Two-Hitter from the Greensboro Grasshoppers’ pitching staff on Sunday:
Hoppers pitching was tough on Sunday, with Bubba Chandler getting the start and going 5 Innings, allowing 0 Runs, on 1 Hit, with 1 BB/6 K…Very solid start from Chandler, and then the bullpen was near flawless, as the Hoppers relied on one inning each from Jack Carey, Santiago Florez, Mitchell Miller and Eddy Yean…Florez gave up the lone run of the game, and he was the only pitcher from the pen on Sunday that gave up a hit…Pitching getting the job done on Sunday for the Greensboro Grasshoppers…
Hitting was out there in full force on Sunday too…Will Matthiessen was 2-5/HR/RBI with his 10th home run of the season, a solo shot in the Hoppers’ four-run fifth inning…Hoppers’ new-comer Jack Brannigan from the Bradenton Marauders went 2-5/Double/Run/RBI…Leadoff Batter Francisco Acuna goes 2-5/Double/BB/RBI/Run…Big day for LF Luke Brown as he had two Doubles going 2-3/2 Doubles/2 BB’s/Run…Jase Bowen was going 1-5/Triple/Run/2 RBI…Bowen now up to 68 RBI for the season, and Will Matthiessen now has 42 RBI…Sammy Siani was 1-5/Run/SB…Shawn Ross was 1-4/Run…Catcher Wyatt Hendrie went 0-3/BB/HBP/Run…
**********The Grasshoppers scored Eight runs, and Eight different Hoppers scored runs on Sunday…**********
++++++++++The Hoppers had plenty of chances to score, as they were 4-16 with Runners in Scoring Position, and the Grasshoppers left 11 men on base…++++++++++
(The two errors by the Blue Rocks did not do them any favors either.)
