Stars down 2-0 in the first.

Stars tie it 2-2 in the bottom of the first.

RBI double by Gemoll. He scores a couple batters later on an errant pickoff throw of Nelson Cruz.

 

Stars down 5-2 in the 3rd.

3 unearned runs on errors by Enrique Cruz and Crabbe and a balk by Parra

Tied 5-5 in after 3.

Replay of the first inning with Gemoll doubling in Gwynn. Zuniga drives in Gemoll with an inside-the-park home run (outfielder went down crashing into the wall).

Gemoll and Gwynn each with 2 hits and a SB.

 

Bradley pitching in the 4th, so Parra done after 3 innings.

Good old fashioned slugfest in Huntsville. Crabbe scores on a Bibbs RBI triple. Bibbs scores on the throwing error. Gwynn and Gemoll with their 3rd hits of the day. Cruz drives them both in with a double off the wall. Zuniga with another RBI. 10-5 Huntsville.

 

Missed the play, but Gemoll leaves the game after a bad collision. So Vandenberg comes in to play defense for the first time this year.

 

Ford with another shaky outing. Seems like he gave up a bunch of hits. Damage limited to 1 in the 7th and 1 in the 8th. 10-7 Stars, heading to the 9th.

 

Stars win their 5th straight.

2-0 Sounds.

Fielder & Nelson with RBI singles.

 

8-1 Sounds.

Weeks with a 3-run HR (leads team in steaks now).

Weeks is overrated anyway.

[molitor fan]

Rickie Weeks hit by 2 pitches already today, and his 3 run dinger gives him 11 Rbi's for the season.

 

Nelson Cruz gets his 6th double of the season, as he is tearing up the pitching in this double A league too.

 

A nice rebound by Weeks from his not so hot performance yesterday.

[homer]

Nice to see Fielder, Nelson, and Hart with multi hit games (Prince has 3). Rick Helling = not good.

[ILBrewerFan]

What the heck happened to Helling in the 6th? Yikes. I went to lunch and came back to a 10 spot by OK.

[Brian the Automator]

Helling's being Helling.... It's like asking a turtle why it's so slow.

[SlideBernieSlide]

Heiling might actually give up 10 earned runs in less than 6 innings of pitching and still get the Win. Betcha don't see that too often. The Prince, Corey Hart and Nelson all with some very solid plate performances this afternoon.

 

Also, good to see Tony Jr keeping his solid effort in Huntsville going.

[deeswan]

Quite the game in OK City right now, OK has the tying run to the plate as I write. Well, Nashville got out of it, but it is still 16-13 with an inning to go. For reference, the 16 runs Nashville has scored today are only 4 less than the Brewers have scored over the last week.

[brewmann04]

Does anyone think ThThat Dana should Replace Heiling in the sounds rotation

[brettac1]

Not with only 38 innings at AA. If Eveland was ready for AAA, he'd be there already.

[homer]

Anyone feel Nelson Cruz will be in AAA by mid July? Right now there's nowhere to put him, but that might not be the case in a few months with injury/trades.

Final: Huntsville 10, Mobile (Padres) 7

A Wild Wednesday Win

 

Tony Zuniga hit an inside-the-park home run and David Bradley worked three scoreless innings in relief to lead the Stars to their fifth consecutive win, a 10-7 decision over Mobile Wednesday afternoon at Joe Davis Stadium. The Stars improved to 6-7 on the season and to 5-1 at home, while the BayBears lost their ninth straight game to drop to 4-9.

 

The win was somewhat overshadowed by a nasty collision between the two first baseman, Mobile?s Greg Sain and Huntsville?s Brandon Gemoll in the top of the fifth inning. Sain lofted a high, pop up near the first base line and on his way up the line, Gemoll was coming down the line to try to make the catch and the two smacked into each other head on and hit the ground. Both players were down for a few minutes before being taken out of the game. No word was released after the game on the condition of either player.

 

Huntsville broke up a 5-5 game with a five-run fourth inning rally, matching their season high for runs in one frame set in the 8th inning of Sunday?s 11-2 win over Carolina. Callix Crabbe walked to lead off the inning and remained at first base until Kennard Bibbs delivered a two-out triple into the right field corner. Jason Clements? errant relay throw to third base to try to cut down Bibbs instead allowed him to score to give the Stars a 7-5 lead. Tony Gwynn, Jr. and Gemoll each singled for their third hits of the day to chase Mobile starter Travis Chick, who was lifted after 3 2/3 innings in his shortest outing of the season. RD Speish took over and was greeted by a Nelson Cruz double, his second of the day and seventh of the year, to score both runners to push the home team?s lead to 9-5. Zuniga then followed with a base hit to center field plate Cruz to finish Huntsville?s scoring.

 

Mobile tallied single runs in the seventh and eighth innings off of Matt Ford and put two runners on in the ninth against Matt DeWitt before the veteran right-hander fanned Clements to end the game and pick up his second save of the season.

