Monday’s News & Notes

May 9, 2022
Team Yesterday Today Pitching Probables
Rochester Won, 2-1 OFF DAY N/A
Harrisburg Lost, 4-0; Lost, 2-1 OFF DAY N/A
Wilmington Won, 6-5; Lost, 2-1 OFF DAY N/A
Fredericksburg Won, 6-1; Won, 6-5 OFF DAY N/A

Rochester 2 Scranton/Wilkes-Barre 1
• Je. Rodrgiuez 2⅔ IP, 2H, R, ER, 3BB, 2K, 2HBP, WP, 75-39 PIT-K
• Braymer (W, 2-1) 2⅓ IP, 0H, 0R, 2BB, 3K, 2-0 IR-S
• Edwards (SV, 3) 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 1K
• Stevenson 2-3, SF, RBI
• Meneses 2-4

Rochester emptied its ‘pen again as five pitchers limited Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to three hits in a 2-1 win – the third straight for the Red Wings. Jefry Rodriguez reverted to the mean, as he did not make it out of the 3rd. He allowed the lone RailRiders run on two hits, three walks, and two hit batsmen over two and 2/3rds innings. Ben Braymer stranded two while closing out the 3rd and added two goose eggs to pick up the win. Francisco Perez (2IP), Jordan Weems (1IP), and Carl Edwards Jr. combined for four scoreless to nail it down. Tres Barrera scored both Rochester runs, with Andrew Stevenson hitting a 3rd-inning sac fly and Luis García driving in the go-ahead run in the 5th.

Bowie 4 Harrisburg 0 – GAME ONE
• E. Lee (L, 0-1) 5IP, 2H, R, ER, 2BB, 8K
• Cluff 0-1, BB
• Gushue 0-2, BB

The Senators were no-hit in the opener by two BaySox pitchers for a 4-0 loss. Evan Lee matched his last outing with five innings of one-run ball on two hits. He walked two and struck out a season-high of eight. Taylor Gushue and Jackson Cluff were the only two batters to reach base for Harrisburg, each drawing a walk.

Bowie 2 Harrisburg 1 – GAME TWO
• Fuentes 4IP, 3H, R, ER, BB, 0K, 2HBP, WP
• B. González (L, 0-1) ⅓ IP, 3H, R, ER, 0BB, 0K, HR
• W. Garcia 2-3
• G. Lara 2-3

In the second game, the Senators continued to flail until the top of the 6th when K.J. Harrison drove in Jake Alu to tie the game at 1-1. The BaySox got that run right back on a homer to lead off the bottom half of the inning, which hung the “L” on Brian González. Steven Fuentes went the first four innings, allowing a run on three hits and two Victor Robles (nos. 3 and 4 in 25IP this season). He walked one and struck out none. Wilson Garcia and Gilbert Lara both went 2-for-3 while Jack Dunn accounted for the fifth of five Harrisburg hits. The Senators were just 1-for-8 with RISP and left on eight baserunners.

Wilmington 6 Bowling Green 5 – GAME ONE
• Cate ⅔ IP, 2H, 3R, 1ER, 2BB, 2K, WP, 36-24 PIT-K
• Kirian 2⅓ IP, 3H, 0R, 0BB, 3K, 2-0 IR-S
• Yankosky (BS, 3) 2IP, 3H, 1R, 1ER, 0BB, 1K
• Brzykcy (W, 4-0) 2IP, 1H, 1R, 0ER, BB, 3K
• Pineda 3-4, R, HR, 4RBI
• Daily 2-3, RBI
• Méndez 2-4, 2R, SB

Wilmington and Bowling Green tussled into extras with the Blue Rocks emerging with a 6-5 win in nine innings. Tim Cate was lifted after 36 pitches, having retired just two of seven batters faced. He let in a run on two hits, two walks, and struck out two. Tyler Yankosky blew his third save in a row, allowing a run on three hits over the final two innings of regulation. Conversely, Zach Brzykcy won for the third straight appearance, letting in the free runner in the 8th on a leadoff double and issuing a two-out walk before retiring the side in order in the 9th. Israel Pineda drove in three of the first four Blue Rocks runs on an RBI single and a two-run HR while Cole Daily drove in the gamewinner with his second single to lead the Wilmington offense

Bowling Green 2 Wilmington 1 – GAME TWO
• Shuman 6IP, 4H, 0R, 0BB, 5K
• M. Peña (L, 0-1) 1⅔ IP, 4H, 2R, ER, 0BB, 1K
• Ydens 2-3, 2B, SB
• Daily 1-2, 2BB, SB

In the second game, the two teams matched zeroes through regulation until the Hot Rods got two in the 8th. The Blue Rocks could only get one back for a 2-1 loss that split the doubleheader. Seth Shuman notched his second quality start with six scoreless innings, allowing four hits, no walks, and striking out five. The loss went to Malvin Peña, who gave up both Bowling Green runs on four hits over an inning and 2/3rds. Jeremy Ydens led the Wilmington hit column with a single and a double while Cole Daily drew two of the Blue Rocks’ three walks.

