Ramos walkoff HR! Completes a (technically) undefeated day for the org.

Smiling through it all, of course. I love this man.

2 out RBI double liner in the gap for Gonzalez.

M-ACE-son Adams continues to do good things in Kanny. 6IP, 1ER despite not having his strikeout stuff today (4H, 3BB, 2K).

3IP scoreless for Johan Domínguez in his return to Charlotte. Just one hit allowed.

Carela has been very solid. A solo shot, and a little defensive misplay that led to a run, but mostly cruising otherwise. 6IP, 2R (1ER), 6H, 5K on an efficient 75 pitches. Interested to see if he comes out for the 7th.

Can't imagine that fanbase taking it easy on a guy who has managed only 27IP of 7.33 ERA ball this season on that contract. Hope he's alright.

Juan Carela (NYY return for Middleton) going for WS, Eder for Birmingham.

Sosa ? in Charlotte game 2.

Bush being let down by his defense again. Gets a routine DP grounder to end the 2nd inning, but Popeye's toss pulls Montgomery off the bag and both runners are safe. Two batters later, a misplayed bloop to right scores them both. He ultimately settled in for 5IP, 3R, (1ER), 4H, 3BB, 3K. Faced the minimum over his last 3IP, and I thought he could have come out for the 6th personally.

Montgomery just had a HBP glance off his helmet, but seems okay. Smiling and staying in after a quick trainer check.

Schultz did in fact come back out for the 4th. Struck out the side. He finishes at 4IP, 1H, 2BB, 8K (career high) on 68 pitches.

Birthday boy Schultz around 95-96. Slider and changeup looking nice today. 52 pitch count through 3 (0R, 1H, 2BB, 5K), so he might be back out. Targets were 60 pitches/4IP. Leadoff walk got to 3rd with no outs on a steal and throwing error, but was stranded by a couple strikeouts and a close play at first on a bobbled grounder with Schultz covering.

Perez pulled for Lee after one AB. Maybe coming back up? I guess they may have just wanted him catching Patino, who was relieved in the next half inning.

From BA, on Batista: And Martinez:

Reyes continues to right the ship in DSL with 4IP scoreless on 2H, 1BB, 7K today. He piggybacked Denny Lima, who pitched 5IP, 1ER, 2H, 1BB, 1K. Lima was only a $10K signing, but he's been pitching pretty well.

Montgomery not in the lineup. Ramos just missed a 3 run shot.

DJ with another homer.

Should be Sunday.

Other than a solo shot, McCollough looks good today. 5Ks through 3IP, and the homer is the only baserunner allowed.

Barons will be shifting to a 6 man rotation to accommodate the new arms. Bush and Eder pitch Sat/Sun. Trash Pandas wave the white flag with a position player on the mound for bottom 8, so the Barons should finally get a win. Just for good measure though, Colson reaches base for a sixth time on a HBP.

Lol, Colson just refuses to make an out tonight. 3-3 with 2BB, HR, 2B, 3RBI and 3 runs scored.

This Birmingham game has been quite the watch. Barons leading 11-10 in a seesaw affair with still 3 more to play.

I mean... https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/mlb/miami-marlins/article277008218.html Or we can just make things up to fit our existing narratives, I guess ?‍♀️

3-0 swinging HR by Popeye for the lead Montgomery works his way to a walk from an 0-2 count.
