  1. Pratt reaches on a throwing error as the 3B looked Rodriguez back to 2B and then took way too long to get to 1B. Throw was wide up line and Pratt beat it regardless. Two men on. Nobody down for David Garcia who already has 3 hits.
  2. Meeker gets a swinging K for his second out. Men on corners. Two down. AND, Owen Miller gets eaten up by a hard hit grounder to 3B. Took a high hop on him but he has to make that play. 2-2 game now. That's a play he has to make to maintain the lead. Meeker gets the weak fly out to LF to end the threat with men on 1st and 2nd. Meanwhile, in Charleston Yophery Rodriguez just cracked a 106 mph lead-off double to open the 9th frame. Pratt to the dish as the Muddies look to pull off a complete comeback. They still trail 5-4. Nobody out.
  3. RHP Morris Austin is making things quite interesting in the bottom of the 8th of this one run game. He's conceded 2 BB's and a single. Thankfully, Mercado nabbed that runner at 3B! Men on 2nd and 3rd. Two down. 2-2 count. Austin gets the K looking to end the threat. Meanwhile, in Nashville Meeker is finding trouble in a 2-1 game top of the 8th. Men on the corners now. Only one down.
  4. In a 2-1 game, Tyler Black yet again demonstrated why he can be a hazard at 1B. He short arms a catchable toss from Zamora at SS (not a great throw by any measure) and the ball travels to the stands. Thankfully, Mejia is a heady defensive catcher. He sprinted to that ball and fired a dart to throw the runner out at 2B. Either way, Black is anything but a natural at 1B.
  5. Pretty much what I saw. That walk was pretty impactful when all was said and done. Lotta speed on the bases there. BUT, to your point, he lost the zone after the K. These hiccups are to be expected, however. He hasn't started games with the Shuckers for a long period of time at all. This is still all new.
  6. BIG OF assist by Reidy Mercado from RF. A bloop single into RF the lead runner rounded the bag and in a bang-bang play Mercado got him because the ball got there first tho the tag may have been applied a hair late during the slide. 5-4 River Dogs who get another out on the base paths.
  7. HUGE hit from Miguel Briceno. He takes a first pitch in-tailing off-speed pitch in the low portion of the zone and rips a double to the deep RF wall. That scores two more. All three men on base have scored. It is now a 5-4 ball game. Guilarte to the dish. A new pitcher coming to the mound. Two down. Tying run at 2B.
  8. And, just like that LHP Nate Peterson gives up a roaring double off the high LF wall. 6-0 Biscuits. The slog continues into the dark night.
  9. Big opportunity for the Mudcats here in the top of the 8th. Bases juiced. Nobody down. The Mudcats have outhit the River Dogs 7-3. They trail 5-1. Lotta sloppy play.
  10. Trailing 5-0, a routine grounder right to EBJ. He sails that ball by a good 3' and Boeve has to scale the ladder and can't get the tag down in time. These 2024 Shuckers. Where every play is impossibly hard. Next batter? Lays down a perfect bunt 3B side. Two men on. Nobody down. Is there a silver lining with this ball club? Maybe when the first half calendar flips to the second half?
  11. Yeah, I stepped outside to close a greenhouse when it was 1-0. A 3-0 deficit for the Shuckers is akin to 6-0 for a standard team. They just struggle in each and every way to score runs - including some very poor looking AB's. They are truly a lost ball club at present. Like utterly lost.
  12. RHP Jeison Pena comes on in relief and does a very Pena thing: launches pitch one about 6' outside the zone and to the backstop. AND, I see he's given up two runs. Also a very Pena thing to do. The struggle is mighty for the young and volatile righty. He is pulled for the second reliever of the frame - RHP Aidan Maldonado. Zero hits surrendered in Pena's two-spot. Very Pena. Muddies trail 5-1 headed to the 7th.
  13. Boy Pratt has absolutely smashed two balls tonight. Missed a HR to left CF by about 3' early. Got out in front of a slider with runners on the corners with two down in a 3-1 deficit here in the 5th. Absolutely crushed that ball. BUT, way in front. Unfortunate. He'll get there. He has that power in his frame. It's a matter of time for him to learn how to access it.
  14. This just in: RHP Shane Smith is continuing to deal as a starter. And, the Shuckers offense is continuing to leave him on an island. What's new? Not much for these offensively inept Shuckers in 2024. He just struck out the bookends in the third. 0-0 game. These Shuckers bats are not what you tune in for. Tune in for the small storlyines. Smith is absolutely front and center.
  15. Walling is having that kind of night where the baseball knows he's learning how to play 1B. He now can add getting absolutely eaten by a hard hit chopper down the line glove side. This is a journey for Walling at present. Tough sledding. Another runner on with a lead-off double in the 4th. Corniel's season continues to tail away as the Mudcats are trying to grab a playoff spot. Walling's play was ruled an error - no 2B. Likely the right call. Thankfully, Guilarte grabs the DP line out to 2B to end that current threat.
  16. Hey, the Mudcats get a call - the runner called out at 2B was clearly safe. And the runner at 3B clearly took Home as a result. No matter, it's Low-A. He's OUT at 2B. Corniel escapes another third inning quagmire with a gift. 😅
  17. Agreed. Principally. AND, especially how the inning is unfolding. Guilarte tried to do too much. If that ball isn't a chopper I get it. Also, Walling really showing his wonkiness at 1B today. Nothing easy. He just destroyed any chance at a DP with a rocket launch high to 2B. Pratt grabs it. DP unlikely but after that throw? No chance. Walling has had three fielding oppos at 1B and all have been adventures.
  18. Let's make that 2 HBP now with the 2 BB. Corniel already has the bullpen up again in, wait for it: his 3rd inning of work. This is almost becoming an exact replica of his last outing. The struggle is real. Get out of this without further damage? It's just a two-run rough inning. Gotta buckle down here.
  19. Corniel now has 2 BB, a HBP and he's at 47 pitches in the 3rd frame. One down. He may be facing the River Dog's hottest hitter to boot from the left side. The youngster is working out some kinks of late.
  20. Yeah, on the replay it looked like that Guilarte throw one hopped. It had to be perfect. It wasn't. It short-hopped despite what the scorer might thing or the River Dogs announcer. IF Guilarte is going Home there he has to make the perfect throw. Otherwise, just take the put out at 1B and have a runner on 3B. It's a 1-0 game. The runner just stole 3B as well. We know Norman's potential knock is his lack of defense behind the dish. But, Guilarte is credited with the error there and that is the right call.
  21. Hey now! Tyler Black just took a lefty inside breaker and crushed that pitch deep into the RF concession stands. Yowza. 1-0 Sounds. AND, in Charleston, Guilarte fields a high chopper and tries to go to home plate. In a bang bang play the throw just wasn't quite good enough or Satchell Norman proves his ACL defensive stats don't lie. Hard to tell. It was a bang-bang play. Either way, Norman failed to hold onto the throw and two runners end up scoring and the batter reaches 2nd base in the process. 2-0 Mudcats trail.
  22. Corniel might have trouble here after the HBP. He gives up a golfed double to the RF wall. Heck of a hit on an inside slider. 105 mph off the lumber. And O'Neal is to the mound to talk things over with his young hurler. Men on 2nd and 3rd. One down.
  23. Another week for Shuckers baseball. Another three up and three down frame . This one ends in a Wilken swinging K. Corniel just plunked his second batter in the 3rd when a change-up sailed into the batter's back. Carlos F. Rodriguez continues his Triple-A ascendance with a dominant first frame. Night and day difference for Cargo since the beginning of 2024.
  24. The homeplate ump takes away an early K for Corniel to start the 2nd. Instead, he induces the 6-3 groundout. Beautiful swooping slurve clearly in the zone casually called a ball in an 0-2 count. Anywho. Walling gets the groundout at 1B for the second out. They'll call that a slider, I see much more slurve action on that pitch. He's really pounding the slurve and change-up here in the second and gets another groundout to Walling at 1B. Walling certainly didn't look smooth or dialed on either play but no errors and they'll be scored outs. Let's remember: this is a new position in 2024 as he played entirely in RF in last season's ACL.
  25. At this point, I think you take his name literally because that is his name. 😅 In Latin America that is likely pronounced 'Madé' with the 'e' sounding like an 'a'.
