McCarthy sounding good, gave up a couple 1st inning hits but got out of it. Chattanooga announcers absolutely TERRIBLE.

 

Jason Hill picks up the 3rd hit of the game, still in the top of the 2nd.

Play-by-play guy ripping on Jack Black and Tenacious D. What an old codger. Color guy claims he cracks him up...

I'll take your color type by type, instead of those announcers Randy, lol.

Anyway I can listen to it as my WMV is crap?

These guys remind me of the guys from the movie Revenge of the Nerds

Damn, RBI 2B for Edwin Encarnacion.

1-0.

Now they are talking about changing diapers :headshake

f***. Not a good start so far for BMac.

4-0 on a homer.

4-0 Now, not lookin good. Sounds like control problems.

1) first pitch fly-out weakly hit to shirt center

2) 3rd pitch harder-hit fly to Right-center

3) first-pitch change hit for a sinngle

4) got behind in the count on a couple close pitches, gave up a near-HR double off the left-center wall on the fly. 1-run scores

 

still 2 outs. Brandon throwing the fastball past hitters, but having trouble throwing his curve for strikes tonight.

 

5) got behind 3-1 and then intentionally walked the guy

6) 1-2 pitch hit for a HR to RF? a 3-run shot. Threw it center-cut.

7) 0-1 pitch grounded ouot to 3rd.

 

4-run inning. He's was a 1-pitch pitcher that inning

Anyone know the last time that Brandon gave up this many runs in an outing? It has been a real long time.

1) Spidale K's swinging on 2-2 breaking ball

2) Lopez walks on 3-1 pitch, 2nd walk in 2 AB's tonight.

3) Bikowski fouls off a couple 1-2 pitches before doubling into RF corner. Runners 2nd and 3rd, 1 out.

4) Maldonado lined 2-1 pitchh SF to CF, bikowski to 3rd base, Lopez scoroes, 4-1 lookouts

5) Sasser lines 3-2 pitch into LF corner. 4-2 Lookouts...

 

Lookouts pitcher already has ~75 pitches, 4 or 5 walks in 3 2/3 rds IP

 

6) McNeal strikes out on 2-2? pitch?

 

Heading to the top of the 5th, bottom third of the order due up for the Lookouts

Anyone know the last time that Brandon gave up this many runs in an outing?  It has been a real long time.

He last lost on June 5th, so that ought to give you some idea...

1) slow rolling ground-out to Pedro Lopez on 1-2 pitch, 1 out

 

Brandon's next K will be his 200th of the season.

 

2) behind in count again, 3-1 pitch popped foul, full-count strike 3 looking. 3rd K of the night to go with 1 BB. 2 outs

 

200th K of the year, thrown 61 pitches at this point. Congrats to Bmac on 200th K!

 

3) blooper over Yan's head for single

- Maldonado throws him out trying to steal 2nd. 3 outs.

 

4 IP, 4 ER, ~65 pitches, 7 H, 3 k's, 1 BB, been deep in an unusually large number of counts...

idiots now complaining about BHam traffic? LMFAO!

 

1) Lead-off walk for Barons.

 

Pitching change for Lookouts

 

2) Reyes due up. singles to LF. 1st and 2nd, no outs. Let's keep that no-loss streak alive for BMac.

 

3) Yan blows 2 bunt-attempts. 1-2 pitch misses inside, 2-2 pitch inside again, full count. hard-bunts into DP, 4-6-3

 

2 outs.

2) Maldonado K's looking on 1-2 pitch, 2 outs

3) Sasser K's looking on 1-2 pitch, 3 outs.

Campos and Charlotte win 1st game of DH, nice start, save for Santiago. I would like to see Bryant Nelson get a true shot at 2B position, walks more than he Ks, has power, can run a little bit too. http://milb.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnfor...px?GAMEID=14768

1) blanco (hit the 3-run HR) walks on a 3-1 pitch.

2) long fly-out to RCF, 1 out

How many opportunities they gonna waste tonight? White Sox Lite.

Kanny comes back but loses 9-8, 7 errors on Kanny. Valido and Schnur each with 2 hits. http://milb.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnfor...px?GAMEID=12126

McCarthy comes out for the 7th.

 

Pitchers getting squeezed a bit.

 

1) lopez handles a bouncer up the middle on a 2-2 pitch, 1 out

2) Bmac had him K'd on 0-2 pitch called a ball, goes all the way to 3-2, single up the middle hit hard.

 

BMac at 100 pitches, 1 out, runner on 1st.

 

3) BMac induces an 0-2 pitch into 4-6-3 DP, 3 ouots. BMac is done for the night:

 

7 IP, 8 H, 2 BB, 5 K's. Got squeezed early and payed for not having command of any of his offspeed pitches in the 3rd.

Pollak blows the save, Miller with decent start. http://milb.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnfor...px?GAMEID=11877

Winston-Salem loses 5-4, as Pollok blows the save and gives up 2 runs to pick up the loss in the top of the 9th.

Hey! Whose thread is this MnSoxFan?

 

Bottom 7th of the BHam/Lookouts game:

 

1) Spidale with the lead-off double!

2) Lopez up, WP sends Bikowski to 3rd, no outs. Full Count, lopez fouling off a bunch of fastballs. Foul-tip K, 1 out.

3) Bikowski? fouls out. 2 outs. Wasting ANOTHER golden opportunity

4) maldonado K's.

 

UGH!

 

Still 4-2 Lookouts.

BMac is done for the night:

 

7 IP, 8 H, 2 BB, 5 K's. Got squeezed early and payed for not having command of any of his offspeed pitches in the 3rd.

 

Good to see that he battled after the 3rd inning, but a little worrisome to see him not be able to beat people when his breaking stuff isn't working. But hey, it's one inning of a AA game after all.

 

I think we are starting to get obsessive about McCarthy. But there's not a lot to be excited about this year.

Yeah, we're getting obsessed. He was gettinng squeezed, but he left a couople too many fastballs center-cut.