 

The BayBears took advantage of two Stars errors in the third inning to score three times to take a 5-2 lead. A leadoff walk to Kennard Jones was followed by an Enrique Cruz throwing error, a run-scoring single by Paul McAnulty, a Crabbe fielding error, a balk by starting pitcher Manny Parra that allowed a run to score and a run-producing ground out by Troy Cameron, his first of two on the day. Huntsville had committed just seven errors in the first 12 games of the year and more than one error in just two games prior to Wednesday.

 

The Stars rallied for three runs in the bottom of the inning to tie the score for the second time in the game. Gwynn, Jr. singled, stole second and scored on a double by Gemoll, who has hit safely in five out of six games. Gemoll stole third before Nelson Cruz struck out and Zuniga came to the plate and blasted the first pitch he saw from Chick deep to left field. McAnulty gave chase and crashed into the outfield wall in an unsuccessful attempt to make the catch. The ball bounded away, back toward the diamond, and by the time the relay throw was sent home, the 30-year old Zuniga legged out the Stars first inside-the-parker at Joe Davis Stadium since July 1 of last season when Jamie Gann performed the same feat. Zuniga hit his first long ball of the year and became the first Stars player to drive in three runs in a game this season.

 

Bradley took over for Parra in the fourth and worked out of runners at first and second with one out jams in the fourth and sixth innings to earn his first win of the season. The right-hander fanned three, walked one and allowed three hits in his second three inning relief stint of the season. The Huntsville bullpen has now earned four of the team?s six wins on the season.

 

The series against Mobile concludes Thursday evening with right-hander Glenn Woolard getting the starting assignment for the Stars against BayBears right-hander Jose Oyervidez Coverage of the game gets underway at 6:50 p.m. central time on ESPN 1450 AM and via the internet at www.huntsvillestars.com.

 

Huntsville Box Score:

If Carlos Lee or Geoff Jenkins went on the DL today, wouldn't you call up Nelson Cruz before Brad, Corey, or David?

West Virginia Site Game Summary:

 

The Lexington Legends took a 3-2 lead over the West Virginia Power into the ninth inning of Wednesday morning?s game, and scored three insurance runs in the final frame as they won their sixth game against the Power, by the final score of 6-2 at Appalachian Power Park.

 

Scott Robinson drove in the first run of the game on a two-out RBI single to give Lexington the early 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning. The Legends took it to 2-0 on Lou Santangelo?s solo homerun in the top of the third inning. Jonny Ash?s sacrifice fly scored Santangelo in the top of the fifth inning to give the Legends a 3-0 advantage.

 

The Power came within a run when Alcides Escobar hit a two-out, two-run triple in the bottom of the fifth to make it a 3-2 ball game.

 

The score remained 3-2 until Lexington added three runs in the top of the ninth. Jonny Ash drove in Lou Santangelo on a sacrifice fly for the second time in the game to make it 4-2 Legends, and Scott Robinson smacked a two run single to drive in the final two runs of the game.

 

Troy Patton (1-0) earned the victory for the Legends and Yovani Gallardo (0-2) obtained the loss for West Virginia. With the victory the Legends improve to 7-6 on the season and the Power drop to 2-11 with the loss.

 

The Power will end the first homestand on a ?Buck Night? at Appalachian Power Park on Thursday night against the Legends. Right Hander Forrest Martin (0-2, 5.19) will throw for the Power and the Legends will counter with Right Hander Jimmy Barthmaier (0-0, 1.10).

Final: Nashville 16, Oklahoma (Rangers) 13

Nashville Site Game Summary:

 

The Nashville Sounds won a barnburner at SBC Bricktown Ballpark in Oklahoma City on Wednesday afternoon, jumping out to an early 13-1 lead and withstanding a 10-run Oklahoma inning to hold on for a 16-13 victory over the host RedHawks in the second game of a four-game series.

 

With the victory, Nashville (8-6) took a half-game lead in the American Conference Northern Division, pending the result of the Omaha-Albuquerque contest later in the day.

 

The 29 combined runs scored in the contest marked the most in a game involving the Sounds since May 20, 2000, when Nashville and Colorado Springs combined for 32 runs in a 20-12 Sounds victory at Sky Sox Stadium.

 

Nashville?s 16 runs marked a season high as well as their best scoring output since the Sounds plated 16 against Iowa on July 21, 2004. The Sounds? 16 hits in the game were also the club?s highest total this season.

 

Every Sounds batter recorded a hit, scored a run, or produced an RBI. Rickie Weeks, Kevin Orie, and Ryan Knox all homered for the visitors and catcher Julio Mosquera led the club with four RBIs. The only Nashville player without a hit in the game was third baseman Trent Durrington, whose 0-for-4 effort snapped the Aussie?s season-best seven-game hitting streak.

 

The Sounds got things started quickly in the top of the first inning as the first four batters reached base to produce a pair of runs against Oklahoma starter Shane Bazzell, who was making his career Triple-A debut. Knox walked to open the game and Weeks was hit by a pitch to set the table for the heart of the Nashville order. Prince Fielder (3-for-5) and Brad Nelson (3-for-5) followed with consecutive RBI singles to center and a 2-0 lead.

