KS has a long way to go when it comes to walks. He must be averaging one per inning this summer.
 
Andrew Lee went 0/4 today...BA .308

AJ Simcox was 1/4 with an RBI...BA .247

David Houser is batting .152

Vincent Jackson is batting .262

Drake Owenby hasn't given up a run in his last two outings, his ERA is 2.70, lowest this summer.

Christin Stewart is batting .391 for Team USA...next stop...Cuba.


Andrew Plunkett went 1/2 yesterday with an RBI. He's batting .284, the best this summer for him.

Forrest Bramlett is batting .216

Derek Lance went 3/4 tonight with a double and 2 RBI...it's his third 3 hit game in 4 days...He's batting .330, a summer high.

Trevor Charpie had one of his worst outings of the summer Saturday night. 1 IP, 4 R, 4 ER, 5 H, 1 BB, 2 SO...his ERA is 5.93

Eric Freeman went 3 IP, 3 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 3 SO in his longest outing of the summer. He came on in the Bottom of the 4th, gave up a run off two hits. Then he went two shut-out innings before coming out in the bottom of the 7th and walking the first two batters. He was replaced, but both of those walks would score. Really not a bad outing. His ERA rose to 4.26...

That's the East/Midwest guys, I'll update the Alaska/West coast guys later tonight...

Bret Marks is getting the start for the Bucs tonight. 10 PM... Listen Here: Authorized Stream

Peter Lenstrohm does get into game 2...

Final line: 2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 SO, his ERA is 3.52 after tonight's game.

Both his and Marks' good outings get wasted, the Bucs lose two one run games...
 
Not a lot to report so far this evening. The only Vol to get a hit so far today was Plunkett, he went 1/4.
 
Eric Martin came on tonight, top 9 to close out the game for Bethesda. He faced 4 batters, gave up a 1 out full count walk, but other than that, no mistakes. Final line: 1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 1 BB, 0 SO...
 
Top 3rd, JYB leads off the inning for the Bucs with a double! Thank Goodness!

Maybe he can be a set up man or close. We need a few relievers to step up.
 
I got caught by surprise... Serrano is on in relief...Runners at 1 and 2, 1 out, Top of the first, Miners already down 5-0, in the second game of a double header...

KS, 1-0, 2-0, 2-1, 3-1, grounder to Rodgers and THEY TURN TWO! well done!
