Recapish
Rafael
Montero was occasionally wild but overall effective against Nashville Wednesday
night in the desert, but the Las Vegas 51s pen blew a late lead en route to a
third straight loss to the Sounds. The 51s finished with 9 hits, but only
managed two extra base hits (Travis Taijeron’s homerun and Kyle Johnson’s
double), and only one player finished with multiple hits (Johnson).
Due
to the high walk rate, Montero wouldn’t have a clean frame until the 5th
inning, but he finished strong by retiring the final 7 in a row. Four of the
five walks came on 4 pitches (one was intentional), but he actually had really
sharp command during the rest of game – his strike rate was greater than 70%
against the other 21 batters he faced.
The
Sounds struck first, getting to Montero in the 4th without the aid
of any walks. Andrew Lambo led off with a single and Matt Olson doubled him to
3B two batters later. Jaycob Brugman would come through with the RBI single in
the frame, and it would’ve been a two run single if not for the great throw
home from Brandon Nimmo – check out the zoomed out footage below. Josh
Rodriguez was due up next, and he became Montero’s last walk, though that may
have been more of a unintentional/intentional walk due to how hot J-Rod has
been this series.
Fortunately
for Montero, it wouldn’t take long for the 51s to get that run back for him, as
Travis Taijeron launched a 93 MPH fastball out to RF for his 7th
blast of the year.
The
game remained tied until Lambo went deep against Josh Smoker in the 8th.
It was the first time Smoker had been asked to go 2 innings this year, and he
had thrown a pair of splitters against Lambo before he knocked the third one
out of the park.
The
51s were again quick to get that run back, and this time took their first lead
in the bottom half of the 8th. T.J. Rivera (who else?) came through
with the RBI single against 95 MPH heat to knock in Kyle Johnson, and then
Brandon Nimmo scored on a balk to make it a 3-2 game.
With
a one-run lead, manager Wally Backman went to closer Paul Sewald, who has
generally been Mr. Reliable. Sewald did strikeout 3 in the 9th, but
a double, single, and wild pitch allowed the tying run to come home. Fitting that
they tied the game on a wild pitch after the 51s took the lead on a balk.
The
bullpens would trade zero’s over the next two frames, but the 51s blinked first
in the 12th. Leadoff batter Max Muncy reached on an E3 to open the
door for a big inning, and Ryon Healy provided the big hit with a go-ahead RBI
double to CF. Rangel Ravelo added an RBI infield single with two outs for some
insurance, but the 51s got little going in their half of the 12th
anyway.
Brandon
Nimmo had a nice night despite 0 hits, reaching 4 times via the walk. He’s
suddenly up to .300/.385/.444 through 160 AB thanks to a great May. These two
teams wrap up their series Thursday night at 10:05 PM, with Seth Lugo (3-2,
7.45 ERA) scheduled to pitch opposite Chris Smith (2-5, 4.33 ERA).
MiLB.tv Defensive Highlights
The
Cashman Field highlights are usually not worth sharing, but here’s the Brandon
Nimmo outfield assist anyway. You can still see where he threw from and that he
was on line with a one-hopper to Monell.
