I'll be updating when scoring or other notable plays take place, if anyone is interested. Hopefully Hicks continues his hot streak!
Right now it's 0-0 in the bottom of the first inning, and Darin Mastroianni walked and promptly stole second base (4th steal of season for him).
Pedro Florimon grounds out.
Evan Bigley flies out. Nathan Hanson grounds out. Mastroianni stranded.
2 ground outs and a fly out for Andrew Albers in the top of the second. No score.
Hicks flies out.
Mark Dolence with an infield single, but stranded after stealing second when Danny Lehmann grounds out.
No score.
After giving up a leadoff single, Albers gets out of trouble with a K, a pickoff and a ground out. No damage done.
Quite the early start, even in EDT.
Albers is one of a handful of lefties who could see an in-season promotion this year. And hopefully that happens, because it's a weak spot, prospect-wise.
Yea, shane, they do a few of these early starts here. Probably tough to get up for!
NB fails to capitalize after Pedro Florimon and Evan Bigley 2-out walks. No score after 3.
1-2-3 4th inning for Albers. 1 hit and no walks thus far.
Aaron Hicks leads off the 4th with a double to right field. If I'm doing my counting right, that's 3 extra base hits in his last 3 games. And 5 total hits.
Hicks scores on Deibinson Romero single. 1-0 NB.
Dolence sacrifice bunts Romero (who had advanced to second on the throw) to third base.
Danny Lehmann flies into double play, Romero out at home.
Romero singles him in. Great to see Hicks doing this. Also good to see if Romero can bounce back and get his career going again.
Romero looked good at the plate a few nights ago when I was there -- 3 hits including a double. Fielding wasn't spectacular, though.Quote:
