MLB Radio has an interview up with Micah. The link is on Cubs.com.

 

No chips are to be found in the clubhouse. :(

 

Good interview, though.

[Laura]

Daytona up 1-0 after two innings on a Jake Fox solo HR.

 

Gallagher with 4Ks through 3.

 

ETA: Gallagher with 5Ks through 4. Still 1-0.

[Laura]

Uh, 2nd HR of the night for Jake Fox. "That ball was ANNHILATED!"

 

Fox now leads the FSL in HRs with 7.

 

2-0 Daytona to the 5th.

Fox now leads the FSL in HRs with 7.

 

Fox has been on a tear all season :D

 

Gallagher through 4: 2 hits, 0 runs, 0 walks, 5 K's :D

[Laura]

Gallagher allows a run in the 5th on a single, wild pitch, and another single to CF that scored the runner at 2nd. The broadcasters thought the relay throw was delayed because the 3rd base coach initially told the runner to hold up ... then sent him.

 

I missed the bottom of the 5th, but it apparently went by quickly.

 

1-2-3 inning in the 6th and two more Ks making 8 so far. Looks like he'll go for the complete game (7 innings, since it's a doubleheader tonight). Sounds like he's mainly working with his fastball & curve.

[Laura]

Ugh. Lead-off single in the 7th, PB by Fox sends the runner to second, then the ball is hit off Gallagher's leg and rolls to 1B -- very close play at first but the runner is ruled safe.

 

Runners at the corner, no one out. Now Hunton coming in to replace Gallagher. :( The announcers don't seem to think he's injured, maybe just shaken up.

 

ETA: Long sac fly makes it 2-2.

 

Hunton Ks the next batter on a pitch a foot-and-a-half off the plate.

 

Hunton picks off the runner at first! 1-3-4-3-4

[Chris]

:shock:

[Laura]

1-2-3 bottom of the 7th, so the game goes to "extras" -- inning 8.

 

Gallagher:

6 innings (faced 2 batters in the 7th), 6 hits (6 singles), 2R/1ER, 8Ks/0BB, 8-2 GO-FO. ERA to 1.78. ...

 

I need to leave soon, so Daytona better score in the bottom half of this inning.

 

Danny Gonzalez PHs for Simokaitis & leads off with a double!

Nate Spears sac-bunts him to 3B.

Fuld is being IBB'd.

 

Egads, suicide squeeze fails on a very low pitch, Gonzalez out.

 

Fuld moves to 2B.

 

Spearman grounds out 4-3.

 

Tie game to the 9th.

[Chris]

Bottom of the 6th, 3-1 Jaxx

[Chris]

Nic Jackson extends the hitting streak to 21

[Chris]

4-1 Jaxx

[Chris]

FWIW the Stars are without their Manager, who was ejected in the 5th after arguing. Apparently Patterson got a double on a ball a foot foul.

 

Jaxx go up 5-1 on an infield single on the squeeze

[Laura]

Sam Fuld scores the game-winning run on a wild pitch in the bottom of the 14th.

 

Daytona wins GAME ONE 3-2!

Pie is 0-3 tonight with a walk and run scored. His current line: .260/.330/.427

[Chris]

Jaxx are all over the Stars, 9-1 lead and still batting

[Chris]

To the 9th, 9-1 Jaxx, Piggy coming out of the pen

[Chris]

"Put it in the W column!"

[CubsWin]

Gallagher is tearing High-A. Another couple outings like this one and he's got to be considered for a promotion, don't you think?

 

Isn't the FSL supposed to be a hitter's league?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Nic Jackson extends the hitting streak to 21

 

I think Nic might be a better hitter than most of the guys we have in Chicago.

[Laura]

Nice line by Chris Shaver.

The FSL is very, very strongly a pitcher's league.
