Eduardo Garcia was hit twice yesterday. In his first AB today, he gets smacked on the hand up and in. NOT happy. -
Boy the umps in Augusta have had some rough moments tonight. The homeplate zone extends about 4-6" off the stripe at any moment. The infield ump has missed some check calls and just blew a call at 1B when Briceno clearly beat the throw. They gave them the DP but the Mudcats scored an insurance run. 5-3. Bottom 6. Two down.
-
Yeah, we're back to not knowing what we're getting any time Miz throws a pitch. He also threw three WP's in that inning. Two heaters way inside Miller couldn't corral. Then a curveball in the dirt that bounced up above Miller as he blocked it. He's sitting 95-97 mph. We haven't seen the 98-100's.
-
Root with his first BB of the evening with two down in the bottom of the 5th. He is now 0-2, however, on the next batter. As an aside, Diaz has been fantastic fielding sliders off the plate tonight. Both Corniel and Root have been in the dirt a couple times and Diaz has scooped them all. Root has 5 K to 1 BB in 2 IP. Fantastic stuff. Great bounce back.
-
Now I see a Guilarte K swinging and Baez picked off 2B off the K. AND, Martinez Jr. picked off 2B after the lead-off double. Ugly. Come on men. Fundamentals.
-
112 mph line drive double down the RF line from Ernesto Martinez Jr. Breaking that massive 0-for-8 mini slump 😆
-
Tyler Black triple now to the deepest part of right CF. Just a routine reach poke flare liner triple to the gap. LOL. Amazing.
-
Meanwhile, Rodriguez gave up another long ball. His 2nd surrendered tonight. Change-up it appeared. Dead center. Pratto hits his 2nd long ball in as many nights. 3-0 Sounds trail.
-
OK, EBJ second dive back in the inning occurs right around 1:16:58. Diving back again he once again is clearly in pain and hunched over immediately after the dive. Just didn't look good first time through. Doesn't look good now. Sigh. He's clearly working on his shoulder briefly. He managed to steal 2B but this is a slide dominated by the glove side arm so the weight and stress is taken off the throwing arm.
-
RHP Bayden Root looking much better tonight. 2 K already. Walks have previously been his issue (8 in 3IP coming in). He is looking sharp. He gets another K looking to end his frame. You love to see it. He was very confident out there to boot. LET'S GO YOUNG MAN!
-
SO, first dive back is: 1:15:11 This is clearly uncomfortable already for him. He is very slow to get up. You can see he likely cursed himself here. Honestly, looking at this I wouldn't even be surprised if he did something like hairline fractured his clavicle en lieu of some type of shoulder thing. He hit that ground hard. He's slow to get up and Javik even says: "He's moving his arm in a circle."
-
Going back to watch EBJ's first inning now. I missed that he was also hit on his elbow pad in his AB. I mistakenly said he walked (had gone to the bathroom).
-
Meanwhile... In Augusta: The Mudcats just took the lead on a Blayberg Diaz oppo triple - really smacked a high outside oppo heater - and he is awarded home plate after the throw to 3B goes beyond and hits the foul nets. 4-3 Mudcats!
-
Yeah, my friend. Does not look good. I noticed it on the two dive backs and was already worried. Was thinking to myself: we're going to find out if he has a throw here. And, man, it just sucks. Absolutely sucks. I'm seriously hurting for this young man.
-
Javik Blake is a bit unaware in his call here. He clearly didn't see what I saw (he is further up in the booth) with EBJ. Those dive backs did something to the shoulder. He stayed in. Then he really found out what happened to that shoulder in the throw. I'm just in pain for this young man. He was once again showing all his weaponry in this game. Speed on the basepaths. Way underrated defense. Athleticism. This looks like another freak injury related to a, you guessed it, a dive back to 1B. I just can't. This is painful. This young man deserves so much better.
-
AND, FOLKS Who is telling you about Kay-Lan Nicasia?!? THIS guy. 105 mph off the bat absolutely launched over the RF wall for a two-run jack. This just in: I kind of know ball. Just sayin'.
-
1:24:10 on the MiLB.TV replay is the play described above. HOWEVER, you'll want to go back to the inning before when he walked to 1B as discussed above. That's where it really happened.
-
OK, this is what I was talking about above. Those dive backs to 1B were a problem. He worked through it. Then he made a fantastic charging scoop of a weak dribbler past the mound and made an uber-athletic sidearm toss to 1B for the out. IMMEDIATELY hunched over and clearly in pain injured. He's leaving the game after the trainer visited he noticeably shook his head in disgust. UGH. I am SO over these dang injuries to marquis players! COME ONE!
-
Oh no. AND EBJ is now down and hunched over. Ughhhh.
-
Miz with a gorgeous 84 mph curve dotting the outer corner to a lefty gets his 2nd punch out here in the 2nd. Still 0-0.
-
Tayden Hall lead-off line drive single to CF now has a six game hit streak. Let's get a mini rally here, boys.
-
EBJ may have slightly injured himself diving back to the 1B bag twice here in the first inning. He stayed in and stole 2B. Then, in a hit and run scenario, was thrown out at 2B after rounding 3B on a weak flare fly out to 1B foul territory. We'll have to monitor going forward. He was slow to get up twice and was working on that right shoulder.
-
Chavez Young makes a fantastic run down play down the RF line. Spins and throws a dime and nabs the runner by 6'. Really nice play. Really nice throw. Nice corral and tag by Monasterio. Rodriguez continues to get hit, however, early.
-
Corniel had two down and the bases empty. He walked two. Then on a 1-2 count hung another slider. It's actually a plus pitch. BUT, not when you're hanging it dead center cut. Mudcats now trail 3-0 in the 3rd.
-
Miz works around 2 walks getting the ground out to 1B. It's a scoreless first frame. Meanwhile, Black at 1B again, takes a first pitch oppo liner single to LF. BA above 0.300 now.
