Back to .500...

Monday morning and it's raining on the Cape again! I feel like we should be playing the season on Noah's Ark!!

Supposed to be heading down to Falmouth tonight for a 7 PM game, weather permitting. Jorge Reyes, Oregon State, and a draft pick of the Padres earlier in the month, will be making his first start of the summer. He pitched at Falmouth last summer.

The 'Birds had a nice win against Chatham last night, 2-1. Jimmy Reyes, our lefty from Elon, was outstanding, and Jeremy Gould from Duke made a game-saving catch in the 9th with two men on to help preserve the victory. With men on 1st and 2nd and one out, he ran a ball down in the right-centerfield gap, and then almost doubled the guy off first! A pop-up to 3B ended the game.

Alex Hassan made his "closing" debut last night. Great to see him back on the mound after an oblique injury, late in the season at Duke, sidelined him for awhile.

Going to mix up the line-up tonight. Steve Selsky (Arizona) and Riccio Torrez (ASU) will make their debuts for the Firebirds tonight. Steve came over from YD a couple of days ago, and Riccio just arrived from Omaha. Excited to see these two play!

Hopefully we will get this one in tonight.
