flavum Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Not a fan of the gamedays for the minors.

caulfield12 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Molina 1-2-3 first. First two balls were hit hard but right at Carlos Martinez's son in RF and at Saladino's shoestrings. Drew Garcia with a great play on a Texas Leaguer into short RF. Mostly throwing FB, sinker, curve. Velocity around 90-91-92 (hence Greg's comparisons to Zach Stewart). .296 BAA him so far this year, 2 homers allowed, 11 K's, LHB are 9/26 (.346) Saladino with a badly needed hit. 6/45, .133, 2nd double. Bunted over, Wilkins with an opposite field (he's a notorious pull hitter) single for his 11th RBI, but still hitting around just 200. Smith and Jose Martinez single, bases loaded for Jared Mitchell with 1 out (sounds familiar for Sox fans). LOL, Mitchell grounds into a tailor-made double play. 2nd inning for Molina, grounder to Saladino, nice curveball for strike 3, jams the third hitter of the inning and Justin Greene makes a nice play in the gap. 6 up, 6 down. 3rd inning, lost my feed, gave up a hit or walk but got a double play grounder and got of the inning with just 5 pitches, has faced the minimum. Yay, Mitchell's first homer, shot to RF out of the park at very deep Regents Park (over the 382 foot sign)....4-0. Best thing about it was it was lefty vs. lefty, guy for the Braves throwing 93-96 MPH tonight. Only Barons' fourth homer of the season but leading SL in XB hits. Last year, Gac (now on the M-Braves) and Wilkins his 56 homers combined. Molina labored through the top of the 4th, gave up a bad hop/spin single down the 3B line but still no runs given up through 4. Saladino with his second double of the game, this time a ball hit on the ground down the RF line past the first baseman. Nice to see some signs of life out of him. Garcia with a seeing eye single up the middle scores Saladino from 2nd. Edited April 21, 2012 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Mitchell with probably the biggest game of his career so far. First homer of the season and RBI single, 2/3, 5 RBI's and only in the bottom of the 4th. 15 RBI's already. 8-0 Barons. Charlotte struggling mightily with some dude named Johan Flande. Josh Phegley with yet another hit, double. One of the other 3 hits belongs to the light-hitting Ozzie Martinez. In W-S, Kevan Smith, Pangilanan and R. Ravelo all with multi-hit games. Ravelo's actually at .404 now. K. Walker with a double. Vance got roughed up a bit this start, but only 2 ER.

ILMOU Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Molina cruising. ERA and BAA plummeting. There's hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 One thing to remember is how big Regents Park actually is... Don't be suprised to see those ERA numbers inflated by at least 0.50 to 1 full run in Charlotte. Plus in Greene, Mitchell and Martinez, more range the defensive ability than our current major league outfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, this is a nice bounceback for NM since the 1st inning of his last start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILMOU Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Molina's night likely done. 102 pitches, 7 IP, 6 hits (4 listed as GB, 1 as a soft fly, 1 a bunt per Gameday: 1 double, 5 singles) 0 runs 1 BB, 5 SO, 9/2 GB/FO. Encouraging. Edited April 21, 2012 by Stan Bahnsen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Saladino 3/5, Garcia 3/4....Mitchell had to remind us about his issues by striking out his last two ab's. 10-0 Barons massacre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a f***ing bank, I don't even care about the misspelling. 340 down the lines, 405 to center and about 370-380 gaps. I've stood in that outfield many times and it goes on forever, expansive. Plus, the wind usually blows in from left the majority of the time, if there is any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
