Might well just call this the Boise Hawks game thread.

 

Amaya 4, Bruno 9, Candelario 5, Vogelbach 3, Contreras 2, Almora 8, Hernandez 6, Batista DH, Martin 7, Scott 1

[El Duderino]

Amaya 2-run homer.

[Guest]

Yakima tied it right back at 2 in the bottom of the 3rd. Boise just untied it in the 5th (Trey Martin double, Stephen Bruno RBI single) and now lead 3-2.

[Guest]

And Heesch promptly blows the 3-2 lead in the bottom of the 5th.

 

4-3 Yakima and they're still batting.

[Guest]

Boise down 1 with runners at first and second with none out.

 

Almora squares to sacrifice. Strike swinging and Vogelbach picked off second base.

 

Small ball... :banghead:

 

Almora eventually singles. It would have tied the game.

 

And now Willson Contreras was nearly thrown out on a botched squeeze attempt by Marco Hernandez.

 

Almora advances to second base on a passed ball - Contreras holds at third.

 

Hernandez strikes out swinging. Two outs. Justin Marra coming in to pinch hit.

 

Justin Marra lines out to end the inning. Bah.

[El Duderino]

Damnit. I am going to be way too upset if the Hawks lose.

albert almora = mr. september

[El Duderino]

9 straight have reached, hahahaha.

[Guest]

Candelario with a big 2-out, 2-RBI triple in the 9th inning.

[El Duderino]

lol, dude made last out of the game at 3rd base down 6 runs.

[toonsterwu]

I can think of a couple systems where someone like Trey Martin would be one of their top CF talents, a raw guy with tools, someone to hope on. Still wonder how much power he can develop.
