Getting To Know Your Sounds: Mark DiFelice
My good buddy pogokat has kindly offered to give me a couple of evenings off from Link Report duty, although I may pop over with a comment or two. Enjoy his insights tonight, and catch you all in the AM with audio links, press reports and such. |

Hey, Cain inaugurates the resumption (finally) of the suspended game with a three-run bomb. Awesome.

The Stars are at it again, didn't they rough up Cubs prospect Donnie Veal earlier this season as well?

Cain was one of my faves last year - hopefully he puts it all together and has a big second half.

Huntsville lost on a walk-off homer. Would be nice if either Sandoval or Aguilar could get it together.

Nice game for Efrain Nieves: Four innings allowing only a leadoff triple in the 7th that scored on a WP. 4/0 K/BB.

The Santo Manzanillo from last season showed up tonight. Rough outing for the kid with 8 runs (6 earned) and 5 walks in 3 1/3 but his
teammates are doing their best for him. Efrain Nieves looking strong tonight. 4 innings of relief, 1 run, 1 hit, no walks, 4 strikeouts.
Pitcher turned first baseman Brock Kjeldgaad with home run # 4. Three hit nights for both Erik Komatsu and John
Delaney with Delaney adding his 2nd long ball of the season. David Fonseca has been returned to Helena and he celebrated with 2 hits
including a homer. Adam Arnold pitched the 9th to pick up his 3rd save.

Final: Helena 11, Missoula (D Backs) 10
Mass should get some news articles in the morning Helena Box Score Cutter Dykstra's 0-5 lowers his average about 50 points...which goes to remind that it's really way to early to try and derive any thing from the stats these guys are throwing out Helena Game Log You should probably avert your eyes from the bottom of the 4th here..

Final: Memphis (St. Louis) 3, Nashville 2
Redbirds Stage Late Rally To Defeat Sounds Date Posted: 7/2/2008 Link MEMPHIS, Tenn. - The Memphis Redbirds plated a pair of runs in the seventh inning to register a 3-2 victory over the Nashville Sounds on Wednesday evening at AutoZone Park. Seven Memphis hurlers held the Sounds to a season-low four hits on the evening. The Sounds grabbed a 2-0 lead in the top of the third inning. Hernan Iribarren doubled with one out to chase rehabbing Memphis starter Anthony Reyes from the contest. Two batters later, Vinny Rottino ripped a two-out RBI single off Hugo Castellanos to plate the game's first run. Brendan Katin added a run-scoring double later in the frame, which extended the outfielder's season-best hitting streak to seven games. Memphis got on the board in the bottom of the fifth when Sounds starter Mark DiFelice hit Rico Washington with a pitch with the bases loaded and two outs. DiFelice allowed one run on three hits over five innings in his first start since returning to the Sounds and took a no-decision. The Redbirds rallied to grab the lead in the seventh against Nashville reliever Ben Howard. Jarrett Hoffpauir led off with a double and scored the tying run two batters later on a Washington RBI single. Joe Mather gave the home team a 3-2 advantage later in the frame with a two-out RBI single to left that plated Washington. Mark Worrell retired the Sounds in order in the eighth before Kelvin Jimenez worked a 1-2-3 ninth to notch his sixth save of the year for the Redbirds. Memphis reliever Ron Flores (2-3) worked a scoreless inning to earn the victory, while Howard (2-4) took the loss for the Sounds after giving up two runs in his 1 1/3 frames of action. The teams wrap up the series with a 7:05 p.m. finale on Thursday evening. Left-hander Lindsay Gulin (4-4, 3.15) will make the start for Nashville. Memphis will counter with right-hander Clayton Mortensen (2-1, 3.42). Nashville Box Score Mark Difelice unleashes just his second walk of the entire season in the majors or minors Nashville Game Log

Final: Tennessee (Cubs) 6, Huntsville 5 Smokies Rally From Early Deficit for Comeback Win By Brett Pollock / Huntsville Stars Link Doug Deeds' two-run walk-off home run with two outs in the bottom half of the ninth inning lifted Tennessee to a dramatic 6-5 comeback win over Huntsville Wednesday night in the third of a four-game set at Smokies Park. The Smokies won their second straight to lift their second half record to a league-best 11-4, while the Stars slipped to 7-8 in the half and 48-37 overall. It was the Stars' fourth walk-off loss of the year. Juan Sandoval, who had entered the ninth inning having thrown 13 1/3 straight shutout frames retired the first two hitters before Matt Craig singled to left and was lifted for a pinch-runner. Deeds took a first pitch strike and then launched a long, high home run onto the grassy berm area in right field for his fourth hit of the night and seventh long ball. It was the second time Sandoval has surrendered a walk-off home run on the road this season. Alcides Escobar led off the seventh with an infield single, moved to second base on an Angel Salome ground out and scored on a Matt LaPorta single with two outs to give the Stars the lead back at 5-4. Steve Bray gave up one-out singles to Deeds and Nate Spears in the bottom of the inning but got Mark Reed to ground into an inning-ending double play to keep the visitors on top. Freddy Parejo started the game with a single, moved to second base on an Escobar sacrifice bunt and scored on a two-out single by Salome, who has driven in a run in eight of his last 12 games. Chris Errecart's lead off home run in the second, his second of the season against Donnie Veal, pushed the Huntsville lead to 2-0. Parejo and Escobar kept the inning going with singles and scored on a double by Mat Gamel that made it 4-0 Stars. Veal then settled down and blanked the Stars over the next three frames on one hit and departed allowing nine hits, walking one and not recording a strikeout. Veal had lost each of his five prior starts against Huntsville, dating back to last season. The Smokies scored an unearned run in the second inning and crept to within 4-3 with a pair of runs in the fifth against Donovan Hand on a run-scoring triple by Matt Camp, who then came in on a scoring fly ball to shallow right field by Tyler Colvin, the current hitter of the week in the league. Hand was lifted after five frames, allowing two earned runs on six hits, while walking four and fanning one. The Huntsville-area native is still searching for his first win after eight appearances, including seven starts. Bray took over in the sixth and gave up a two-out single to Camp that plated Reed, who had singled to start the inning, with the tying run. Bray gave up a run on four hits over his two innings and was followed by David Johnson, who set down the side in order in the eighth. The series wraps up on Thursday night with right-hander Nic Ungs taking the hill for Huntsville against Smokies' right-hander Alex Maestri. Coverage of the game begins at 6:00 pm central time and can be heard locally on SportsRadio 730 WUMP and through the internet at www.huntsvillestars.com and www.730ump.com. This story was not subject to the approval of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues or its clubs. Huntsville Box Score Gamel now has 31 doubles...He and Alcides are both on pace for 200 hits...Gamel could reach 230-240.. Huntsville Game Log

Final (Completion of Game 1): BC 9, Jupiter (Marlins) 5
This game was the completion of yesterday's game---naturally, the regularly scheduled game did not get played. Brevard County Box Score Lucroy is having a truly awesome first month in BC. Im getting to the point where I'm not so sure that he's not the best catching prospect in the system. All things equal, take the guy that projects the best as a catcher. Lorenzo Cain deserves to be in Huntsville. Brevard County Game Log
