Barons 4th: Retherford doubles Price singles Shelby doubles, scoring Retherford pitching change Beckham singles on a nubber past the mound, scoring Price Flowers struck out Allen struck out Viciedo pops out to 2B 6-0, top 5

Hudson is out of the game. No decision. Too bad. 7 innings, 2 hits, 1 walk, 13 k's

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 30, 2009 -> 07:57 PM) Hudson is ridiculous. I am not sure about his stuff, but his peripherals would suggest they are very good, prolly the ceiling of a 2. I heard the announcer say he was hitting 94 on the gun. This guy can't stay in this league all year. That can't happen.

Barons 3rd inning: Beckham hit a liner to LF, guy made a diving catch. Flowers singled. Allen doubled to rf (awesome he can hit lefties and run) Viciedo sac fly (RBI 10), Allen to third Cook homered 4-0 Gartrell k'd

Hudson has 11 k's in 6 innings.

Single for Shelby, double for Beckham in the LF corner. Beck did have a failed bunt attempt, but made up for it. Sac fly for Flowers. Beckham also tagged and got into third. Allen K's. Viciedo grounded out. Kanny: Hudson 5 inn, 1 hit, 1 walk, 9 k's

Here goes Dan Hudson...4 k's in 2 innings. What's up with the Sally League? Is it good pitching or bad hitting? I mean, when Ken Williams Jr is your third best hitter with a .245 average...

Yeah, I would say it would take Mark having a great stretch from ages 30-34. Maybe 90 wins during that time. A couple top 5 Cy's, another championship...in other words...probably not going to happen.

Birmingham wins 8-1.

Winston-Salem won 9-4 Johnnie Lowe 7 inn, 6 hits, 3 er, 1 bb, 5 Ks

Lucas Harrell: 7 inn, 8 hits, 1 run, 0 BB, 6 Ks Marrero--another double. Hitting .405. Shelby homered. Every Baron has a hit today.

Flowers went deep. W-S: Danks 2-4, 2B, BB, R, RBI .329 He's really having an impressive season.

Charlotte wins 9-1. W-S: Brent Morel -5th homer.

Back-to-back RBI doubles for Beckham and Flowers. Both opposite field. Single for Allen. 2-RBI double for Dayan Viciedo. Good to see him heating up. 5-0 Barons

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 29, 2009 -> 01:09 PM) Nope...the runner was picked off leaving early from first (on a steal attempt), Harrell noticed it, they had the runner caught between first and 2nd, then the runner from 3rd broke for home and they caught him in a rundown after the throw from Gordo. Ah. I misread the description.

Looks like Beckham threw a runner out at home on a 1st and 3rd steal situation. Nix 2-3, 2 BB. Wouldn't surprise me a bit if he's in Arlington on Friday night.

Carlos Torres is the anti-Marquez. 6 innings, 1 run. ERA at 1.17.

Another 3-run homer for Phillips. 9-1 Charlotte, 5th inning.

3 run homer for Andy Phillips.

Here is his opening day interview. Nothing great. http://www.cbs42.com/content/wakeup/story/...CEpOR8g96w.cspx

Charlotte- 0-0, 2nd inning. Carlos Torres on the mound. His ERA is still under 1.00. Kannapolis- Up 2-0, 6th inning. Dexter Carter putting up 0's. 6 K's. Birmingham starts at 11:35CT. Lucas Harrell starts. Winston-Salem starts soon. Johnnie Lowe starts. Facing pitcher J. Mariotti.

Kannapolis won. Leesman 3-0, 1.78. Birmingham down 2-0 top 8. Santeliz making his 2009 debut. Replaced Poreda with runners on 2nd and 3rd. Struck out two batters to get out of it. Final line for Poreda- 6.1 inn, 5 hits, 2 runs, 2 walks, 3 k's ERA at 2.01 Beckham 0-1, 2 BB
