Pratt lead-off double. The bullpen hilariously and emphatically points to the 3B ump and calls it fair. Man on 2nd. Nobody out top of 8. -
Wait a moment. I'm apparently a noob. They are playing two nine inning tilts? Hokay then. They are definitely going to the 8th. 4-2 Shuckers. Peterson gets the fly out to left CF to end his third inning of scoreless work.
-
AND the homeplate ump squeezes Peterson with two down in the 7th. Predictable like the sun rising and setting.
-
Man, that really chaps my hide. A lone out XBH is taken away. Murray K's looking, instead, on a 3-2 heater on the outer black. The Shuckers will have to work around at least the third botched call against them and hodl tight to their 4-2 lead. That was truly just such an embarrassingly poor call from the ump crew. The entire Shuckers bullpen knew it. Legitimately the fourth time (?) I've heard the Wahoos announcers say: Well, video certainly indicates that call went against the Shuckers. LOL.
-
Of course. The umps stay foul. What a joke. That's at least the third call blatantly wrong and against the Shuckers.
-
Umps are conferencing. That ball was fair by a foot. Unbelievably poor call. LOL. Let's see if this crew can manage to amend this overt mistake. My guess is they don't given how this game has been called repeatedly against the Shuckers.
-
Oh hey the infield ump blows another call robbing 3B Ethan Murray of extra bases. Unreal. He didn't even see the ball jumping in the air! Good grief.
-
AND we have a Delayed Start in Zebulon fwiw.
-
Peterson strands them via weak ground out to a charging Pratt at SS. Threat over. On to the 7th in a scheduled 7-inning first game. 4-2 Shuckers.
-
LHP Nate Peterson has his first runners aboard here in his third inning of relief work. With two down in the sixth he has runners on the corners. 4-2 Shuckers lead. Lead-off walk. Two pop outs. Really nice reach poke 2-2 flare into shallow RF.
-
We legitimately need to talk about the season INF Ethan Murray is having. Like a legitimate discourse. This is possibly an emerging MLB player before our eyes. Full stop. In the very least, with Seigler getting selected, this is clearly a Triple-A player. He just set a personal career mark in HR (7 on his season) and he spent time on the IL and it is only July 2nd! He looks chiseled. He's added muscle. He's lost nothing in terms of his innate gifts in the field where he is legitimately plus at every position. Cannon of an arm. This is possibly the most slept on MLB caliber player in the system. I will say yet again: he played 2024 injured.
-
I was not lying, btw:
-
That's all the Shuckers will get. They strand Lara at 3B after he reached via fielding error at the CF warning track (at least it should be - you never know with scorers). Boeve K's swinging. Zavi pops up to 3B. 4-2 on to the bottom of the 5th.
-
Ethan. Murray. MY MAN. He scorched an absolute laser 107 mph off the bat that may have cleared the LF wall at 1 foot high. That ball was an absolute 3-0 'go ahead and swing' rocket. Boom. 4-2 Shuckers. May have left the park in 1 second. Talk about serious candidate for 'My favorite season of 2025'. That against a hurler who is not easy to go long against - RHP Jacob Miller has only given up 3 this season and the 5th in his Double-A career spanning back a year.
-
1-2-3 first frame for LHP Nate Peterson. K, fly out to LF warning track (pop out that caught in the wind blowing out to LF), ground out to Murray at 3B. On to the 5th. 3-2 Shuckers.
-
Spain K's on a ball in the dirt. Man, he takes some hacks. 😅 Vargas grounds out weakly to 3B. Restituyo does not swing at the first pitch. But he K's swinging on four pitches on a slow swooping breaker dead center. That was a long pitch.
-
Childers ends his first inning of work via weakly hit force out to 2B and another K. Despite the HR (I tip the cap to the hitter on that one), that was a nice first frame. 3-2 and we are on to the 4th.
-
Childers K's his first. Gives up only his 3rd HR of his season (nice swing, honestly) on an inside low 96 mph heater. 3rd long ball in 38 some innings. Pratt biffs a routine hard hit grounder to SS and the Wahoos have a runner aboard. 3-2 Shuckers. One down.
-
Miller grounds out weakly to 1B. We are on to the Wahoos half of the third.
-
Now the infield ump joins the squeeze. Zavi clearly made it safely to 2B in a bang-bang play (tie actually does go to the runner). Infield ump calls him out. Once again the Wahoo broadcast booth agrees with me. These umps are having a day. Second out.
-
Zavi walks on five pitches. Boeve advances as ball four spiked in front of the plate and high into the air up the 3B side. Men on the corners for Miller. One down - I forgot the lead-off Lara weakly hit groundout to 1B.
-
AND a WP and we reclaim the two-run lead. 3-1 Shuckers! Breaking ball way inside in the dirt and to toward the dugout. Boeve moves to 2B.
-
Man alive, Mike Boeve loves hitting in Pensacola. He just ripped a 108 mph single into right CF and we have runners on the corners with Pratt moving on the pitch (singled bloop to shallow LF in the lead-off AB). Nobody out. Zavi to the dish.
-
Peek K's the next batter looking on the exact same pitch on the other side of the dish. How any fan could every be opposed to an ABS Challenge system is beyond me. He gets away with one in the final AB hanging a heater belted for a line out to Spain in RF. Kudos to Peek for escaping the squeeze - in more ways than One. That will likely be it for him given his workload this season. Shuckers lead 2-1.
-
He walks a run in on a full count on a pitch that was clearly squeezed. That was a strike. Goodness. The booth strikezone also clearly demonstrates it was a K looking. Umps going to ump. Peek clearly peeved and Spence agrees as does the entire Shuckers infield. 2-1 Shuckers. Bases still juiced. The Box Score rarely tells the actual story.