 

The run driven in by Fielder in the frame snapped an 11-game RBI-less streak for the first baseman, who extended his hitting streak to a season-best three games.

 

After Oklahoma halved the lead in the bottom of the frame on an RBI groundout, the Nashville offense exploded in the following two frames, posting 11 runs while batting around in each of the second and third innings to give the Sounds a comfortable 13-1 lead.

 

Weeks delivered the big shot during a six-run second for the Sounds, belting a three-run homer ? his second longball of the year ? off Bazzell. Nelson, Mosquera, and Orie also added run-producing knocks in the inning; Orie?s RBI infield single extended the veteran infielder?s team-best hitting streak to nine games; he finished the contest with a 2-for-4, three-RBI afternoon, notching his team-leading fifth multiple-hit effort of the season.

 

Corey Hart and Mosquera provided the firepower in Nashville?s five-run third inning, which sent Bazzell to the showers. With the bases loaded and one out, Hart stroked a single to right to plate the Milwaukee Brewers? top two prospects ? Weeks and Fielder. Three batters and a pitching change later, Mosquera came to the plate with the sacks again full of Sounds and turned a Craig House offering into a bases-clearing, three-run double to left to up the lead to 13-1.

 

Sounds starter Rick Helling had things comfortably under control, allowing only one hit ? a first-inning Esteban German single ? over the first five innings.

 

Oklahoma made a game of it in the bottom of the sixth, however, plating 10 runs in the frame off Helling while sending 15 batters to the plate. Jason Botts belted a grand slam and Jason Conti crushed a two-run shot off Helling, and Gerald Laird later added a three-run homer against Nashville reliever Mike Meyers to highlight the inning?s scoring, which reduced the Nashville advantage to 13-11. The 10 RedHawks runs were the most scored against Nashville in a single inning since the start of the 1999 season.

 

In the RedHawks? sixth, eight batters came to the plate and six runs scored before Helling recorded the first out on a strikeout of Cody Ransom. The home runs by Botts, Conti, and Laird in the inning was each player?s fourth home run of the 2005 season for Oklahoma.

 

The offensive fireworks continued for both clubs in the seventh as the teams traded two-run homers to make it a 15-13 contest. Orie belted his third roundtripper of the year, a two-run dinger off Oklahoma reliever Keith Stamler, in the top of the frame before Oklahoma centerfielder Manny Alexander delivered the RedHawks? shot with a one-out, two-run effort against Meyers in the bottom of the frame, the veteran?s first tater of the season.

 

Knox smacked his first home run of the season to lead off the top of the eighth for Nashville, driving a Stamler offering down the left field line for a 16-13 lead.

 

Helling (1-0) earned his first victory of the year following a performance that included five solid innings prior to the 10-run sixth inning by Oklahoma. All told, the Sounds right-hander allowed 10 runs on seven hits and four walks in his 5 2/3 innings of work. Bazzell (0-1) took his lumps in his first taste of Class AAA ball, allowing 12 runs on 10 hits and five walks in just 2 1/3 frames to absorb the loss. Right-hander Kane Davis tossed the final two innings for the Sounds to earn his first save of the season.

 

The teams continue their series with a 7:05 p.m. matchup on Thursday evening at SBC Bricktown Ballpark. Nashville left-hander Andy Pratt (0-1, 9.35) takes the ball for his third start of the season. He?ll face former Sound John Wasdin (1-1, 5.56) for the RedHawks.

Final: St. Lucie (Mets) 11, Brevard County 8

This roster is as non-descript as recent High Desert clubs; suddenly even Lou Palmisano is a JAG (just another guy)...

 

Brevard County Site Game Summary:

 

VIERA, FL ? Pitching problems once again doomed the Manatees as they were swept by the visiting St Lucie Mets 11-6 Tuesday night at Space Coast Stadium.

 

The Mets got on the board early with two runs in the first off starter Tim Dillard. Both runs were unearned and ran Dillard's unearned runs streak to 13.2 innings. The Mets did end that streak in the third on an RBI double by Ryan Harvey.

 

More offense by the Mets put six runs up in the sixth inning to seal the game though the Manatees would make a late run.

 

A solo home-run by Jeff Eure and a two-run shot by Carlos De La Cruz in the bottom of the sixth would keep the ?Tees in it. But a late rally in the ninth by Brevard would be cut short. Eure would get his second RBI of the game on a double and he would score on a wild pitch to cut St. Lucie?s lead to 11-8. Again the late rally would come up short for BC. Brevard would leave eight men stranded on the base paths.

 

The Manatees drop to 4-8 after the three game sweep while the Mets move up to 8-5. Brevard heads on the road for two three game sets with the Jupiter Hammerheads and the Palm Beach Cardinals before returning home next Tuesday to take on the Vero Beach Dodgers for four games.
