Official 2016 Summer Baseball Thread

Add Hunter Martin in there too, he just doesn't have the sample size with just 12.1 IP...in his last start he went 6 IP and had 8 K's with 0 walks. He's got a 2.18 ERA through 2 starts, in both he went at least 6 innings. That would be good enough for 13th in the league if he had a few more innings.

He's getting another start tonight.

The guys in the Cape have all fared pretty well. Soto has had some bumps, but this is the largest workload he has had in a season I would think.

Yeah...I think if you have an average year in the Cape, it's a pretty good summer. I think Rodgers is having a really good summer but it's probably getting overlooked because of what Senzel did last year.

Speaking of Senzel, tonight is his first opportunity in Dayton for him to have a chance to play there. The game starts at 7 PM and I think it's on MiLB TV too.
 
Martin in a little trouble hear with a one run lead...runners on the corners after an error on 1B and a single...no outs
 
K! Nice job by Martin, could have been a lot worse, 1 run came in but it was unearned...1-1 T4...

Baseball Program Receives $1 Million Matching Gift - The University of Arizona Official Athletic Site



TUCSON, Ariz. – The University of Arizona baseball program has received a $1 million pledge from an anonymous donor as part of a matching gift challenge. The pledge comes after the Wildcats completed their 17th all-time College World Series appearance as national runners-up with 49 wins, the program’s most in 30 years.

“This is an incredible time for our baseball program and we are excited to announce this tremendous gift,” said Director of Athletics Greg Byrne. “Coach Jay Johnson, his staff and the players accomplished so much this season, and the energy and support behind the program is at an all-time high.”

“This gift is a major difference-maker for our program,” said Johnson. “It reaffirms to me how great it is to coach at Arizona where people care so much about our program and especially the student-athletes.”

The $1 million donation and additional matching gifts will directly benefit the baseball program, including renovations to Hi Corbett Field, fan amenities and other improvements for student-athletes. Arizona moved into the historic facility in 2012 and have since been one of the national leaders in attendance, including this season when the Wildcats led the Pac-12 with an average of 3,043 fans paced by a single-game high of 8,067 in May.
 
Doesn't look like any Vols will be playing in Anchorage tonight...

Beginning to think both Vasquez and Neal might be done in Forest City...

Warren did not pitch for Team USA today...
 
Leno draws 3 walks tonight and scores a run for the Blues before getting lifted...and that's about it for tonight for the Vols for July 1...

GBO!!!

GBO!!!

When I saw he was up to 2 walks I was curious if the opposing pitchers knew his batting average. Batting .188 and draws 3 walks, I think I take my chances and throw right down the middle.
