Recapish


            It took two days, but the Columbia Fireflies won in a blowout fashion to start their series with Greenville over the weekend. Tyler Badamo was off to his best start of the year on Saturday when a light malfunction forced the umps to suspend the game before the bottom of the 5th started. The Fireflies then came out ready to hit on Sunday, extending their lead from 5-0 to 13-3 over the 5th and 6th innings, and holding on for an easy win.
            Badamo had good command of his fastball from the start, which helped him strike out or induce a ground ball from 12 of the 14 batters to face him. Per the iscorecast report shown below, he sat 88-91 with his fastball, and mixed in a curveball and slider.
            The Drive managed to chip away at the 5-0 lead when the game resumed Sunday, picking up a pair of runs off Johnny Magliozzi in the 5th. They scratched out another run against Seth Davis in the 6th, but once the lead ballooned to 10 runs, the game ended rather quickly.
            I break down the Fireflies scoring details with highlights below, so enjoy! The two played a 7-inning game shortly after this one finished, with Joe Shaw starting for Columbia.


Scoring Highlights


            Vinny Siena started his night with a single in the 1st inning.


            Milton Ramos doubled to deep CF in the 2nd inning, but would be thrown out at 3B on a fielder’s choice.


            Enmanuel Zabala picked up a single into CF in the 3rd inning.


            Siena reached on a throwing error in the 4th inning and eventually came around to score the Fireflies first run. David Thompson singled him to 2B, a force out advanced him to 3B, and then he scored on a wild pitch with two outs.


            Siena added a single in the 5th inning, but Jeffrey Diehl provided the big hit in the inning, launching a no-doubt grand slam to left center field.



            Vicente Lupo started the 6th inning rally with a single into CF. Joe Tuschak and Siena singled to load the bases with 1 out, but Thompson couldn’t get a run home. Fortunately Diehl walked to bring home Lupo, and then Ramos reached on an infield single to bring home Tuschak.


            Jose Garcia sparked a huge 7th inning with a leadoff double to LF, his first double of the year. After a pair of walks loaded the bases, J.C. Rodriguez unloaded the bases with a triple to RF. Walks would reload the bases for Ivan Wilson in the frame, and he singled home David Thompson to make it a 13-3 game.




            Siena added a fourth hit in the 8th, and Wilson his eighth double of the year in the 9th.




Defensive Highlights


            Milton Ramos made some sparkling plays in this game but, as you may have noticed, Fluor Field doesn’t have its best camera’s working for this series. They did better during day 2, and I couldn’t help but laugh when Ramos made the ridiculous spinning play in the 7th, because the announcer called it a hit off the bat. Vinny Siena also made a nice play to end the 3rd inning.
