Guzman breezes through the first on 11 pitches. 1 K.

 

Pie is 0-1 with a flyout to left.

 

By the way, it's 87 degrees at gametime. Yeesh.

 

It supposed to get warmer this weekend. :wink:

[Jon]

I may or may not have edited in that first K.

 

1-2-3 3rd inning for Guzman and 2 more Ks. He's got 5. 42 pitches through 3.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Jeff Deardorff with a solo HR to left center to tie it up at 1.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Two batters after the Deardorff HR, Buck Coats doubles, Soto is intentionally walked and Angel Guzman lines out and is robbed of an RBI. It's 1-1 in the middle of the 4th.

 

WT is up 3-1 in the top of the 8th. Baez goes 5 and gives up 1 earned, Piggy has followed with 2 shutout innings. EPatt is 3 for 3.

 

Palm Beach is up 3-2 on Daytona in the 6th. Holliman went 4 and gave up 2 (with 5 walks). Weber has followed and is struggling.

 

Peoria is up 3-1 in the 6th. Yepez went 5 and gave up 1 earned. Layden is now relieving Yepez. Norwood (3 for 3, 2 RBI) and Garcia (2 for 2) are having a good game.

[rawaction]

Man, we better keep an eye on Yepez. Strong start for him.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Guzman's 4th inning:

 

Gordon (PH for Rodriguez) lines a single to RF.

Scott flies out to deep RF on a full count (wind-aided in staying in the park). 1 out.

Huffman gets out somehow, 2 out. My bad, I'm sandbagging my garage at the same time as giving PBP.

Conrad up to bat. Gordon caught stealing, great throw by Soto, great tag by Theriot.

 

Guzman: 4 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 5/0

I'm a big fan. I love guys with huge groundball tendencies.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Pie leads off the 5th:

 

Takes ball 1 down low.

Lines to first base, ball deflects off the glove of Huffman who scoops it up and tags first base, 3-unassisted.

 

Felix is 0 for 3.

0 BB thats huge! Way to go Gooz!

[CaliforniaRaisin]

The I-Cubs have something cooking with 2 outs. Fontenot reached on a 2-out walk, Restovich reaches on an error. Deardorff singles up the middle, Fontenot scores and Restovich advanced to third on a throwing error. After a pitching change, McGehee gets out somehow (again, the sandbagging because of the rain - sorry).

 

I-Cubs up 2-1 in the middle of the 5th.

Pie takes ball 3 high and outside.

Pie takes ball 4 inside, bases on balls. Runners at first and second for Ryan Theriot.

Peoria wins 6-4!

 

Daytona loses 9-4.

 

Jaxx blow a 4 run lead in the 9th and are in extras.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Despite not giving up a walk, Guzman had 8 three-ball counts. He was inconsistent with his breaking ball, he's still is rusty.

 

Brownlie is struggling. The bases are now loaded.
