Clarke just hung a piece of off-speed meat. Dead Center. That's a two-run HR he just gave up to a 0.188 hitter. 3-2 Redbirds. I continue to be unimpressed by Clarke's output. Hangs way too many pitches.
AND, in Biloxi, we get a 9th HR deep fly over the left CF wall. 4-0 Shuckers. Woot woot.
RHP Yerlin Rodriguez on to speel Kuehner. We get a vintage Yerlin four-pitch walk. Sigh. Let's follow that with a 2-0 count wild pitch to advance both runners. My goodness, if Rodriguez could every corral his arsenal we'd have a high-leverage sure fire bet. What we have instead, at this juncture of his career, is a scratch-off lottery ticket. He's throwing 99 mph - hence, long leash. BUT, he just can not locate anything consistently. He's now walked the bases full. Can. Not. Happen.
