    Iowa loses 6-4, they stranded 14 baserunners.
  2. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yup, definitely agree. Guzman still sounded rusty and had some problems with the control - especially his breaking pitches - despite not walking anyone. Hill starts tomorrow, Ryu Sunday.
  3. CaliforniaRaisin
    Theriot grounds out to end the top of the 7th inning. Iowa down 6-4.
  4. CaliforniaRaisin
    is he continuing to hit? Last I saw he was off to a good start. He's at .333/.390/.611/1.001. He was at .258/.314/.484/.798 going into the game. Pie takes ball 1 outside. Pie swings and misses, strike 1. Pie swings and misses at a pitch at the letters, strike 2. Pie takes a curve outside for ball 2. Pie fouls the pitch off to the left side, the count remains 2-2. Pie chops one foul down the first base line, the count remains 2-2. Pie grounds one foul down the first base line, the count remains 2-2. Pie lines a single to first base. The first baseman deflected the ball, gathered it and tried to throw out Felix at first (pitcher covering), but Felix beat it out. Felix is now 1 for 4. Bases juiced for Ryan Theriot.

    Soto with a basehit to RF. Deardoff scores, Coats to second. Iowa now down 6-4. Brandon Sing now pinch hitting for Brownlie. Sing takes strike one looking. Sing swings and misses, strike 2. Sing swings and misses on a pitch high and inside, striking out. Felix Pie now up with 2 on and 2 out. Pitching change!
  6. CaliforniaRaisin
    Iowa now has the bases loaded and none out in the top of the 7th. Buck Coats is up to bat. Coats grounds into a FC, 6-4. Restovich scores to make it 6-3.
  7. CaliforniaRaisin
    Well, Gordon was impressive.
  8. CaliforniaRaisin
    Aaaaaaaaaand Brownlie walks in a run. 6-2 Round Rock.
  9. CaliforniaRaisin
    Despite not giving up a walk, Guzman had 8 three-ball counts. He was inconsistent with his breaking ball, he's still is rusty. Brownlie is struggling. The bases are now loaded.
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    Guzman's 6th: Gordon with a leadoff double. On a full count, Scott strikes out looking. On a 3-1 count, Huffman singles. Gordon scores. Guzman is done: 5.1 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 4 ER, 8/0, 103 pitches. Bobbie Brownlie is now coming in. Round Rock leads it 5-2.
  11. CaliforniaRaisin
    Thank you.
  12. CaliforniaRaisin
    With 1 out, Geovany Soto singles and Gooz follows with a sac bunt. Pie is now up: Pie takes ball 1. Pie takes ball 2 low and inside. Pie takes ball 3 high and outside. Pie takes strike 1 on the outside corner. Pie takes ball 4 inside, bases on balls. Runners at first and second for Ryan Theriot. Felix is now 0 for 3 with a walk. Theriot then walks to load the bases. Fontenot then strikes out looking. :(

    You should use your best relievers in your most critical situations. Using Williamson as he was used today was well done by Baker, in my opinion. The question is, was it intentional? I don't think Dusty views Williamson as being ahead of Howry.

    Jinxer. :x

    Guzman's 5th: On a 2-2 count, Conrad grounds out, 6-3. One out. On an 0-1 count, Giminez lines a single to RF. On a full count, Joe McEwing singles to shortstop. On a full count, Garcia strikes out swinging on a 92 mph FB. Two outs. On a 1-2 count, Alan Zinter hits a pinch-hit 3-run HR. 4-2 Round Rock leads it. Jimerson strikes out on 3 pitches. Guzman: 5 IP, 3 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 7/0, 86 pitches West Tenn now leads 6-2 in the bottom of the 9th. Montanez and EPatt are 3 for 4 (and Luis got 2 XBHs!). Daytona now down 4-2 after 7. Weber has given up 2 ER in 3 innings of relief. Peoria up 3-1 in the middle of the 7th. Layden with 2 perfect innings in relief.
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    He does have four full counts so far.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Over Gooz?? Yeah, Aardsma would be a reliever. I want Gooz starting, not relieving. I mean if you send Weurtz down, who would you rather have called up first. I knew he was a reliever. I don't want Gooz relieving in the big leagues. If Wuertz goes down, I am assuming the Cubs will want a reliever, so I'd promote Aardsma. If the Cubs send Rusch to the pen (ha!), then I'd promote Gooz or Hill to the rotation (I'd go with Hill first, since I think Gooz needs some more innings to build up arm strength and shake off some rust).

    The I-Cubs have something cooking with 2 outs. Fontenot reached on a 2-out walk, Restovich reaches on an error. Deardorff singles up the middle, Fontenot scores and Restovich advanced to third on a throwing error. After a pitching change, McGehee gets out somehow (again, the sandbagging because of the rain - sorry). I-Cubs up 2-1 in the middle of the 5th.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    I still would like to see Aardsma promoted (if he gets regular pitching time).
  21. CaliforniaRaisin
    FREE AARDSMA!
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Pie leads off the 5th: Takes ball 1 down low. Lines to first base, ball deflects off the glove of Huffman who scoops it up and tags first base, 3-unassisted. Felix is 0 for 3.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    I'm a big fan. I love guys with huge groundball tendencies.
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    Thanks, Wuertz. :x

    Guzman's 4th inning: Gordon (PH for Rodriguez) lines a single to RF. Scott flies out to deep RF on a full count (wind-aided in staying in the park). 1 out. Huffman gets out somehow, 2 out. My bad, I'm sandbagging my garage at the same time as giving PBP. Conrad up to bat. Gordon caught stealing, great throw by Soto, great tag by Theriot. Guzman: 4 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 5/0
