Low-A: Clinton 7, at Cedar Rapids 2Win: Beavan (4-1, 2.90)
Clinton swept the four-game road series with Cedar Rapids. Under the MWL’s loopy playoff system (split season, two wild cards), Clinton’s magic number is down to 13 after 47 games.
Blake Beavan walked none, struck out four, and allowed two runs (neither earned) in six innings. The runs scored on a sac fly and groundout after a Jonathan Greene error. Beavan has one walk – one! – in 118 batters faced. Lefties are hitting .259/.255/.516 against him, righties .197/.206/.311. Ryan Turner (3.16 ERA) pitched two scoreless innings.
Engel Beltre hit his 3rd homer and singled. Mitch Moreland (.319/.365/.507) went 3-5 with a double, and catcher Justin Pickett thumped a two-run homer and doubled twice. (from Scott Lucas).
Now, something I was able to do: Beavan has 46 Ground Outs to 30 Fly Outs. That's a 1.5-1 ratio, and that's not at all bad. Normally you would see it turn out the other way, more fly-outs to ground-outs. Nice? Nice. Johnny Out.
