Didn't realize this is the first time in Puckett's career he has started at third.
End of 1st, Carolina up 1-0.

Puckett charged with an error to prolong the top of the 4th for Thompson.
Going to the bottom of the 4th, 1-0 Mudcats.
Travis Webb goes tomorrow night. The opposing pitcher is a kid drafted out of Clayton High School here, Chris Archer.
Reid Fronk, of UNC fame, homers to tie the game in the top of the 5th, 1-0.
The Puckett experiment at third has not started auspiciously. He has three errors in the game.
One of them wasn't a straight-out error. Tough to explain but it wasn't like a run of the mill error.
Once it started getting out of hand I kinda stopped paying attention. Oh well. Mudcats lose 8-1.
Travis Webb squares off against North Carolina native Chris Archer in what should be a good attended Thirsty Thursday.
Bakersfield pounded out 19 hits to win 11-6. Ryan LaMarre had four of them, which is good to see. Welinton Ramirez had three. The bullpen (Hayes, Gaffney, Salinas) pitched five scoreless innings with seven strikeouts.
