AND, McGee follows with a single and a two-run jack. What are we doing here, Sweetie? Get this man out of the game for crying out loud. He is getting absolutely hammered.
Garcia just cleared the bases with a deep double to the deep left CF corner. 2-0 T-Rats. Lara followed with a line drive single to left CF. 3-0 T-Rats.
McGee falls behind 3-1 to the next batter. Bases juiced. Gets a strike over the inner part of the zone. 3-2 count. Hanger. Torched. Grand slam. How's this RHP Easton McGee project going in 2024? Yikes.
Ahhhh yes, the McGee relief stint gets better. In a full count, runners on the corners, one down...he walks the batter via pitch clock violation. My goodness. Hurt me, Easton.
McGee finds more trouble in his second inning of work. Oppo liner over an outstretched (but too short) Capra at 3B. Oppo line drive single through the 1B side. Runners on the corners. One down. Sounds stranded three runners in their half of the 6th so it is still a precarious 6-5 lead.
Really nice to see RHP Daniel Corniel in control of his stuff tonight. Great outing. He just completed his fifth inning. Really just a fantastic start. 3-0 Muddies lead headed to the sixth.
Wilken and Martinez have absolutely rocked two deep outs. EMJ just ripped a 106 mph deep out. Sparks pops out to 1B foul territory on the first pitch. That's three 100 mph plus rips in the inning. Two above 105. No runs. EBJ stranded at 3B. They continue to trail 3-0 after Seminaris' rough half inning before the bats.
RHP Easton McGee came aboard to relieve Henderson. Line drive single to CF. Double to the RF wall. Inherited runner scores. Men on 2nd and 34d. Nobody out. Sounds lead 6-3.
Meanwhile, Seminaris the starter continues to do Seminaris the starter things: hanging pitches in advantageous counts. Just gave up his 3rd run of the 2nd inning on a triple to deep RF. 0-1 count and he hangs a dead center 90 mph sinker. I swear it's a repeat performance nearly every start. Man, how I wish he could just be a bullpen arm!
Goodness gracious this Shuckers team. Seminaris has the runner dead to rights again. Left for 2B early. Ernesto launches the throw to 2B into left CF. Runner scores. Runner obviously safe at 2B. They continue to defy the eyes maintaining a hold on that playoff berth. They haven't been playing good baseball for some time. Their bullpen has saved them repeatedly.
So, the questionable walk to open Seminaris' 2nd inning. Hard hit grounder finds the hole past a diving EBJ. Men on corners. Throws a wild pitch to the backstop. 1-0 Biscuits. Man on 2nd.
Wilken just hit his hardest ball in weeks - a line drive gapper to deep right CF and it was tracked down by the CF'er just shy of the warning track. Hall was doubled off 1B as he left on contact.
Good rebound from Seminaris. He gets the weak chopper to the mound for the first out. He then picks the runner off trying to take 3rd and leaving early. Two down.
