Recap
The
Las Vegas 51s got another great performance from Seth Lugo, but Alex Torres and
Vic Black were wild during some critical moments in relief of Lugo, and the
offense could not get going against Round Rock starter Nick Martinez. Lugo
struck out 6 of the first 10 batters he’d face over the first 3 innings, but
allowed a leadoff blast to 20-year old Nomar Mazara in the 4th
inning to fall behind 1-0. The 51s were going to be in a good position to tie
the game with one out in the top of the 6th, but instead of reaching
3B with a triple, Darrell Ceciliani pulled up lame between the bags, which
resulted in a tag out and injury delay. Brandon Nimmo would have to replace
him, although Nimmo had been out of the lineup after taking a ball to the nose
(per Las Vegas announcer Russ Langer), and had been planning to miss a few more
days. Eric Campbell followed with a single, so there was a good chance they
could’ve tied the game right then. In the bottom of the frame, Lugo was removed
with one out and runners on 2B and 3B, and both of those runners would be
allowed to score. Torres walked the first two batters he faced before allowed a
sac fly to Joey Gallo, and Vic Black walked a batter before finally finishing
the frame by painting the outside corner with 98 MPH heat. Kevin Plawecki
provided the only scoring for Las Vegas leading off the 7th with a
blast, which was his first AAA homerun of the year. Both Lugo and Cody
Satterwhite would strikeout Joey Gallo during the game, and both got him to swing
through 3 pitches in the AB.
This
series resumes Saturday night at 7:05 PM, with Matthew Bowman (7-15, 5.40 ERA)
scheduled to pitch opposite Chi Chi Gonzalez (6-7, 3.96 ERA).
Scoring Highlights
Darrell
Ceciliani and Matt Reynolds combined for 3 doubles in the game. Ceciliani grabbed
his hamstring and went face down between 2B and 3B trying to stretch his second
double into a triple, and he would have to leave the game.
Nomar
Mazara led off the bottom of the 4th with a long homerun to RF for
Round Rock – he is an impressive 20-year old prospect.
In
the bottom of the 6th, Seth Lugo would allow a pair of singles to
Drew Stubbs and Mazara leading off the frame before striking out Ed Lucas for
his final batter faced on the night. He probably didn’t need to come out at
just 88 pitches, and the 51s relief could not bail him out. Alex Torres came in
and walked to first two batters he faced before trading a run for an out on a
sac fly.
Kevin Plawecki provided the only
Las Vegas run with a solo blast leading off the 7th.
In
the bottom of the 7th, Mazara singled home Stubbs to increase the
Express lead back to three runs.
Defensive Highlights
Matt
Reynolds made a great play in the hole for the final out of the 1st
inning.
