Much has changed since Tim Dillard was a 6-year-old kid growing up in Saltillo. Back then, Dillard's father (ex-major leaguer Steve Dillard) advised his son that the quickest way to the majors was to become a switch-hitting catcher. But Dillard's path to the majors may be delivering pitches instead of catching them. Dillard, making his Double-A debut Friday night, allowed one run on just two hits in 6 1/3 innings to lead the Huntsville Stars to a 4-2 victory over the Mississippi Braves at Trustmark Park before an announced crowd of 3,191. Dillard, who platooned at catcher and pitcher while starring at Itawamba CC, retired the first nine batters he faced before M-Braves leadoff batter Gregor Blanco doubled in the fourth. "He was impressive," said M-Braves manager Jeff Blauser, seeking his first victory after also dropping Thursday's season opener by an identical score. "Even when Blanco got that hit, he still managed to keep us in check. I don't know much about him, but from the looks of it, he has a good future ahead of him." Dillard, described by Baseball America as "the best control pitcher" in the Milwaukee Brewers minor league organization, used his control Friday, allowing just three baserunners and striking out three batters. "I don't strike out a lot of people," said Dillard, a 2001 Saltillo graduate who grew up with a Little League field practically in his backyard. "... I had family and friends here who had never seen me play pro ball, so I was a little nervous. "I couldn't sit down, especially hitting because you're scared and your adrenaline is pumping at the same time." Dillard's teammates helped him relax a bit early on. Huntsville's Drew Anderson blasted a two-run homer over the right-center field fence to give the Stars (2-0) an early lead. Dillard helped his own cause in the fourth with an infield single that plated another run. Huntsville's Jeff Eure continued his torrid season-opening pace at the plate. A night after going 2-for-4 with a home run, Eure reached base his first three times Friday and scored twice. His second run gave the Stars a 4-0 lead, which proved to be plenty of cushion for the Huntsville pitching staff, which allowed just four M-Braves' hits after giving up six in the opener. "I am not worried about our hitting," said Blauser. "We're going to be fine. We've got some guys that swing the bat up and down the lineup. It's just one of those things where we really haven't got going yet. We have had some opportunities, but just haven't come through yet but that's just part of the game. It's obviously a little more glaring when you start the season that way." Dillard wasn't the only Mississippian who had an impact Friday. First baseman Mike Rosamond of Madison blasted a two-run homer in the seventh to get the M-Braves' offense going. It was the first home run of the young season for the Braves, who finished 2005 with 26 round-trippers at Trustmark Park. "That was a big hit," said Blauser. "I don't ever think we're out of the game, but that put us just one shot away, especially with the way the wind was blowing out there tonight." Trailing 4-2 in the ninth, the M-Braves threatened as Matt Esquivel and Rosamond both reached on two-out singles, but Onil Joseph grounded out to end the game. Right-hander Dave Coggin took the loss for the M-Braves after replacing expected starter Brady Endl, who missed the game due to allergies. Coggin (0-1) allowed three hits and walked two batters in the first before retiring seven straight.

Habitually, she keeps track of the game in the intricate hieroglyphics of baseball scorekeeping. "It's the way I stay focused,'' she explained. Friday's scorecard was a keeper. Huntsville Stars 4, Mississippi Braves 2. More importantly to her, 6 1/3 innings, two hits, one run, one walk, three strikeouts - the pitching line for her son, Tim Dillard, the 22-year-old Huntsville right-hander. It was a blueprint for efficient, put-the-ball-in-play pitching. Said manager Don Money, "He goes right after the hitters.'' Mary Jane's cell phone rang late in the game, a call from her husband Steve, a former major leaguer and now coach with the Cardinals' Quad Cities farm club. Except for Steve's prior commitment, it was a nice Dillard family homecoming. They live in Saltillo, a suburb of Tupelo, a couple of hours to the north, and Tim played at Itawamba Junior College (as a pitcher and catcher) and at Ole Miss. Mary Jane works at a hospital in Tupelo and saves up off days for her baseball trips, to be divided this summer between the short hauls to nearby stops and some visits to the Midwest League. "I was a little nervous,'' Dillard said. Asked when he finally got over the jitters, he admitted, refreshingly, "I don't know if I did. I couldn't sit down (in the dugout). Especially hitting. You're scared and the adrenaline is pumping at the same time.'' As for his performance, "I know some stuff I need to work on, but for the most part I felt comfortable out there.'' This five-game series continues tonight at 7:05, with Corey Thurman, a former big-leaguer with Toronto, pitching for the Stars against Chris Waters. After finishing up in Mississippi, the Stars return to Huntsville for the home opener Tuesday against Birmingham. The Stars gave Dillard a 2-0 lead in the first after a Callix Crabbe single and a Drew Anderson homer to right into a 30-mph crosswind. Jeff Eure, Thursday's hero with a two-run homer, was the catalyst for the next two Huntsville runs, doubling in the fourth and scoring on a 35-foot topped grounder by Dillard, then singling with two out in the sixth and scoring on an Ozzie Chavez double. The Braves ended their 12-inning scoreless streak when Stars' reliever Stephen Bray yielded a wind-aided two-run homer to former Ole Miss player Mike Rosamond in the seventh. It was a nice night for the Ole Miss Alumni Association. Steve Dillard also played for the Rebels before his big-league career with the Red Sox, Tigers, Cubs and White Sox. His father, Tim said, has had an impact on him "my whole life. Most kids were watching cartoons. We were playing baseball. I loved baseball. We had a Little League field in the backyard. "It was one thing every day, ground balls, pop-ups, catching, hitting.'' Dillard's versatility as a hitter and pitcher came from his dad, too. "He always said, the fastest way to get to the big leagues was as a switch-hitting catcher.'' The night's irony: the last batter Dillard faced was Braves' catching uber-prospect Jarrod Saltalamacchia, a switch-hitter. Dillard struck him out.