Fredericksburg 6 Lynchburg 1 – GAME ONE
• Collins (W, 2-0) 5IP, 2H, R, ER, 2BB, 5K, HR
• Ferrer (H, 2) 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• Williams 3-4, 2R, 2B, RBI
• Boisserie 2-3, R, 2B, BB, RBI
• De La Rosa 2-4, R, 3B, RBI

Fredericksburg took the opener with three RBI doubles and two RBI singles for a 6-1 win. Brendan Collins tossed five innings of one-run ball on two hits and two walks. He struck out five while picking up his second “W.” Steven Williams, Branden Boisserie, and Sammy Infante combined six hits, including an RBI double apiece in the FredNats’ 11-hit parade.

Fredericksburg 6 Lynchburg 5
• A. Lara 3IP, 3H, R, ER, 3BB, 2K, 64-34 PIT-K
• Seijas (BS, 2) 1⅔ IP, 5H, 4R, 4ER, BB, 0K, HR
• Threadgill (W, 3-0) 1⅓ IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 0K, 1-0 IR-S
• V. Peña 2-2, 2R, HR, 2RBI
• De La Rosa 1-3, R, HR, 2RBI
• Arias 1-3, 3B, RBI

The FredNats blew leads of 1-0, 2-1, and 5-3 before Viandel Peña’s solo shot in the 7th put them up for good, 6-5 to sweep the doubleheader. Andry Lara struggled with his command, walking in the lone run he allowed while giving up three hits and striking out two over three innings. Karlo Seijas blew the save for the second straight appearance, coughing up four runs on five hits over an inning and 2/3rds. The win went to Riggs Threadgill, who retired all four batters he faced and stranded the tying run in the 6th. Peña and Jeremy De La Rosa both homered and drove in two while Andry Arias tripled in one as Fredericksburg squeezed six runs out of six hits and two walks.

    Does anyone know what Brady House’s secret injury is?
    T.J. White is also hurt; hasn’t played in 5 days.

    Isreal Pineda was the man yesterday, red hot!

    Seth Shuman has quietly lowered his ERA to 3.66.

      What a difference switching the calendar to the next month can be.

      In April, Pineda came out realllllly slow, batting .204/.279/.315 (15 games). But since May 1st, he’s hit .423/.423/.654 (6 games). What’s really interesting is how oddly consistent he’s been in this period.

      Thru the first 15 games, he amassed 11 hits, of which 3 were doubles and 1 HR. In his last 6, he amassed….. 11 hits, 3 2B and 1 HR.

      1. Alou2alu says:
        May 9, 2022 at 1:51 pm

        Watson listed Pineda as a guy he was hoping took off
        Sssssh Shuman
        Like the Miles Davis standard Ssssssshhh

      Neither was lifted from their last game, which leads me to believe that it’s an off-the-field thing. White was lifted for a pinch-hitter in his penultimate game, but the MiLB.tv archive suspiciously goes dark just before the double that White fielded. However, he played all nine innings of the 5/4 game. Occam’s razor suggests he may have strained something, causing him to miss six games, came back on the 4th and then something else happened.

      House was put on the I.L. last week after playing all nine innings on the 1st. The press release was pretty curt about “no further information being available.” He appears to be eligible to next play on the 11th.

      It’s also worth repeating that both House and White are both 18 years old. ESPN has learned that young men that age often make poor decisions, so there are lots of possibilities here. Or it could be as relatively benign as one or the other or both testing positive for COVID-19. You can be fully vaccinated (and double boosted) and still be infected (and afflicted) by SARS-CoV-2.

        Thanks, Luke, for the intel.

    Here’s some leaders in the Org. Nice to see de la Rosa taking steps forward and Connell developing power. Irvin and Henry are building up innings slowly.

    OPS (> 40 AB)
    Garcia ROC 1046
    Gushue HAR 1023
    Barrera ROC 1013
    Pena FBG 1011
    De La Rosa FBG 978
    Banks ROC 961
    Meneses ROC 915
    Emiliani FBG 904
    Connell HBG 885

    ERA (20+ IP)
    Theophile FBG 1.04
    Parker WIL 2.01
    Fuentes HAR 3.24

    ERA (10-20 IP)
    Cronin HAR 0.00
    Ferrer FBG 0.00
    Irvin WIL 0.53
    Henry HAR 0.57
    Edwards ROC 0.63
    Brill HAR 0.77
    Schlabach WIL 0.82
    Brzykzy WIL 1.54
    Garrett ROC 1.84
    E. Lee HAR 1.86

    1. Will says:

      Anyone want to guess as to whom of Ferrer and Cronin will allow an earned run first?

      Follow up question, which player will get a promotion first?

      Think the odds favor Cronin, but Ferrer wasted a season of development last year, after inexplicably staying for a second excellent year in the FCL. Also, the big jump isn’t from low A to high A, but high A to AA, so there could be a quick bump for Ferrer. Both are deserving, though.

    2. Will says:
      May 9, 2022 at 12:27 pm

      I wonder how much longer the Nats will keep Edwards in Rochester?

    Also the Tommy Milone award goes to Tyler Yankoski who has faced 56 batters and not walked anyone.
