OH come on. LHP Russ Smith just struck out his second batter in his first outing back from the IL and the game is delayed due to rain. 😅 8 2/3 innings complete. Just end this. Booooooooo! -
With Chourio, I don't worry about any of this. I am simply absolutely undeniably enjoying every step in his journey. We are SO lucky to watch this young man play ball in the Brewers Minor League system. His zest for the game is palpable. He's a generational talent. He'll get there and they'll bring him there in right timing. That's my take. If it's this year, awesome. If it's next year, fantastic. If it's 2025? Great. I'm going to simply keep watching with my jaw dropped and grateful he is a Brewer in my lifetime.

Yeah, I didn't see anything and I don't think it was anything. They were only leading 2-1 at that point so I took it as get another faster set of wheels on the base paths. It was a men on 1st and 2nd, if I recall, with Zamora at 2B? Anywho, I don't think it was anything.
-
With this impending victory, btw, the Shuckers will take a 3 1/2 game lead over third place Montgomery. They will lead Pensacola by 1 game but Pensacola won the first half so they are irrelevant. They will simply be known as first half winners with an incredibly beautiful ball park.
-
Eat THIS Braves! 😅
-
It. Is. Unbelievable my man. I can't believe what I have witnessed this second half with these Shuckers. AND, it is contagious. Black and Chourio (and Quero) led the surge. Their teammates have jumped aboard. It's up and down this line up right now. SO happy for manager Mike Guerrero and hitting coach Chuckie Caufield. They deserve this run. For our viewing pleasures:
-
ER MER GERRRRRRD. Chourio. Two Run Bomb. 14-1.
-
Holy heck it's hard to fathom the offensive explosion we've witnessed by the Shuckers of late. They just laid down another 10-spot inning. Thats 2 10 run innings in 8 days. My goodness. AND this inning isn't over yet as they lead 12-1 here in the bottom of the 6th. Over this same 8-Day span, they have scored a grand total of 69 runs in 8 games. They have 2 1/3 innings left. Unreal. Edit to Add: Here's the highlight reel. Valerio's 3rd Long Ball of 2023 included:

RHP Will Childers step to the podium: 6 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 7K, 0 R of relief work today. Fantastic outing for Childers! The Mudcats offense, minus the bats of Luke Adams and Luis Lara, were held to one run. They lose 3-1 but win the series 5-1 on the road @ Columbia.
-
AND, INF Zavi Warren ripped another rbi dub. It's 2-0 Shuckers. Warren is on a proverbial tear. My goodness.
-
8 BB : 9 K in July after that free pass. Noice!
-
VanMeter grounds out weakly to 2B after lunging for a pitch low and tailing outside the zone. He was protecting after a replay challenge by the Tides' catcher proved correct and costly taking the 3-1 count back to 2-2. ON weekend games in the International League, they move to the challenge replay system. SO, it isn't the standard ABS. Really good call by the Tides catcher as the pitch was just nicking the inner line of the strike zone versus the lefty bat of VanMeter. Sounds lose 6-3. They leave the bases dripping. They split the series, I believe (?), 3-3.
-
Excuse me, I am live now and it's 6-3. Harrison struck out. Urias was just HBP so the bases are juiced. Two down. VanMeter will try to do some further damage.
-
The fine bullpen work of LHP Darrell Thompson, LHP Clayton Andrews, and LHP Alex Claudio have given the Sounds a chance after another RHP Jason Alexander outing in which he got hit around the ball park. Sounds trailed 6-2 (all Alexander's runs) in the 9th but have plated two with nobody down. Man on 2B. Devanney at the dish. Sounds trail 6-4 after Navarreto's 2-RBI double. Devanney just popped up to 2B so there is 1 down. Harrison to the dish.
-
Chourio starts his day with a single poke. Season OPS up to 0.818. Season BA up to 0.283. As Stevie Wonder would surmise: 'Hotter than July'. We need to super-impose Chourio into that album cover😅
-
RHP Aidan Maldonado returned to the lineup and continued his ongoing struggles: 1 IP 5 H, 1 BB, 3 K, 3 ER, 33 pitches. BUT, RHP Will Childers with his best work on the mound in quite some time: 4 IP, 1 H, 2 BB, 5 K, 0 R. You love to see that from a young arm who had been getting knocked around quite a bit as of late. Mudcats trail 3-1 in the top of the 6th as they look to steal one here and take the sweep @ Columbia.
-
😅 What the hyeckkkkk.
-
I didn't think so but I wanted to be sure 😅. Could be right. They are certainly deserving of more opportunities given their seasons. Incredible output. I selfishly want Black to have the opportunity to break the steals record but in the grand scheme of things it isn't all that meaningful.
-
In what regard?
-
I would like to quickly point out... Our four Affiliates in Carolina, Wisconsin, Biloxi, and Nashville are now a combined 64-47 to start the 2nd half. We have Biloxi and Carolina sitting in 1st place. We have Wisconsin alone in 2nd place 2 GB the Kernels (gaining 2 G as mentioned in this 4-2 series victory). And, we have Nashville in 3rd place but just 1.5 GB the first place Iowa Cubs as they sit 14-11 in the 2nd Half. Everyone is above 0.500. This is fantastic start to the collective second halves. Deserving of celbration.

T-Rats win 4-0 as RHP Shane Smith escapes a two out runners on the corners mini-jam. 3B Ben Metzinger will want both throws back to end the 9th frame. He was rescued by a Martinez Jr. super scoop on a side arm toss with plenty of time that bounced short the bag. This, one play after he made a diving stop and then threw from his knees short and wide of 1B as the Kernels Catcher ran down the 1B line. His arm, as I've said from Day 1 as a T-Rat, will likely continue to be his Achilles' Heel if he can't add more velocity. It just lacks that much needed pop and strength from that hot corner position. Time will tell. Regardless, huge series for the T-Rats.
-
Jarvis has struggled quite significantly since his promotion to Triple-A. I certainly wouldn't consider him 'nearly ready'. The majority of his stellar work this season came in the Southern League with a tacked ball. It's hard to tell what's next for him but 3 GS, 11 2/3 IP, 17 H, 14 ER, 2 HR, 12 BB, 11 K as a Sounds starter is not what I'd remotely consider ready for a random call to the MLB level. If anything, he may be ready for a re-assignment to Biloxi to test an untacked ball in a League he is more comfortable in.
-
The final line reads 7 1/3, 1 H, 3 BB, 10 K, 0 R Not too shabby. 😅 And, here comes RHP Shane Smith. Let's hope he keeps dealing and helps bring this one to the finish line.
-
Awwwwwww shucks! There it goes. A well hit roped single to LF. The No-Hit bid ends with one down in the 8th frame. Heck of a game for Jimenez. Kudos to manager Joe Ayrault for giving him the shot at history. The crowd gives him an ovation as he leaves the game.
