  1. Well ... good luck seeing the game. Gallagher will be pitching tomorrow (if it's not rained out!). Chiefs lose 4-3, the Cougars' winning run an unearned run on an error by Simokaitis.
  2. Good to hear, DJaxx! :D A solo shot by Javier Herrera puts the Cougars up 3-2. Bottom of the 6th - Eric Patterson walks in a 10-pitch AB (first walk was a 9-pitch effort), steals 2B and advances to third on a wild pitch. One out. Jesse Schmidt get the sac-fly. 3-3 in the bottom of the 6th.
  3. A broken bat single followed by a HR by David Castillo ties the KaneCo - Peoria game at 2 in the 5th. 8th HR of the year allowed by Estrada. Castillo sat out earlier this season for his 3rd minor league steroids policy violation. Other than the HR, a line out and a K, Estrada has induced all groundouts.
  4. Congrats, Roast! PM me with the address so I can mail you the baseball.
  5. Wow, I tuned in after Johnson was out of the game and didn't realize they had stolen 6 bases against him. 5 hits, 4BBs, 6 SBs in 5 innings = only 2 runs, 1 earned. I *know* I remember people posting before that they thought they were sitting near his mother at games based on her behavior while he was pitching.
  6. There's some more discussion of Wood's latest performance in the 8/2 minor league games thread. (Regular Link).
  7. Chiefs lose 7-3. Kane County is up 10-3 in the season series and have won 7 straight vs Peoria. :x
  8. Guesstimating requires more skill.
  9. They had a direct link up for yesterday's game as well. Is there anyway to measure -- or even guesstimate -- internet broadcast audiences?
  10. D'oh, Harvey didn't score on that. It was Aaron Smith (yay!). I'm still sleeeepy; that's my excuse. Leadoff triple by Schmidt in the bottom of the 9th! ETA: Uhhhh, make that the bottom of the 8th! This is NOT my day for PBP. :oops: Sorry. 6-3 Chiefs to the 9th now. Sellout crowd tonight in Peoria.
  11. Great at-bat by Eric Patterson = RBI double, scoring Harvey Stops EPat's 0-14 stint. 6-2 Chiefs to the 9th
  12. Javier Herrera was on first. (all the other baserunners that inning had already scored :cry: )
  13. Wood pitching exclusively out of the stretch Pineda 0-1 slider 87 0-2 in at knees looking 1-2 slider in dirt, bounces in dirt 1-2 fouled at plate K beautiful slider, called strike 3 Leslie 1-0 upstairs, ball, 98mph fastball 1-1 swing at fastball 1-2 98mph at knees K swing, miss, 96mph Padron 0-1 called popped up to EPat, only ball hit in play vs Wood Per Nathan, only 3 balls thrown this outing by Wood. He steamrolled them. :D
  14. Bottom of the 6th in Peoria, Kane County winning 6-1. Kerry Wood K'd the only batter he faced in the top in the 6th, and it sounds like he'll start the 7th. Another solid effort from Grant Johnson: 5IPs, 5 hits, 2R, 1ER, 3Ks/4BBs.
  15. Three triples by the AZL Cubs (and one by the AZL Angels)!
  16. Realizing that RBI totals are a dangerous criterion, it's worth noting that Harvey is now 2nd in the Midwest League in RBIs and has 60-some fewer ABs than the league leader.
  17. Obviously NOT (a coincidence)!
  18. Grant Johnson going for a third consecutive solid start. 7/28 SP G. Johnson 6 scoreless, 2 H, 8/1 7/21 SP G. Johnson 5.2 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 4/2
  19. 20th round draft pick!
  20. No prob, that happens a lot in August.
  21. Sweet game. Looks like Fuld is still hurting, since he wasn't in the lineup again tonight.
  22. Excellent! Thanks for the report (especially on the velocity!). Maybe that's a game I can finally go to.
  23. Go Pinto! Billek has the rep of throwing strikes -- and he has been present for the last 2 triple-plays in the Cubs organization. It would be nice to see the Chiefs run continue. What's up with Jesus Yepez? I don't know anything about him, other than he's been pitching a lot lately.
  24. That'll be an interesting matchup.
