A strike out. Followed by a first pitch Middendorf curve hitting the batter smack dab in the center of his back. Bases juiced. One down. Sounds still trail 2-0. Middendorf is sitting 96-97 on his sinker. That off-speed one clearly got away. -
Middendorf gives up a 1-2 seeing eye single through the left side. Men on 1st and 2nd. Sounds trail 2-0. Run is charged to Ashby.
-
According to the MiLB.TV feed we are still in a rain delay even though Middendorf just threw strike one. Ugh. Come on.
-
Rain Delay is over. Sounds are in the dugout. Still no video feed as of yet. RHP Ryan Middendorf will make his second appearance of the year for Rick Sweet and the Sounds. He'll take over for Ashby, obviously.
-
At least, yes. Hey, he got into the 70's pitch count today. He hit 94 mph. He still struck out 5. He ran out of steam. But, all in all, a successful debut all things considered.
-
It looks like the heavier weather may have moved along and the weather is clearing up in Nashville. I imagine they will actually finish this one? Yes indeed: We'll begin back again with the Saints having runners on 1st and 2nd. Nobody down. And, an unknown new Sounds pitcher. AND, an unknown video/audio situation.
-
So we have the Brewers Parking quagmire. We have the Bucks losing to the Wizards. We have the video/audio quagmire in Nashville where we are now in an ongoing rain delay. We had the Brewer Fanatic website down for quite a bit. Thankfully, the Brewers won. Phewwwww. Rough weekday slate.
-
A walk. A SB (no throw from Kahle on a 92 heater up). And a 1-2 count single to LF and it's 1-0 Sounds. Ashby is now sitting 91-92 and is down 3-0 to Miranda.
-
Anddddd he grounds out sharply to 3B. Nothing comes of the bases loaded scene and we're on to the 6th inning in a relative 0-0 snoozer.
-
Bases are now juiced for one Joey Wiemer. Big early season moment for Wiems who has singled and flied out to LF so far tonight. Two down.
-
C Nick Kahle pokes a single through the right side and INF Yonny Hernandez reaches 3rd base. Men on the corners. Two down.
-
94 mph K - his 5th. Another 1-2-3 inning for Ashby in the 5th. Unfortunately, this Sounds lineup is really struggling to make meaningful contact themselves. 0-0 to the bottom of the 5th.
-
Checking with sources. BUT, we have reason to believe this may be the case.
-
Ashby gets around a one out walk. Sees the minimum. Induces the 4-3 DP. I'd love to tell you it was a good one but, well, there's no video. 😵💫
-
AND, we've lost the video feed yet again. This is painful. Back to the radio feed we go. It would appear Ashby lost a slider on the pay-off 3-2 pitch. Walked the first batter?
-
Man, does Holland (St. Paul Saints) have an absolute cannon from SS. He can really rip it. Wiemer lines out to LF to end the 3rd on a slight jam shot on an inside off-speed offering. We're on to the 4th. This game is moving fast because, well, there's no real offense to speak of. 0-0.
-
He may be shaking off rust. And, his velo certainly isn't where we'd like it to be but Ashby is fighting through it and has 3 scoreless 4 K innings. His change-up is really showing out with aplomb. He is learning the art of the Mix with his patented sinker not having the life it once had currently. Also, this just in: Tyler Black has made two nice grabs at 1B. You love to see it. He just expertly scooped a quick scoop and throw from Kahle in front of home plate on a bang-bang play to get the dangerous Miranda out by a couple of footsteps. 0-0 and we are on to the Sounds bottom half.
-
Well, the Sound is still messed on the video feed. There's a one-two pitch delay video-to-radio (radio is ahead) BUT we do have video. 😅 Ashby goes 1-2-3. I'm still very much seeing a pitcher recovering from a shoulder injury. I have no video confirmations on speed in the scoreboard box (not surprising given this nightmare feed so far) but I am just seeing rust and middling velo by the naked eye.
-
Black hits into a force out at 2B but legs out 1B and is now aboard. Two down. Miller to the dish. We are still on the radio call only. I mean, it's fairly surreal to have an entire off-season of preparations. You have your inaugural knock at Nashville. AND, your sound is messed to begin things and then you completely cut your feed after 2 AB's? I'd expect this in Down East for their inaugural video season. In Nashville? Absolutely not.
-
Wiemer ripped a liner 111 mph - a low screamer - off the diving SS's glove into the OF grass. Single.
-
Yeah we have zero video in Nashville after 2 AB's. Lovely. 😅 Come on, Nashville. Let's get this together. This is your Home Opener for crying out loud.
-
Ummmm...also video issues. Game One and we are officially back in Minor League baseball land. LOL. It would 'appear' Ashby escaped. We are in commercial on the radio call.
-
Sound is completely messed early in Nashville. VERY low decibel level. Techno glitches right off the bat. Ashby gives up a single on an off-speed delivery to RF. Then a stolen base. Hernandez makes a nice play up the middle to grab the out at 1B. Two down. AND there is a random cut away. I am surmising their feed is all wonky. Classic.
-
We get our first surprise (for me) of the 2024 Sounds season with Nick Kahle keeping the Catching role in tonight's opening game with Eric Haase starting in RF (contrary to the lineup card submitted online).
-
That moment you enter your Log In info on MiLB.TV with slight trepidation only to quickly realize you've auto-renewed...for the 7th consecutive season. My labor of Love begins tonight. I am ready. SO ready to hear Jeff Hem's wonderful call.