Nothing against Huntsville's Corey Thurman, who's hardly ancient at 27 and has 83 big league innings under his belt, but how about that Daily Menu? Jackson, Eveland, Gallardo and Inman -- nice!

David Weiser's www.starsboxscore.com/ TWICE AS NICELast year, our Huntsville Stars didn't win their 2nd game until the 9th game of the season. This year, they're off to a 2-0 start, thanks to a two-run 1st inning homer by Drew Anderson and some very impressive pitching in Tim Dillard's debut........ The back-to-back victories by the same score to open the season is an anomaly that has never happened before in the first two games of a season, otherwise it's not so uncommon. Last year, the Stars beat Mobile, 14-3 on back-to-back days, June 23-24........ Also for the first time since 2000, the Stars have put up home runs in their first two games of the season. Dillard retired the first nine hitters he faced before Gregor Blanco, who hit three triples against the Stars last year, doubled to right. With one out, he walked his only batter, Yunel Escobar and for the only time in the game, Dillard had two runners on base to worry about. But he got Jarrod Saltalamacchia to fly out to right and Matt Esquivel to force out Escobar. Dillard then proceeded to retire the M'Braves in order in the 5th and 6th innings. After allowing Escobar to line a single to center field in the 7th, he struck out Saltalamacchia and was gone, leaving it to Stephen Bray........ After getting the 2nd out of the inning, Bray served up a home run that went into the Stars bullpen, shaving the Stars' lead in half. Bray was never in serious trouble after that and Joe Winkelsas got Dax Norris to ground out with runners on first and second to end the game........ Pitching against the Stars in the 9th was former Mobile Bay Bear closer and SL All-Star Brad Baker, who saved 30 games in 2004 and logged a 1.57 ERA. Corey Thurman is scheduled to start tomorrow night against Brady Endl, who was supposed to face Dillard tonight, but fell ill instead. ***New Atlanta Brave Ken Ray pitched two scoreless innings Thursday night in his return to the big leagues, throwing 18 pitches, 12 for strikes. He struck out the first batter he faced -- Barry Bonds.

Just when it seemed the Shorebirds and Power would play all night, Marconi stroked a two-out, opposite-field shot onto the right-center field concourse for a two-run homer in the 10th inning and a 3-1 Delmarva victory Friday night at Appalachian Power Park. The game, which was scheduled to begin at 7:05 p.m., ended at 11:52 p.m. The evening started with a 40-minute rain delay that followed a forecast of severe thunderstorms. Flashes of lightning accompanied by more showers forced a 58-minute stoppage in the top of the eighth and another shower interrupted play with two out in the bottom of the ninth and the score tied 1-1. The game ended in a sprinkle. The Power?s second game of the season drew a paid crowd of 2,561, which included about 1,000 no-shows. By game?s end, fewer than 50 remained. The Power, who defeated the Shorebirds 4-1 in Thursday?s season opener, posed a modest threat in the ninth. Kenny Holmberg singled with one out and took second on an infield out, but Ryan Crew?s infield out ended the inning. Some daring base-running by Holmberg produced the Power?s only run. After singling and eventually reaching third base with one out in the seventh, Holmberg saw a chance to score, albeit a risky one, when Ned Yost lofted a high pop toward the Delmarva bullpen 50 feet behind third. When Shorebird shortstop Stuart Musslewhite made the catch running toward the grandstand, Holmberg darted toward the plate, catching Musslewhite unaware. He scored easily, beating the throw that arrived five on the first-base side. Delmarva?s other run came on Ryan Finan?s second-inning homer that cleared Morris Street in right center. The Power and Shorebirds will play Saturday night and close out the series with an afternoon game Sunday.

