Felix Valerio scuffles on a strange, but routine, grounder off the mound and up the middle. He fails to get behind the ball and biffs it into the shallow left field grass off his foot. It looked to be an awkward but lazy effort on his behalf. The next batter hits a weak grounder through the gap between first and second base. An inning that 'should' be over for Carlos Luna continues. Shuckers still lead 3-2. -
The Shuckers have now struck out 7 times in 3 IP. They still lead 3-1. Take that K% zealots! Take THAT!?
-
Luna gives back a run in the bottom of the 2nd on a run-scoring double into the left field corner. Garrett Whitley says "Not so fast, Sirs!". He keeps his hands inside and rips a solo shot over the wall in left field on an inside off-speed pitch. I love me some Whitley, you know I do. 3-1 Shuckers.
-
Chourio's 2nd Double-A bat. How about a bases loaded two out situation? Sounds good to me. A swing and a miss on a first pitch off-speed and outside. The second pitch inside and in the dirt, ball one. The third pitch? He skied a double high and deep off the high wall in right center. Two runs scored. Lopez huffs and trudges home and is thrown out by a good 4 feet. 2-0 Shuckers.
-
Chourio debuts with a strikeout. Whitley followed with a soaring double to right center field. Wes Clarke takes a walk. Men on first and second, two down, and Felix Valerio strikes out on a 2-2 offspeed pitch.
-
Ready for the Ray, Chourio, Whitley outfield debut baby. Let's hope Carlos Luna brings some of his better stuff tonight. He's capable of bringing a solid 5 IP outing. But, you just never know.

Robert Moore gave us a closing series to get us excited for his 2023. He really came on late. Lots to love in his game. Some of those home runs really popped off the bat. It certainly would appear good things are in store.

Sun. 9/11 - Timber Rattler and Mudcat Finales
Joseph Zarr replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
Definitely a tough one. It would appear RHP’s Zach Brown and Matt Hardy are to blame for this one - Hardy gives up the 3-run game losing home run Jack in his first batter with only 1 out grabbed by Brown. It is not easy to lose a 6-1 lead in the ninth inning…probably the worst bullpen loss all year from the typically shutdown group. And the meltdown happened after the Sounds had added 2 insurance runs in the top of the 8th. Ouch. 2.5 game division lead with 16 games remaining. -
Living in the inland Pacific Northwest, I've come to utterly despise August. It's absurd nowadays. Way too hot for me. And, now it's fire season. At any given point in time in August/September we are liable to get lightning storms come through our brittle bones dry ecosystems. A week and a half ago one such storm swept through all of NE Washington and Northern Idaho. It started several fires. Today, now that the colder weather is pushing in with northerly winds, we have a literal blanket of dense wildfire smoke resting atop the Selkirk mountain ranges and our valley. I literally can not see the ridge less than a mile from our front porch. It's grotesque. The air is massively unhealthy. This has been my life every late summer/fall since 2019. And, man, it is really really intense.

From the MiLB Wes Clarke article: I absolutely love this. And, it's a testament to how the Shuckers have come off a 26-4 two game deficit to start the Braves series. This is all we can ask for as fans and, I want to again laud Garrett Whitley for what he's brought down to Biloxi since he was assigned to fill the void. Clarke has had a truly wonderful year and it's yet another player in the system who can man 1B and take a free pass with the best of them. I think we'd be hard-pressed to find any combination of 1B/DH candidates with more collective walks than Big Jon Singleton, Thomas Dillard, and Wes Clarke. All three are just truly enjoyable to watch play baseball.

Thanks for sharing. It was a different time, for sure. Sometimes nostalgia paints a cloudy picture of 'better times', but, it's hard not to think we all benefited greatly when things were slower and a wee more analog. I used to love how they had medium and fast pitch for the baseball. The fast pitch, to my young eyes, felt sooooooo fast!

I will never forget the many days and hours spent at 'Grand Slam' over there by the ol' Roundy's food warehouse. I took the long drive through Brookfield. Up North Avenue, past Brookfield East...those were fine memories. When I wasn't trying to hit balls in those batting cages, I was in that wild and crazy trampoline apparatus with the mini basketballs. So much fun as a youngster in those.

Sun. 9/11 - Timber Rattler and Mudcat Finales
Joseph Zarr replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
No Mudcats and no T-Rats makes Joseph a dull boy... ? -
Epic night for Clarke. Jarvis with a really nice outing as well. Corey Ray also hit his 2nd HR of the series.
-
They used them throughout, really. I'd say there were a good 6 or so used per team. It's so fast - from challenge to decision - you almost don't even notice if it weren't for the visual they show us on the screen. It's really: challenge in, screen shot of automated zone, call made, next pitch. Almost as fast as you can read this.
-
Holy biscuits did Robert Moore absolutely launch his 2nd HR of Low-A last night. Happy to see this highlight. My goodness:
-
Louisville takes down Columbus. Sounds lead 9-1 here headed to the bottom of the 9th. It would certainly appear the 4 1/2 game lead atop the division is back in play.
-
Joey Wiemer updated BB:K at Triple-A: 17:27 He walks in the top of the 6th and is 2-for-3 overall tonight. 0 K. Oh and he walks again. And my heart flutters.
-
T-Rats lead 3-0 as super stud, Carlos F. Rodriguez, has a certain kind of game going early. Oh, and this just happened in the bottoM of the 2nd:
-
Joey Wiemer follows with his 11th Triple-A double! I can’t keep up. It’s pandemonium.
-
Oh my is Jon Singleton on a late season power binge. He just dipped back into the home run buffet and launched another Jack over the wall in right field onto the Top forking Deck! Whewwww. That’ll plate Andrew Monasterio who was standing on first after his lead-off single. 8-0 Sounds! Wait, you don’t believe me?! Fine.
