Steve Bronder in the completion of the 1st game that was suspended and Mr Veal in the 2nd game for today in Daytona.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Thanks!

[Brian]

THE DON!

[Flames24Rulz]

Iowa lost 6-2. O'Malley didn't make it out of the 5th as he allowed 10 hits, 6 runs, 3 ER's, 0 BB's, and struck out 3 in 4 and 2/3's. Clay Rapada pitched an inning and a third allowing only 1 hit, 1 walk, no runs, and struck out. Walrond pitched 2 innings of relief allowing 2 hits, 0 runs, 0 BB's, and struck out 2. Aardsma pitched the 9th, allowing 2 BB's, 0 hits, and 0 runs. Fontenot was 2/4 with an RBI. Pie and McGehee each went 1/4 with a double. Pie also had an RBI and 2 K's. Coats, Hoffpauir, and Reyes all went 1/4 and Deardorff went 1/3 with a BB.

[otis89]

Dope with an RBI single in the 1st to drive in EPatt who reached on an error, stole second, and advanced to third when Lewis reached on an error.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Daytona lost the suspended game from yesterday 6-1.

 

Daytona up 3-0 in the 6th. Veal: 5 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 9/4.

 

Peoria up 3-0 in the 8th. Atkins: 7.1 IP, 0 R, 7 H, 7/0. Back-to-back good starts from Mitch after some midseason struggles.

Veal so far: 5 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 9 K, WP

[otis89]

Veal so far: 5 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 9 K, WP

 

Not too shabby. My only complaint is 4 walks.

[otis89]

Lewis, Dopirak, Jackson, and Sing hit 4 singles in a row and Fox hits a sac fly to go up 3-0 in the bottom of the 3rd. Montgomery responds with 2 runs of their own in the top of the 4th.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Veal's night is done. Hunton gives up a hit to break up the no-no. After a walk and 3 WPs, the shutout is gone to. After 6, Daytona is up 3-1.

 

His final line: 5 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 9/4, WP, ERA down to 1.03.

Veal so far: 5 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 9 K, WP

 

Not too shabby. My only complaint is 4 walks.

 

You just can't please some people. :roll: :wink:

[Jon]

2-4 GO-FO for Veal, by the way.

[CUBZ99]

What makes Veal such a dominating pitcher? Does he have Overpowering fastball, deceptive delivery???

[Transmogrified Tiger]

It's his dashing good looks.

 

Honestly, IIRC he doesn't have one really super pitch(like Hill with his curveball), but I don't remember much else because I'm terrible at keeping that stuff straight in my mind.

[Brian]

I may be wrong but I think I recall reading that Veal has a Willis-esque delivery except not such a high leg kick.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

91-94 mph FB, plus 12-6 curve, average circle change...very deceptive delivery.

His deliever isn't as extreme as Willis', but Veal has some funk to his motion and his long arms make his pitches difficult to pick up.

 

Daytona wins it 3-1 (7 inning game), Schappert gets the save.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Peoria wins it 3-0. Avery goes 1.2 and gets the save.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

According to the postgame show, Veal is still struggling with his release point on the curve ball. His curve was moving all over the place and was a good reason for his 4 BBs and 9 Ks.

[otis89]

Veal so far: 5 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 9 K, WP

 

Not too shabby. My only complaint is 4 walks.

I didn't mean that as an actual serious complaint. I was just saying that if you had to find something negative about his outing, that was it.

[otis89]

Why was Veal taken out after 5 innings? Had he thrown a lot of pitches?

[CaliforniaRaisin]

WT is up 5-3 in the middle of the 8th. Mateo: 6 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 6 K, 2 BB, 2 HBP.

 

Boise up 4-2 in the 2nd.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Why was Veal taken out after 5 innings? Had he thrown a lot of pitches?

 

He was at his pitch count max (around 100) and it was warm and humid out in Florida (shocking, I know).
