Oct 7th
FireFrogs drop 5 of 6 to the division leading Angels Wednesday night. I think somebody forgot to tell my dice that I was rolling for me this time and not the Tornadoes.
Game 1: Kyle Hendricks vs. Domingo German. Great start. Juan Soto leads off the game with a triple, Galvis strikes out, Rosario grounds out scoring Soto, and Cano makes an out to finish the first. The Angels score one in the 2nd on a solo shot by Santana. They score 3 more in the 4th on a double, single, and another Santana homer. The Frogs would get one run closer in the 7th on a lead off double by Brandon Lowe and an Omar Narvaez RBI single. The Angels however teed off on Rich Rodriguez in the bottom of the 7th scoring 5 runs on 2 walks and 3 homers. Final tally; FireFrogs 2, Angels 9.
Game 2: Noah Syndergaard vs. Zack Eflin. Both pitchers would go the distance in this one, but for different reasons. Neither team does much in the first 4 innings as COMBINED there is only ONE hit. Turner would walk in the 2nd, attempt to steal 1st, Martin needs less than 25 to get him, he rolls a 22. Taylor gets on in the 2nd on a fielders choice, Martin needs 24 or less to get him, he rolls an 11. Taylor singles in the 5th, Martin can't get lucky again, can he? He needs less than 24, he rolls a 15! The consolation here, he rolled 3 great hit numbers and didn't get a single hit out of it, but I got caught stealing 3 times in one game. Biggio would lead off the 4th with a single. Eflin didn't have very good control, but that didn't matter as the Frogs were swinging at the garbage he was throwing. The Frogs finally get a hit in the 5th and their final hit comes in the 7th. They did manage to walk 5 times over the course of the game, but only 2 hits to go with them is not a winning recipe. Syndergaard on the other hand was magnificent through 6. He gave up 3 hits, no walks, and only 1 run. The 7th was a totally different game though. The Angels send 11 to the plate, scoring 6 runs on a walk, double, 3 HR's, a single, and an error by the shortstop (I've seen this in some of the Tuesday night softball games). 4 of the 6 runs scored were unearned. The Angels would add to the misery with a single run in the 8th, but hey, who's gonna notice? Final tally; FireFrogs ZERO, Angels 8
Game 3: Zach Davies vs. Garret Richards. This one was a close one. The Angels started fast with a pair of runs in the bottom of the 1st, but it took the Frogs till the 4th before they were able to break the ice. At the end of 5, the score is 4-3 in favor of the Angels. Trea Turner was burning up the bases when he stole 2nd and 3rd in the 5th inning, scoring on a throwing error by the catcher during the steal of 3rd. Nothing big or exciting happened outside of that. Final Tally; FireFrogs 3, Angels 4.
Game 4: Ferris Buehler vs Garret Cole. FireFrogs jump out in the first with a leadoff homer by Turner. The Angels score one in the top of the 4th to tie it. Frogs get it right back with an Urshela single, Santander double, and another RBI ground out from Rosario. Angels tie it again in the top of the 7th with a solo homer off the bat of Manny Pina. The Frogs again reclaim the lead with a couple of singles and a Narvaez SF in the bottom half. The Angels however would not stop as they plated single runs in both the 8th and 9th to take a 4 - 3 lead. The Frogs would get their lead-off man on via a walk, but the next two would strike out before Lowe hits a deep fly to right to end the game. The Frogs have now dropped 4 in a row to the Angels. Only hitting 1 HR to this point has definite comparisons to the excellent rolling I did while managing the Tornadoes. Highlight though, Cole struck out 15 Angels in this one to run his season count to 205.
Game 5: Michael Pineda vs. Hyun-Jin Ryu. Turner leads off the bottm of the first with a single, stolen base, and scores on Juan Soto's single. The Angels Jonathan Schoop hits a solo HR in the 5th to tie it. Trea Turner leads off the 11th with a single and his 39th steal of the year. Jake Cave, pinch hitting for Liam Hendriks strikes out. Gio Urshela comes through with a walk off homer (roll of 33, PRN 5, with a runner on second) to end the game with a FireFrog victory! Hendriks pitches 3 scoreless/hitless innings of relief to earn the victory in this one. Ryu still has only given up 6 walks in 111+ innings over 15 starts. I really like that ZZ.
Game 6: Kyle Hendricks vs. Domingo German. Angels score 2 in the first and add a solo HR in the 6th. The FireFrogs scratch a run in the 5th on a pair of singles, a ground out, and, well, nothing else really. The only other Frog hit came with one out in the 7th and was Robinson Cano's second hit of the game. The Frogs lose yet another game, this time it 3 - 1.
Facts:
Other than Rich Rodriguez, the pitching did ok. Team ERA for the series was 4.08, not bad for all the hitting that Martin has.
Garrett Cole struck out 15 Angels over 9 innings of work. Domingo German struck out 13, over 2 starts and 12 innings.
No STARTER got a single victory in this series! Liam Hendriks, a reliever, got the only win.
The Angels hit 13 HR's off Frog pitching, scoring only 29 runs in the process. They did THEIR job.
The FireFrogs managed one more hit (30) that runs that the Angels scored (29).
The Frog bats were extremely quiet. How quiet you ask? They hit only 10 extra base hits (7 DBL, 1 TRP, & 2HR). The Frogs rolled a total of ONE 66 in this series, and that was a lead-off homer for Trea Turner.
When you hit only .160, barely make double digit extra base hits, score just 12 runs over six games, you don't deserve to win (unless this is the 1968 season).
