Pensacola hosts Chattanooga and Sharky Rogers (1.80) will be making just his second AA start. First pitch in about 45 minutes.
Dayton is at Lansing and they are just about underway. Staling Gerson (3.95) takes the ball for the Dragons.
The Blaze will send Tim Crabbe (3.91) to the mound to face off against the Visalia Onions. Crabbe has pitched well for Bakersfield. His control has improved quite a bit. In four previous starts he has walked just seven batters while striking out 22 in 23 innings of work.
Billings will hand the ball to Drew Cisco (4.08) tonight. Cisco has walked just two Pioneer League hitters so far this season. He will be making his tenth start tonight. Pretty impressive.
Double posts seem to be having a field day today.
Villareal had to record five outs in the inning as errors by Neftali Soto and Chris Valaika help Toledo plate a pair in the first.
Back-to-back doubles by Joe Terry and Yorman produced a Dayton run in the top of the first.
Gerson through five: 5 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 6 K.
Dayton leads 2-1. Waldrop has a couple hits.
Sharky appears to be on: 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K.
But so is the guy for Chattanooga. The Wahoos are hitless and the game is scoreless.
Villareal with a mediocre performance tonight, lasting only four and a third. He gave up eight hits, four runs (three earned) and struck out three. Josh Judy has come on for an inning and two-thirds and given up a run. Bats trail 5-2. Felix Perez singled, stole second and rode home on Brian Peacock's two-run dinger. Neftali Soto has a single. And that is the sum total of Bats' offense through five.
Billy Hamilton single-handedly manufactures a run as the Wahoos take a 1 zip lead after four. He singled. Then proceeded to steal both second and third before coming home on a wild throw by the Nooga catcher.
You can up that to 3 runs in an inning and two-thirds off of Judy. I'm not joshin'. 7-2 Mud Hens.
Blue Fish offense extremely efficient tonight. Two hits and two runs. David Vidal doubled and one out later Mark Fleury got him home. The Sharkmeister in total control. 5IP 2H 1bb 4k. Pensacola up 2-0.
