Birmingham wins 5-3..... Nice outing for Villacis w/ 0 BB and 9 K in 7 IP. Spidale two more hits, an rbi and his 21st stolen base...... Martel is a nice AA player... he's a grinder....... Stewart showed tonight why the Sox like him behind the plate so much...... Their SS, Nelson Castro who has good speed, got a good jump attempting to steal..... Stewart caught the pitch and released the ball faster than any catcher I have ever seen (including Quintero) and the throw was 6 inches off the ground, 6 inches in front of the bag to nail him easily...... It was a thing of beauty....

NO idea what the hell happened with Bristol....... I think there were some missed extra points or safeties or something..... not sure how they got to a 16-11 loss...... looking further, it is obvious that there were lots of fumbles and interceptions - 6 errors for each team.........

 

That game must have been painful to watch..... the boxscore was so painful I am not even going to link it........ if you want to know how bad they were, look it up yourself. I can't contribute to baseball that bad!

LaMura has been just awesome on relief for Bham this year. He pitched another scoreless inning of relief tonight, lowering his era to 0.84. I guess he's found his role.

 

Schnur had another hit, extending his hit streak. It sucks to see Bound go 0-4, dropping his avg. to 267 after being above .280 a couple weeks ago after a hot streak he had. Also, great game by Whisler! It's great to see him doing well. Hopefully, more starts like this are to come.

 

Lopez continues to hit for W-S; his avg. is at .285 now. Way to go Bmac on the great start! :headbang And, Pollok got his Carolina league-leading 19th save of the year. Baj and/or Smith really need to get promoted to Charlotte so Pollok can become the closer for Bham. He's shown he can close a game in high-A, so why not give a chance at AA? Lastly, screw Becker/Sasser, and get Rogo called up to Birmingham pronto, or else I'll level Toronto.

It's nice to see Lopez's average up at .285, BUT he just won't take a walk. 13 walks in 265 at bats good for an on base of .314. That's awful for a top of the lineup guy. That's why Gonzalez was batting leadoff (.381 on base). Thankfully Lopez has only struck out 19 times, but those numbers are still pretty bad.

Wow, BMac hasnt missed a beat. Also promising to see Munoz only give up 1 ER in 6 IP; needs to cut down on the walks though. I'd like to see Villacis up in Charlotte before the year is over, he's done nicely in BHam and we dont need to see Stewart and Kohlmeier over and over down there. Villacis could have a future with us, KC thought enough of him to use him once this year. I'm still kinda surprised he was just let go like that
