Nick Christiani surrenders two runs in the top of the 8th. Now 8-3 Indy.
Perez OPSing over 800 in June, over 1.000 in his last 10. Five multiple hit games in his last 10 as well. Don't know if he's a SS as he moves up, but it looks like he can definitely play 2B. An almost 1:1 K:BB ratio, too.
Juan Silva's June looks awfully good too.
The youth in Dayton might need another half-season to fully blossom. Thankfully, most of that group is young enough that the extra half-season might not matter.
Cole Green came on and got he last out of Lucas O'Rear's five run sixth and proceeded to give up seven of his won in the seventh. The Dragons now trail 19-7 after seven full.
Nolan Becker comes on in relief of Romano in the bottom of the third. Dan Pigott gets his first hit in the top of the fourth, but is quickly erased trying to steal. The Mustangs now trail Lake Elsenore 5-1.
Brian Pearl and Chris Manno combine to allow three runs in the bottom of the seventh. Pensacola now trails 10-4.
Nowling Green makes it a nice even 20 with a run off Carlos Gonzalez in the bottom of the 8th. Going to the ninth, Dayton is down a TD and two FGs (20-7).
Dayton gets three back on a Junior Arias double, a Juan Perez single, a 2-run double off the bat of Josef Terry, a GO and an error, but fall by a final score of 20-10.
Tucker Barnhart singles to leadoff the top of the 3rd and proceeds to clog the bases for Slidin' Billy who follows with a single of his own. They both move up on a WP. Tucker somewhat atones for his greivous mistake by scoring on an INF single by Theo Bowe and Billy scores on a GO by Travis Mattair. The Blaze now lead 3-0 after three complete.
Dayton to performances:
Juan Perez - 3-5, 4 R, 3B, HR, 3 RBI
Josef Terry - 3-5, 3 R, 2B, 2 RBI
Ryan Wright - 3-5, 2 2B, 3 RBI
Juan Silva - 1-3, R, 2B, BB
Junior Arias - 1-4, 2 R, 2B, BB
Yorman Rodriguez - 1-2
Not sure if YRod was injured, but it shows Jefrey Sierra PH'ing for him in the 8th and the box sore says he "struck out for" Rodriguez.
Looks like the Bats game was called due to inclement weather before Louisville came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. IIRC, that would nullify the two Indy score in the top of the 8th, but Louisville still falls 6-3 in 7.
Negron, Soto and Perez doubled for the Bats, and Gathright had a single, Soto, Harris and Miller each scored runs and Gathright and Perez drove in runs - that is pretty much the sum total of the Bats offense on the evening.
The Pensacola game is final. The Wahoos fall 10-4.
Bryson Smith was 4-4 with 2B, Beau Mills was 1-5 with a HR and RBI and Gregorious was 1-5 with a 3B and 2 RBI.
Josh Smith gave up a leadoff HR to leadoff the bottom of the 4th, but the Blaze still lead 2-1 after 4.5.
Josh Remer gave up a run in the bottom of the sixth. Billings now trails 6-1 after six.
