August 20, 20232 yr Bush fell apart in the 6th. 4 runs, 2 HR. Curt Bloom lost track of who was hitting so it got extra frustrating.

Single on a liner to LF, strolls into second for a steal, dodges the tag to steal third on a much closer play, and then scores on a FC grounder up the 1B line by beating out the throw home. He definitely has some Javy Baez in him as far as baseball I.Q. and hitting everything hard. It'd refreshing to see a young player who is a very smart player, especially on the basepaths. Haven't seen that since Yolmer.

August 20, 20232 yr Bush had given up just one hit through 5IP...Then the 6th inning started with a HR and a single. The next "single" probably should have been at least one out, but it took a weird hop and Ramos couldn't corral it. Another HR clears the bases, Barons trail 4-2. Line looks worse than he pitched, 5IP+, 4ER (all in the 6th), 5H, 1BB, 6K.

RH The 2 HR's by Mongollon gives him 8 on the season. Badlers Tweet said 6 but that was from 2 days ago so didnt count the 2 today. 6 hours ago, DirtySox said: Badler keeping tabs too. He mentions it right here.
August 20, 20232 yr Leasure with a nice clean inning in AAA. 1 IP, 0 H, 0 BB, 2 SO. His best outing since he's been here.
August 20, 20232 yr Bush looked really solid. His fastball doesn't really pop on the gun but until that last inning it didn't seem like anyone was squaring it up. He's a big dude so I image the perceived velocity on his fastball probably plays up a bit.

August 20, 20232 yr 46 minutes ago, Quin said: He mentions it right here. Right I know he mentioned it butin case anyone that saw earlier tweet about 6 HR's and didn't notice the date on it, was aware he was up to 8 now.

TA7 is gonna be in his contract year and he's not exactly going to be welcoming to the young buck coming up to take his job. And no one will take Moncadas salary off our hands either.

August 20, 20232 yr Quero keeps things alive with a good at-bat to draw a walk, advances on a wild pitch, and then Elko sends a double to the gap in right to drive him in.
