Palmer has 8 K now as Payne goes down looking at a 3-2 pitch on the inner half. Ump has been calling that pitch all evening. Mudcats bats have been looking more than swinging. -
Wilken's first AB since June 18 he strikes out swinging on a low outside slider. He is back. And that is the result.
-
Hernandez now qualifies for what could be his 10th victory of his season. This would be the first Mudcat with double digit wins since 2019 if it were to hold. Let's get it!
-
Palmer has a career-high 7 K's through 4 IP. He gets Di Turi and Holguin swinging. On to the 5th.
-
Di Turi's body language in the batters box bespeaks of a young man mired in a prolonged slump. He knows he's missing hittable pitches. The timing isn't right. The swing path is off. He goes down with a check swing sword for his second K swinging tonight. Sigh. Man, I am rooting hard for him to rediscover what made him great for the majority of the season before these last two months.
-
Hernandez induces the weak topper ground out to the mound. That's just 45 pitches through 4 IP for Melvin. That could bode very very well for the length of his outing and the pitch count of the bullpen. Let's hope this keeps going! Meanwhile, Fredericksburg is trailing Lynchburg 3-1 early.
-
That's a 6-4-3 DP. Just like that, two down. Yeah baby. Love it. That's the Muddies 82nd DP of 2025.
-
First pitch swinging in the Delmarva 4th. That's a first-time lead-off reaches base to start a frame. Single into CF. Tying run aboard.
-
Good luck, my friend! Doing the good work Papa Bear. My 7-year-old heads back to school September 3rd. On to 2nd grade. Woot woot. Our 22 yo took the year off a year out from finishing their Bachelor of Arts. Nothing like the 15 year age gap for perspective. 😅
-
Encarnacion goes down looking on three pitches. Another filthy off-speed after he ripped a heater up and away for a swinging strike. And, Anderson is pretty much swinging at anything early so he starts 0-1. He then flies out just shy of the warning track in left CF. On to the 4th. Only made Palmer throw 8 pitches that inning. No bueno.
-
Bitonti goes down swinging at two consecutive fairly filthy sliders down and in. Palmer has 4 K through 3 IP. He clearly has 'stuff'.
-
I was laughing at that as well the first time through the line-up. Like 3-4 year age gaps.
-
Hernandez works around it with a 3-2 fly out straight to Payne in CF. May have moved one step. On to the bottom of the 3rd.
-
I think the infield ump blew a call at 1B in a bang-bang slow ground out to 1B. Bitonti made a poor throw to Hernandez who was covering. They gave the hitter a single. A better throw to the bag that actually hits Hernandez in stride gets the runner out. I see it as an error. What's new? I'm in disagreement with a Minor League scorer. It also looked as tho Hernandez's toe touched the edge of the bag. These calls mean something. Runners on the corners now with a single snuck through the hole at SS. Men on the corners Two down. The Shorebirds two out rallies continue. Muddies lead 2-1.
-
Palmer is at 49 pitches through 2 IP. Hernandez is at 27 pitches with two down and an 0-1 count in the 3rd. I like this trend.
-
He is certainly hitting the ball. He has a good approach. Really nice professional piece of hitting in his first AB. Other than that, I think it's too early to tell. BUT, I like his approach at the dish. That's more than I can say about most of our youngest catchers. 😅 He also has some nice size. That sticks out. He's got a good frame to work with. There's lots to like here.
-
Ebel bloops out to the 3B. Just doesn't have the feel for it so far tonight. Not swinging at very hittable heaters. Not timed right on the balls he is hitting. 0-for-2. K looking. Soft line out to 3B.
-
Ragsdale gets to 1B via Catcher's Interference. He immediately swipes 2B. Man, Ebel is looking at a lot of pitches early. He is sitting on hittable pitches.
-
That is indeed only the 2nd HR Palmer has allowed all year (sent to the Orioles in the Ramon Urias deal - was pitching for Fayetteville).
-
These Mudcats bats would do well to see the ump is very very clearly calling the inside portion of the plate. Braylon Payne. TWO RUN JACK!!! Over the RF wall. Yeah baby. That was ripped. 2-1 Muddies.
-
Di Turi opens the second with a swinging K. Man, this ongoing slump is brutal. He has one August RBI. He is approaching 6-for-60 territory. 24 K to 11 BB.
-
Hernandez has 2 K swinging early on the change-up. As Edwards states, it's hard to overstate just how good and how important Melvin has been to the 2025 Mudcats. Amongst his 5 Quality Starts: Carolina League Stats: Tied for 2nd in Wins First in ERA First in WHIP First in IP First in BAA He gives up his first hit a slow grounder up the middle. Di Turi makes the sliding stop but he didn't really have a chance at 1B. He gives up the triple off the right CF wall. Back-to-back two out knocks and it is a 1-0 deficit.
-
Anderson takes ball one inside. He fouls back a belt high center cut heater - that was the pitch to hit. Whiffs at a slider outside. Whiffs at an even lower more outside slider nowhere near the zone. A flailing four pitch K. Not a good look for the young outfielder. Muddies strand 3. On to the 2nd.
-
Encarnacion now walks on four pitches. Jose Anderson will try to do the damage. Bases juiced. Two down.
-
Ragsdale to 2B on a WP. Bitonti has the green light in a 3-0 count but fouls it back. He walks on the next pitch. Men on 1B and 2B. Two down for Encarnacion. Stanley has stacked five consecutive lefties vs this Delmarva RHP starter.
