Nobody warming for the Braves

[Chris]

Thanks for the additional shout out, Ron!

[Flames24Rulz]

2 ground ball outs and a K for Marmol in the 2nd :)

[Flames24Rulz]

Hoffpauir with a 2 run shot! 8-0 Jaxx in the 2nd!

[Jon]

Nice. Go Micah!

[Flames24Rulz]

Marmol's scoreless streak of 14 2/3 innings comes to an end as Mississippi scores in the 3rd. 8-1 DJaxx.

 

Marmol 2/2 on the day at the plate though! Another double for Carlos.

[Flames24Rulz]

Hoffpauir drives in 2 more on a 2 run RBI double and he has 6 RBI's in the first 3 innings! 10-1 DJaxx :)

Man, that lineup is turning over fast.

[Flames24Rulz]

Marmol with a homer!!!

[Brian]

Marmol with a homer!!!

 

Convert him back to a catcher!! ;)

Marmol with a homer!!!

12-1 Jaxx in the bottom of the 5th. They are putting a beatdown on the Braves. Let's hope the 2nd game will be like this as well :)

 

Peoria leads Beloit 1-0 in the 1st on an RBI groundout by Dylan Johnston. The run was manufactured though on a leadoff single, a stolen base, and a sacrifice bunt before the RBI groundout.

Wonder if someone at BA will take notice now that he's dominating at AA.

 

he is dominating but daytona is high A. he should be going to AA soon i would think with perhaps marmol going to iowa. in that case, it might be the end of brownlie with the cubs.

 

I think you are jumping the gun a little. There isn't a need to move guys around yet after just the 3rd time thru the rotation. I think at the 10 start mark you may see some moves, and that's provided Marmol and Gallagher keep dominating. Gallagher was more dominant to start last year and stayed in Peoria all year. Marmol was dominant, and started 10 times in Daytona.

 

And I don't think Brownlie is just gonna be tossed aside. He will at least finish the year in the organization.

 

I wholeheartedly agree.

 

And apparently, if you're a pitcher in the Cubs organization with the name of Carlos, you can rake with the bat.

Hoffpauir 4 for 4 on the day. 12-1 Jaxx after 5. Marmol will hopefully get another chance to bat next inning.

[Chris]

How many hits are the Jaxx up to?

17 :)

[Chris]

Last week's SL Hitter of the Week (through the 16th) went 12-32 (.375) with 4 HR and 11 RBI.

 

Micah is 5 for his last 8 with 1 HR, 2 2B and 7 RBI

[Flames24Rulz]

Marmol taken out in the 6th with 1 out. What a game for Carlos, threw a good game but especially had a real good game at the plate.

[Laura]

Thanks for the game report, Vinestal!!

 

Just got home from the Daytona game. I had a blast though it was kids day and the park was full of screaming elementary kids. Every 2 innings they played the Spounge Bob square pants song and all the kids sang at the same time, it was frightening. Also they were handing out these long plastic horns, adding to the noise.

 

Heheh. The Spongebob Squarepants is also very popular at the Kane County Ballpark ... you may wake up screaming a few times before it leaves your head.

 

How many hits are the Jaxx up to?

 

17 :)

 

Mississippi is lucky it's only 7 innings today. :)

The good news: It's only 7 innings

 

The bad news: There's 7 more innings to play after this game!

It'd be especially bad news if the Jaxx got Marmol's bat back in the lineup for game 2. ;)

[Flames24Rulz]

Jaxx win Game 1!

[Transmogrified Tiger]

What's EPatt's day looking like?

[Chris]

Favorite player on the Mississippi Braves: Will Startup

[Jon]

That would be Marmol's second career HR, although the first came before he moved to the pitcher's mound.

 

And I hope he doesn't still look like a 9 year old at the plate:
