Recap:

            The Las Vegas 51s were not able to overcome a wild Cory Mazzoni Wednesday night, losing to the Rainiers for the third time this series with one game left to play. Mazzoni was wild from the start, walking leadoff hitter Abraham Almonte to start the bottom of the 1st. He’d walk the leadoff hitter in the 3rd and 4th innings as well, allowing all three leadoff walks to come around and score. He looked good working a 1-2-3 2nd inning, but was missing his spots and the strike zone the rest of the game. Offensively, Matt ∂en Dekker and Wilmer Flores continued their hot hitting, and the 51s had plenty of opportunities throughout the game, they just weren’t getting timely hits. Erik Goeddel and John Church came out of the pen and were great, shutting down the Rainiers offense over the last 4.1 innings.

This first pitch was so promising too
Caught Choi looking for his first strikeout
Got Quintero to chase, Centeno completed the play with a throw to 1B
Montero went down swinging on three pitches, this was his 0-1 cut
This was not the same pitch
Taylor chased on this 1-2 offering

Matt ∂en Dekker

He just keeps on hitting
Ended up on 2B after this double
           

Wilmer Flores

           
Ball goes through that guys hands
 
Let's hope he brings this success to the majors

Allan Dykstra

This ball takes a long time to come down
 
Only 15 MPH on those left turns into the wall?
          

Daniel Muno

Muno's been one of the 51s best hitters since the beginning of June
