Former Smoky Holliman tries to bite off the hand that once fed him.

4 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 1 K, 9 GO/2 FO for cashner. i'm sure they would have stuck with him longer, but his spot came up with the smokies down 2-0 with the bases loaded and 2 outs in the 4th. cantzler pinch hit and knocked a 3-run double, smokies now up 3-2 with maestri on in the 5th.

Wow, great groundball rate for Cash.

5-2 win for Tennessee

 

Great bullpen work tonight. Maestri went one and two thirds, Cales went two and a third, and Schlitter went a perfect inning for the save. Canzler got the big 3 run double, Colvin a sack fly, Castro a hit and a walk, and Castillo a hit and 2 walks.

 

Tennessee lead the series 2 games to 1.

Maestri went one and two thirds,.

 

Alessandro had a good year at AA.

I'm looking forward to see what he can do in Iowa.

What happened to Cashner's K's? Seems like he isn't striking out as many people as before.
