Recap


            Dillon Gee tossed one of his best starts of the year in Sacramento Tuesday night, requiring just 99 pitches to go the distance against the River Cats. Sacramento’s starter, and former Atlanta Braves stud pitcher, Tommy Hanson’s career continued its unexpected spiral towards Indy ball, as the 51s tagged him for 8 runs over 3.1 IP. Brandon Nimmo made his 51s debut, picking up a single, 2 walks, a stolen base, and a sac fly, so it was a strong night. With 3 RBI’s and 3 runs scored – off of a pair of doubles and a single – Darrell Ceciliani paced the 51s offense, but the only Las Vegas player who did not get a hit was Gee, and even he still reached base on a pair of walks.
            Check out the scoring highlights and Gee strikeouts below. As this game got out of hand, Wally chose to give his middle infielders the last few innings off, with Muno taking over SS duties for Wilfredo Tovar, Zach Lutz coming in for 3B, and T.J. Rivera taking over 2B. This series continues in Sacramento Wednesday night at 10:05 PM, with Tyler Pill (2-6, 7.60 ERA) scheduled to pitch for Las Vegas.

Scoring Highlights


            Danny Muno led off the game with a single, and then Dilson Herrera and Johnny Monell would walk to load the bases with one out. Travis Taijeron unloaded the bases with a three run double to LF, and then came around to score after a pair of wild pitches from Tommy Hanson.



            With one out in the 3rd inning, Monell doubled to LF and Taijeron singled him home. Brandon Nimmo would add his first AAA hit in the frame as well.




            Wilfredo Tovar led off the 4th inning with a single, and then scored on an RBI double from Darrell Ceciliani later in the frame, which was the final knock against Hanson before he was removed. Dilson followed with a two run single against the new Reno pitcher Cody Hall to give Las Vegas an 8-0 lead.




            Ceciliani doubled home another pair of runs in the 6th inning, and then came around to score on a double play groundout from Monell.


            Zach Lutz doubled home Nimmo (walk) in the 7th inning.


            Ceciliani led off the 8th with a single, went to 3B on a double from T.J. Rivera, and then scored on a sac fly from Nimmo. Rivera would eventually come around to score on an RBI single from Brandon Allen.
