Recap:

            Some poor defense in the 3rd, three wild pitches in the 9th, missed opportunities late, and a walk-off blast from Petit combined to end the Las Vegas 51s three game-winning streak. 51s highlights can be found below in gif form. I wanted to include the walk-off HR, but the archives cut out before the bottom of the 12th. These recaps take some time, so I won’t always be able to put them together, but they are more fun than the standard written ones.


            T∂A got things starting in the top of the 1st with this HR to the bullpen beyond LF.






            This start was very much in line with what Verrett has done all season; here are his first three strikeouts:

Domingo Santana swinging in the 1st.



Matt Duff swinging in the 1st.



Max Stassi swinging in the 2nd.



            OKC scored two in the 3rd and threatened for more, but Cory Vaughn made this catch at the wall to end the inning.





            Allan Dykstra stroked this one-out single to RF in the 4th.



            Cory Vaughn followed with this blast to CF to tie the game.





            Verrett would have one more strikeout, of Erik Castro in the 4th.



            Bradford pitched two very nice innings; here he gets Erik Castro swinging in the 6th.



            With one out and nobody on base, Cesar Puello tried to bunt his way on and appears to have been safe.





            Anthony Seratelli would later give the 51s a 5-4 lead with this two-run double with two outs in the 7th – what more could there have been if Puello was called safe?


            Bradford struck out Ronald Torreyes swinging in the bottom of the 7th, as part of a 1-2-3 inning.



            The last gif I have is of the wild pitch that tied the game in the 9th. First, let’s recap the bottom of the 8th and bottom of the 9th. After two sparkling innings from Bradford, Backman turned to vet (and recent Met) Buddy Carlyle to start the 8th. He got Marc Krauss to strike out swinging and Matt Duffy to line out to RF. He was then replaced for Miguel Socolovich to face a righty (?). Not sure why he felt the need to make that switch, but safe to say the Socolovich did not have his best stuff Friday night – he allowed two men to reach before ending the 8th and then a leadoff single in the 9th. He’d then get two outs before throwing a wild pitch and walking Domingo Santana. Then Backman brought in Scott Rice to face the lefty hitting Krauss. Rice also threw a wild pitch and walked the batter. Then Backman brought in Church to face the righty hitting Duffy. Church also threw a wild pitch and walked the batter. What a disaster.