West Virginia Site Game Summary: SHOREBIRDS ENDURE THREE RAIN DEALYS TO BEAT THE POWER The rain came and went several times throughout the course of Friday night?s game between the Delmarva Shorebirds and West Virginia Power at Appalachian Power Park. It was Rob Marconi?s two-run homer in the top of the ninth inning that finally sealed the fate for the Power in a 3-1 Delmarva victory. Ryan Finan hit a solo home run in the top of the second inning to snap the scoreless tie. The Power tied the game at 1-1 in the bottom of the seventh inning when Kenny Holmberg scored on Ned Yost?s sacrifice fly. The game remained tied until Rob Marconi hit a two-run homer in the top of the tenth inning to give Delmarva the lead for good. Josh Potter (1-0) earned the victory, Jim Hoey (1) earned the save and Rafael Lluberes (0-1) obtained the loss. The Power fall to 1-1 with the loss and the Shorebirds improve to 1-1 with the win. The Power will continue the series with the Shorebirds on Saturday night at Appalachian Power Park. Right hander Will Inman will start for the Power and Delmarva will counter with right-hander Chorye Spoone. The first pitch is scheduled for 7:05 PM (6:05 Central).

Brevard County Game Summary from the Daytona Site: Big Blast Lifts Brevard Over Daytona Parejo grand slam caps comeback [DAYTONA BEACH, FL] Freddy Parejo hit a grand slam in the top of the seventh inning to help Brevard County (2-0) comeback from a 3-0 deficit to defeat the Cubs 7-3 at Jackie Robinson Ballpark. For six innings Daytona was in control and had everyting going in its favor. The Cubs (0-2) jumped out to an early lead in the bottom of the second off of Manatee starter Mark Rogers. Matt Craig started the inning with a leadoff walk. Issmael Salas followed with a single to left putting runners at first and second. Salas was picked off at first by Rogers; however, the Brevard pitcher uncorked a wild pitch, allowing Craig to advance to third. Joe Simokaitis continued his clutch play with an RBI single to center to give the Cubs the early 1-0 lead. After a Nate Spears walk, Sam Fuld singled to center as well scoring Simokaitis and giving Daytona a 2-0 cushion. The Cubs would add to their lead in the fourth. Rogers once again issued a leadoff walk, this time to Simokaitis. Nate Spears got his first base hit as a member of the Cubs organization, a single to left, to put runners at first and second. After a Fuld sacrifice bunt, the Manatees brought in David Johnson from the bullpen. The first batter he faced, Jemel Spearman, lifted a fly ball to deep center scoring Simokaitis on the play, and Daytona had a solid 3-0 lead. The offense was more than enough for the 2006 Chicago Cubs Minor League Pitcher of the Year Sean Gallagher. He scattered five hits over six strong shutout innings stiking out eight while only walking one. In two career starts for Daytona, both against Brevard County, Gallagher has allowed just one run in 11 innings of work striking out 15 batters. The game changed as soon as Gallagher was taken out before the start of the seventh. Carlos Perez (0-1) struggled as he allowed back-to-back hits to Hernan Iribarren and Steve Sollmann to start the inning. A walk to Travis Ezi loaded the bases for Parejo who crushed a 2-1 fastball to left center field to give the Manatees the lead for the first time. Brevard County would add three runs in the top of the eighth off of Jon Hunton to ice the game and give the Manatees a 7-3 win. Johnson (1-0) picked up the win in relief after throwing two-plus innings of scoreless ball. Game three of the series will be tomorrow night as former Cubs first round pick Luke Hagerty is scheduled to face Yovani Gallardo.

