Recapish
After
falling behind early due to Astros top prospect A.J. Reed, the Las Vegas 51s
would spend all afternoon Monday trying to battle back, but the Grizzlies would
add just enough to stay ahead and take the finale. Las Vegas starter Stolmy
Pimentel allowed a titanic shot from Reed with Danny Worth on 1B in the 1st,
but was otherwise strong against Fresno. The 51s had Grizzlies starter Mike
Hauschild on the ropes in both the 1st and 2nd innings,
but they’d manage only 1 run while stranding 5 runners on base early. Hauschild
then settled in to give the Grizzlies 7 great innings, and his bullpen did just
enough to hang on for a Fresno win.
Hauschild
struck out Matt Reynolds and Johnny Monell twice each over the first 2.1 IP,
and there were two runners on base for 3 of those strikeouts. He featured a
nice forkball, and would get better as he settled into the start. Dilson
Herrera had a nice day at the plate and in the field, until some 9th
inning strangeness spoiled the 51s final comeback chance (see below). Brandon
Nimmo had a hit in his first AB, reached base 3 times, and was sharp in CF,
tracking some deep fly balls down with time to spare. Erik Goeddel was a little
wild when he entered during the 7th inning, and Fresno was able to
tack on an extra run with him on the mound (charged to Chase Huchingson).
I
break this game down further with highlights below, so enjoy! Las Vegas
travelled to Sacramento after this game, where they’ll start a 4-game series
with the River Cats. The game is scheduled for 10:05 PM, and Seth Lugo will be
looking to repeat his performance
from last week against this team.
Scoring Highlights
Dilson
Herrera and Brandon Nimmo started the game with singles off Fresno starter Mike
Hauschild, but Las Vegas would leave the bases loaded with 0 runs scored in the
1st inning.
Danny
Worth had a big day for Fresno, raising his average to .472 by going 3-3 with a
walk and double. He picked up his first hit in the 1st, and then
scored on a mammoth homerun off the bat of top Astros prospect A.J. Reed. Worth
added an RBI double in the 3rd and a seeing eye single in the 5th.
Gavin
Cecchini led off the 2nd with a single into CF, and then came around
to score on Dilson’s second hit in as many innings.
The
51s loaded the bases with 3 walks in the 8th inning, and Roger
Bernadina came through with the two run single that made this a 4-3 game.
Ty
Kelly led off the 9th with a single into RF, but Dilson would bunt
into a double play that ended any threat. He was bunting for a hit, but for the
sake of the narrative, we can just blame Wally – even he must realize that it’s
a bad idea to call for a bunt with one of your best hitters while trailing in
the 9th inning. Dilson was nearly out of the box as he appears to make contact
with the pitch, which left his bat in the path of the ball after it bounced off
the ground. I think he realized there was double contact and would stop running to 1B,
but it was barely deflected, so the umps did not see or call it.
Defensive Highlights
Dilson
Herrera made an excellent play ranging to his left in the 3rd
inning, getting Andrew Aplin by a hair at 1B.
