Oh! Pardon me, major league scouts, would you like some jelly for your PB&AaronBlair sandwich??

3rd consecutive single for Rice, this one by Stainback, and now a wild pitch advances both runners to 2nd and 3rd. Stringer walks on 5 pitches...most not particularly close. Cook up with the bases loaded now

Blair does not seem to have great control today

Cook hits a soft liner right at the right fielder, leaving the bases loaded. But 3-0 Rice

1-2-3 inning for Jordan (two strikeoutsKKK, fly out). Can our right-handed batters muster anything against Blair? Let's show a little patience, as he has had control issues on occassion. Let's make him work a bit, and try to get to the bullpen at some point.

Ratterree leadoff walk. That's what i'm talking about! Sac bunt situation here. Let's execute.
Rat advances to 2B on passed ball. I'd still bunt here.
Hoelscher grounded out to 3B. Ugh. Should have been trying to hit to the right side to advance the runner. Bad AB.
Aquino clutch RBI double down the line! One out.
Perrott ground out to SS, but Aquino advances to 3B. Two outs.
Byrd clutch RBI single!
Byrd steals 2B. Two outs.
Fox clutch, opposite field RBI single!
Stainback singles. Runners on 1B and 2B, two outs.
Wild pitch moves both runners into scoring position. Two outs.
Stringer walked to load the bases with two outs.
Cook flied out to RF.
Terrific offensive inning against an elite pitcher. Let's keep it up!

Good guys lead 3-0 heading to the top of the third inning.

Let's just keep putting up zeros up in the top halves of the innings.

Diving stop by Hoelscher with a runner on 2nd saves a run and gets the 3rd out

I'm not questioning his honesty when he's under so much scrutiny tonight, but does anyone have a better anagram for Aaron Blair than "A Liar Baron"?

Ratterree leads off with a hard single and then steals second

Hoelscher bunt moves a runner over, then a strikeout, then Perrott walks (some obvious wildness here from Blair). Perrott takes off for 2nd and draws a throw, and Ratterree takes home! Great baserunning, 4-0 now

Perrott the speed demon.

Ratt leads off B3 with a Wonder Bread single, slathers some Jif with a steal of 2B, then jiggles his jelly to 3B on a Hoelscher sac bunt.

BOOM! Ratt completes the sandwich with a 2-out steal of home!! 4-0 Rice!!

Byrd walks. Fox single scores Perrott and moves Byrd to 3rd. 5-0!

Byrd walks, Perrott at 2nd, Fox up.

And the menagerie continues!! Fox RBI!!

You know what time it is, MLB Scouts.

Stainback singles in Byrd...runs pouring out of this one.

Marshall needs to replace Blair. Not fair to leave the kid out there when he does not have it. Maybe he was nervous with all the scouts there.

Byrd flies home on a Ford cruiser!! 6-0 Rice!!

Where has this offence been all season?

I'm sure Blair wants the opportunity to show he's better than this

What in the wide, wide world of sports is going on heah? We can't score against the nobodies, but the ace can't seem to get three outs against us.

Blair's 5th walk of the day
