Recapish


            For a second straight day in Salt Lake, the 51s used a big 6-run inning to take control of their game against the Bees en route to an easy win. Sean Gilmartin had great control of his secondary stuff on the mound, which led to 8 strikeouts, matching his season high.
            When a crafty, soft-tosser like Sean Gilmartin has a big strike zone like the ump was calling in this one, hitters better be ready to swing. The Bees never made that adjustment Sunday, taking borderline pitches for strikes all night, including five for strike 3. The 51s did make the adjustment and went into the 3rd inning ready to swing, finishing with a pair of doubles and Gavin Cecchini’s fourth homer of the season in the frame.
            Gilmartin didn’t need a big one in this one, but he was quick to get his teammates back to the field over the next few frames. He ran into trouble during a long 6th inning, when he allowed a double and the Bees only run of the game. A two out walk in the inning loaded the bases, but Gilmartin ended the threat with his 8th strikeout of the night.
            Despite the big lead, Paul Sewald was brought in to work the 9th with rehabbing Travis d’Arnaud behind the plate. Sewald had his best outing in awhile, striking out the side, which led to some chest pumps for the Las Vegas closer.
            I break down the scoring, defense, and strikeout details with highlights below, so enjoy! This series wraps up Monday night at 9:05 PM with Rafael Montero (2-4, 5.82 ERA) scheduled to pitch for Las Vegas.


MiLB.tv Scoring Highlights


            The 51s broke this game open with a 6-run 3rd inning, the second straight game they had a 6-run frame. Daniel Muno led things off with his third double of the season, which was also the 51s first hit of the night. Muno went to 3B on a Dilson single and then scored on an E6 – it was initially ruled a hit for Brandon Nimmo. Travis d’Arnaud then doubled Dilson and Nimmo home to give Las Vegas a 3-0 lead. Gavin Cecchini would double that lead 4 batters later when he launched his 4th homer of the season.





            Travis d’Arnaud picked up his second hit of the game in the 4th inning and Roger Bernadina eventually knocked Johnny Monell in after a fielder’s choice.



            Nimmo did pick up a hit in the 5th inning.


            Eric Campbell doubled into the LF corner in the 9th and Cecchini’s second hit of the game brought him home to cap the scoring.




MiLB.tv Defensive Highlights


            Gavin Cecchini started a double play behind Gilmartin in the 7th inning.


            Roger Bernadina made a nice catch at the wall with a runner on 1B in the 8th inning.
