Going back to last week, the Greensboro Grasshoppers’ Liover Peguero has hit home runs on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and then today he homered twice, so he did it twice on Sunday…Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and twice on Sunday…Almost like every day of the week, and then twice on Sunday…..Solid day for the Hoppers’ Andres Alvarez at the plate on Sunday, with Alvarez going 3-3, with a HR, and 2 runs scored….
Hoppers’ hitters from Sunday:Matt Frazier 0-4/BB/Run…Frazier finished the game batting a team-leading .317…Liover Peguero 2-4/BB/2 HR’s/3 Runs…Seven runs scored over the past two days/games for Peguero…Nick Gonzales 2-4/BB/Double/RBI…Blake Sabol 1-5/Double/Run…LoLo Sanchez 0-2/2 BB’s/2 SB’s…Aaron Shackleford 1-3/BB…Andres Alvarez 3-3/BB/HR/2 Runs….
Peguero with the two Hopper Homers on Sunday, now has 11 HR’s for the season, and the home run by Alvarez on Sunday, was his second of the season…
Peguero’s four RBI take him to 32 for the season, Alvarez had his fifth RBI of the year, and Nick Gonzales drove in a run with his fourth-inning double, and Gonzales now has 20 RBI, for 2021….LoLo Sanchez’ two stolen bases, takes him up to 24 stolen bags/bases for this season…..
Solid start from the Greensboro Grasshoppers’ Tahnaj Thomas on Sunday, as the Hoppers opening pitcher went five innings, allowing three runs on six hits, with one walk, and five strikeouts…The Hoppers got solid bullpen work on Sunday from John Colton/Bear Bellomy, Michell Miliano, and Will Kobos…As a staff, the Hopper pitcher walked six Dash batters, and struck out eleven…
Using six different pitchers, the WS Dash pitching staff walked seven Hopper batters, and struck out 15 Hoppers on Sunday…The Grasshoppers come out of Sunday’s game looking pretty darn good, having just won the Six-Game home stand with the WS Dash, 5-1, and now the Hoppers lead the 18-game overall Season-Series, 11-7…..
