating the heater in other counts. Meanwhile the Shuckers, trailing 3-0, had two runners on and two down. EBJ worked a really good AB but then does what EBJ has been doing for a season or so - misfired on a hittable pitch. Got just under a low heater and popped up to 2B. Better batting approach early in 2025 but he is still struggling to find any type of meaningful results early.
  4. Another sitting dead center heater from Welch is poked to CF. Poor pitch in a pitcher's count. His heater is sitting and it is getting tagged. Has to fine tune that location to see better results. Men on the corners, 1 down. 3-2 T-Rats clinging to their lead. Need better execution from Welch.
  5. LHP Bjorn Johnson absolutely has a breaking ball. That thing dips a good bit. First time seeing him pitch. Meanwhile, the winds are swirling the dirt surrounding home plate. Man brutal conditions in Zebulon today. Meanwhile in Wisconsin 1B Blake Burke just made a beautiful diving catch fly out down the 1B/RF line for Welch's second out. Big out and catch there. This after his RBI single the inning before to plate Yophery.
  6. Welch's issue is he is hanging his heater dead center. He just gave up a smoked 2nd double off the RF wall this time. The ball is also flying in these winds - as demonstrated by Yophery's massive misplay in the first frame. OF work in Zebulon and Fox Cities looks extremely challenging today.
  7. LHP Bjorn Johnson will debut here to spell the plunked Garcia. Man, I hope Garcia is ok. It looked like he dodged a bullet and that may have just been a funny bone liner. Man on 2B. One down. Supremely bad luck that inning for Garcia who showed even in his low workload he obviously really knows how to pitch.
  8. Yophery comes back after the botched catch and rips a sky high triple down the RF corner. Meanwhile, in Zebulon the wind just ate up Nicasia. A lazy sky high fly ball ended up sailing about 30 feet behind where he thought that ball would land. He laid out in full and missed it by a good foot. These winds are swirling so that isn't all that surprising. It's an adventure. AREINAMO two-run 105 mph high heater BOMB over the LF wall. Wheww baby. 3-2. Meanwhile, Garcia just took a come backer off his throwing arm elbow. He is writhing in pain. Good gracious. Good signs. I think it may have been a funny bone. Whewwwwww. Perhaps dodged a bullet.
  9. This ump in Zebulon has extended the inner half of the zone by 6". Interesting zone. Nicasia works a walk. Two down. Man aboard. 3-3 in the fourth. Meanwhile, T-Rats trail 2-0. On to the 5th frame.
  10. 2-2 hanger from Welch is smoked to the LF wall. Runner from 1B scores. 1-0 Cedar Rapids. That was a middle middle hanging heater. That ball was crushed at 109 mph.
  11. Meanwhile, Di Turi greets the new arm over the LF wall baby! Well done, young man! THAT is what we're talking about. Huge poke. I love to see it. Prove me wrong, young fella. Get that bat working in the zone. ( @wiguy94: 2:15:36 on the replay. Beautiful swing. I know you'll want to see it)
  12. (I am zeroed in today on Wisco and Carolina, if you can't tell) MAN Welch is a player. He just induced a weak come backer with the same slider and savvily caught the runner too far up the 3B line. Man, that was awesome. Two down.
  13. RHP Chandler Welch has a very dangerous slider. That is a zesty pitch.
  14. Tunes into Wisconsin broadcast. Watches Yophery get absolutely eaten up by a deep fly ball into the winds of CF. Completely eaten up and misjudged the very routine catch. That may be the worst play I've ever seen him make in CF - a very good defensive outfielder. Right off the bat we have a man on 3B.
  15. AND, in a 2-2 count Di Turi doesn't get the chance. He takes the high outside ball. Bitonti is picked off 2B in a bang-bang steal attempt.
  16. Bitonti misses a back-to-back dart down the same RF line by about 6'. Whewwwww. That ball was absolutely ripped. He lays off an inside heater and takes a free pass. You love to see that type of AB. A two down mini rally. Let's go. Come on Di Turi. Give me an AB to get excited about, please. I don't need the result. But I'd like to see some swings of note.
  17. 402 footer. 102 mph off the lumber. HE IS HIM. Wake up Brewers. We have an absolute STUD on our hands.
  18. Pena immediately swipes his 2nd base of his day. That's 4 on the season already. Into scoring position as Josh took an outside ball and has the 1-0 count. AND he just crushed a dinger! MY MAN!
  19. The Muddies had traffic and an elevated pitch count on the Nats' starter Tejeda in that first frame. They haven't mustered much of anything since. He's retired four straight - three by K. Pena will try to break this trend. Two down in the third - he's having trouble staying off multiple low off-speed offerings. 2-2 count he lays off a slider low and away. He lays off a low heater. 3-2 count. AND, he lays off another low slider to take the free pass. Great work there. Adamczewski will get the RBI opportunity here.
  20. He escapes with a well placed high heater - pop out into 1B foul territory where Walling easily catches it. On to the bottom of the 3rd. Muddies trail 3-0.
  21. Falls behind 2-0 to Ochoa Leyva. Sneaks a breaking ball on the inner black. Misses inside. Then misses high and outside again. Back-to-back free passes where he is seeing his heater sail. Pitch count is up to 19. He's going to have to dig deep and find that early form to get out of this frame.
  22. Garcia gets a sky high pop up in the swirling winds of RF - Nicasia charges and stumbles into the catch. He gets an inside K on an off-speed (change-up or breaking ball) looking. I like his approach and location we're seeing early here. Lot of late swings and poor contact so far. He was a weekend starter for OSU last season. The K:BB ratio from college appears to translate early. Naturally, just as I type that he loses a heater high and well above the outside zone for a full count walk. Man aboard.
  23. LHP Sam Garcia will make his Low-A debut here to open the 3rd frame. 8th Rounder just last season out of Oklahoma State.
  24. Nicasia K'as on four pitches. Couldn't hold a check swing on a low outside slider. That was a rough inning offensively.
  25. A Nadal ground out to SS. Walling K's on three pitches - uncompetitive AB after the rough inning at 1B. Nicasia will try to find his groove.
