Recap
The
51s were sitting pretty as they entered the late innings Friday night, enjoying
a 4-1 lead with Vic Black coming in for the 8th, and a reliable
bullpen available behind him. Unfortunately, Black was very wild in this start,
walking the first two batters of the 8th inning, and then allowing a
game-changing three-run homerun to C.J. Cron. That would be it for Black on
this night, and the 51s pen kept it a one run game, but they were suddenly
trailing by a run with only 3 outs to work with. The Bees bullpen would hold on
in the 9th for the comeback win to even the series at a game apiece.
Tyler
Pill was very effective for Las Vegas, working 1-2-3 frames in the 1st,
2nd, and 4th inning, but then reach his pitch limit after
allowing the first two to reach in the 6th. Pill has had an
up-and-down season so far, but he had fared much better on the road coming into
this start – might be something to do with pitching at lower elevations… – and
continued that Wednesday night. Both starters struck out the side in the 1st,
with Pill freezing all 3 Bees batters. He couldn’t work around a leadoff triple
in the 3rd, but he kept the damage to just 1 run. The leadoff batter
reaching would burn Pill again in the 5th, as the Bees would scratch
out a run on two more singles in the frame.
This
series wraps up Thursday night at 9:05 PM, with Dillon Gee scheduled to make
his first PCL start of the year.
Scoring Highlights
Wilfredo
Tovar picked up the team’s first hit with two outs in the 3rd, stole
2B, and then scored on an RBI single from Muno.
The
51s were in a good position for a big inning in the 4th, as Kirk
Nieuwenhuis led off with a single and then went to 3B on a double from Alex
Castellanos, but the 51s would have to settle for just one run on a sac fly
from Brandon Allen.
The
first 3 reached in the 5th – Travis Taijeron walked, Tovar reached
on a bunt single, and then Muno picked up his second RBI single of the night –
but then Matt Reynolds hit into a double play to stunt the rally (Tovar would
score on the play).