Huntsville Site Game Summary: www.huntsvillestars.com/n...newsId=776 Dillard Does It All in Stars Win Tim Dillard worked 6 1/3 strong innings, and chipped in with a run-scoring single, in Huntsville?s 4-2 win over the Braves Friday night at Trustmark Park. The Stars have taken the first two games of the season-opening five-game set in Mississippi. Callix Crabbe started the game with a single, moved to second base on a wild pitch and scored when Drew Anderson belted the next pitch off of former big leaguer Dave Coggin for a home run to right field. Crabbe has reached and scored in the first inning of the first two games. Huntsville added a run in the fourth to make it 3-0 when Jeff Eure doubled with one out, moved to third on a fly ball out and scored on a swinging bunt base hit by Dillard, who picked up his first hit as a professional in his second at-bat. The Huntsville right-hander retired the first nine hitters he faced in his double-A debut before Gregor Blanco led off the home fourth with a double. Yunel Escobar walked with one out but Dillard worked out of trouble by retiring Jarrod Saltalamacchia on a fly ball and getting Matt Esquivel to bounce into a fielder?s choice. The visitors made it 4-0 in the sixth when Eure singled with two outs and scored on a double by Ozzie Chavez, who picked up his first hit of the year. Eure has reached base five times and scored four times in the first two games. Dillard retired the side in order in the fifth and sixth innings and was lifted with one out and a runner at first in the seventh. Steve Bray retired Esquivel for the second out but then surrendered a home run to Mike Rosamond that cut the lead in half. Dillard was charged with one run on two hits and struck out five to grab the win. ?My confidence came with the defensive play behind me. I know that they will make the plays and that allows me to throw the pitches I want to throw,? said Dillard. ?He picked up where he left off last year, a different league in a different stadium is all. He changes speed well and knows how to pitch, which makes my job enjoyable. He?s a great student and will take information and use it,? said pitching Rich Sauveur. Joe Winkelsas, who pitched in only four games due to injury last season, earned the save with a scoreless ninth inning. He allowed a wind-aided infield, pop-up to Esquivel and a slow rolling single up the third base line to Rosamond with two outs before retiring pinch-hitter Dax Norris on a comebacker to end the game. Corey Thurman takes the mound for the Stars Saturday night and will be opposed by Braves? left-hander Brady Endl. Coverage of the game begins at 6:50 and can be heard on ESPN Radio 1450 AM locally and via the internet at www.huntsvillestars.com.

Nashville Site Game Summary: Link for Ben Hendrickson photo, text follows: www.nashvillesounds.com/n...ewsId=1890 Sounds Blow Late Lead, Drop Opener 5-3 OMAHA ? The Nashville bullpen failed to protect a late lead, allowing five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning, as the Sounds suffered a heartbreaking 5-3 loss to the division-rival Omaha Royals in their 2006 season opener on Friday evening at Rosenblatt Stadium. The late Omaha comeback ruined an outstanding outing by Nashville starter Ben Hendrickson, who did not allow a hit over five scoreless innings before being removed due to a pitch count limitation. The 25-year-old, who was left with a no-decision for his effort, walked three and struck out five batters, allowing only two runners to reach second base. The Sounds jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the top of the third inning. Second baseman Jermaine Clark recorded the first Nashville hit of 2006 when he led off the frame with a single to center off Omaha starter Bobby Keppel. Catcher Mark Johnson followed with a walk and Enrique Cruz moved both runners up a base with a sacrifice bunt. Tony Gwynn plated the first run of the season and gave Nashville a 1-0 lead with a sacrifice fly to center that brought in Clark. Following a Dave Krynzel walk, Vinny Rottino celebrated his 26th birthday with an RBI single to left to double the Sounds? advantage to 2-0. Nelson Cruz upped the Nashville lead to 3-0 in the sixth with a one-out RBI single up the middle off Keppel that brought home Krynzel, who had singled and stolen second to open the frame. Omaha finally recorded a hit in the bottom of the sixth when Kerry Robinson singled off Sounds reliever Jason Kershner, who worked two scoreless frames behind Hendrickson. The Royals, who had been held to one hit through the first seven innings, broke through in the bottom of the eighth against the Nashville bullpen, plating five unearned runs during a two-out rally to take a 5-3 lead. With one out, Omaha loaded the bases against Sounds reliever Allan Simpson on a Mike Aviles fielder?s choice, Andres Blanco single, and a fielding error by shortstop Enrique Cruz on a grounder by Robinson. Ruben Gotay followed with a sacrifice fly to center to bring in Aviles with the Royals? first run of the contest. After Aaron Guiel drew a walk to re-load the bags, Omaha cleanup hitter Chad Allen chased Simpson with a game-tying, two-run single to left. Mike Adams relieved Simpson and didn?t fare much better, surrendering a go-ahead two-run double to Chip Ambres on his second pitch. Omaha closer Joel Peralta stifled the Sounds? offense in the ninth to earn his first save of the year. Joe Nelson (1-0) picked up the win as the beneficiary of the Omaha comeback after striking out the side in his lone inning of work. Simpson (0-1), who was charged with five unearned runs in his two-thirds of an inning, took the loss after blowing the save. The Sounds and Royals will play a 4:05 p.m. CT doubleheader on Saturday evening to make up Thursday evening?s postponed season opener. A pair of southpaws take the hill for Nashville. Zach Jackson, who was acquired from the Toronto Blue Jays in the off-season, makes his Brewers organization debut in the opener for the Sounds and will face Royals left-hander J.P. Howell. Dana Eveland will make his Sounds debut in the nightcap when he squares off against Omaha right-hander Kyle Snyder.