Pathetic, simply pathetic. Then again, the number 2 overall pick in the 2021 draft could make me feel a whole lot better.
March 16th
The red-hot Sultans visited the FireFrogs today. The Sultans come into this series leading the SCBL in winning percentage only to drop 4 of 6 to the luke warm Firefrogs.
The Frogs were fully anticipating getting their respective asses handed to them, but maybe this is what they needed.
Playoff pressure has been lifted for the time being and the boys are starting to look a little more at ease. This is what the season was SUPPOSED to look like!!
The Frogs lowered their team ERA under 5.0 again by holding the Sultans to just 17 runs in 6 games, 2 of those were unearned.
The Sultans only hit .224 in the series compared to the frogs .284. Better yet, the Frogs pushed 31 runs across home plate on 58 hits, 9 of them left the yard.
Game 1
Noah Syndergaard takes the mound against John Means. Michael Taylor gets a very rare start against the — lefty and rewards the Frogs with a 3 for 5 performance,
driving in 1 and scoring a run. Austin Romine contributed 3 hits of his own to allow Syndergaard to cruise to a 5 — 0, 2 hit shutout of the Sultans.
Urshela was hit his 7th homer of the season in this one as the Frogpen took the day off.
Game 2
The Frogs would send 8 men to the plate in the first inning, plating 4 runs to stake Domingo German to an early lead.
It would not last though as the Sultans came storming back in the second with 5 runs of their own and sending 9 men to the plate.
If you showed up in the 3rd inning for this one, you missed all the action as neither team would score again in the game.
German and the Sultan starter Clevenger managed to stick around for 6 complete before leaving it to the pens.
Rosario, Turner, and Cron would each collect a couple of hits apeace, but none of them would leave the playing field.
Game 3
Zack Davies would take the bump for the Frogs in this one. Opposing him, Jose Quintana.
Juan Soto turned in a rare performance going 4 for 4 with a walk, a double, and a run scored.
Trea Turner would contribute a couple of hits of his own along with 2 stolen bases and a pair of runs scored.
The Frogs would enjoy 8 1/3 shutout innings from Davies as they would defeat the Sultans 6-1, the only run coming on an error.
Hendricks would come in with the bases loaded to shut down the Sultans threat for his 8th save of the season.
Game 4
AHHH, back home again and Garrett Cole takes the mound, this should be good. Well, maybe not that good.
Cole would strike out 13 Sultans, of course he would also give up a pair of walks and 9 hits too.
All this would result in the Sultans hitting a HR (Lindor) and scoring 5 runs in 7 innings as they hold on to win it 5-3.
C J Cron collected a pair of hits, one a solo HR, as the Frogs tried to make it interesting late scoring single runs in the 6th, 8th, and 9th innings.
Cole takes the loss, his 6th.
Game 5
Back to Syndergaard and his domination of the Sultans. Steven Matz tries to get the Sultans back on a winning streak in this one.
The Frogs would go in order for the first two innings, but then again, the Sultans didn’t fair much better.
This game was all about the mighty Thor, as Syndergaard would run his scoreless inning streak against the Sultans to 16 2/3 innings before they were able to get to him.
In addition to this, Steve Matz would walk Cron to get to Syndergaard only to what Thor get the meat of his bat on one and deposit into the seats for 2–0 lead in the 3rd.
The Sultans would score single runs in the 7th and 9th innings, but would fall short losing this one 4 — 2.
Freddy Galvis would go 2 — 2 with a walk to try and grab some of the spotlight from Thor.
Game 6
For only the second time this season, the Frogs have a chance at winning a series. They would send Hyun-Jin Ryu to the mound opposing Miles MIkolas.
The Frogs scouting department reports show that Miles has a problem with left handed batters, so Trea Turner would get the day off as the line-up would be loaded with lefties.
The move would pay off as the Frogs would collect 12 hits and 9 runs in this laugher. Jake Cave led the parade going 4 for 5 (raising his average to .414 on the season),
a double, pair of runs, and 2 rbi’s to lead the way. Sharing the offensive spotlight, Narvaez would go 3 for 3 with a homer and a pair of rbi’s himself.
Ryu held the Sultans to just 4 runs in 7 innings, walking none (yet again), and striking out 8.
The best part of all this, the Sultans, the mighty, mighty Sultans, would only hit 5 home runs in the series...
APBA DAY March 7th
Success?
Day starts with Charlie. Typical season so far, Cole and Ryu combine to lose the first
two in the series. Game 3. Back and forth, game gets tied up late (7th or 8th, can’t
remember which). Stays tied to the 13th (ish) when with one out, Omar Narvaez singles to
put the winning run on first base. Omar is slow, so, I put Michael Taylor into the game
as a pinch runner (he is fast after all). Taylor B16 steal rating is perfect for this
situation. Charlie’s catcher is a th-4 and the pitcher is a +3. Taylor steals second.
Doing a little math, you add 5 and subtract 4, 16 or less to throw Taylor out at 3rd.
He’s off and steals 3rd. Doing that math thing again, add 15, subtract 4, 41 or less
to get Taylor at the plate. To hell with it, my team sucks right now anyway and I will
find some way to mess this up, SEND HIM! Dave says, "no Steve, you don’t wanna do that."
Martin agrees, and me? I still wanna send him. Charlie rolls…………. Wait for it………… 65! Boom,
Taylor steals home, GAME OVER! Rest of the day doesn’t matter.
Seriously though, I thought the season might be taking a turn to getting back to .500.
The Frogs managed to win the last 4 in this series, Cole wins his 3rd game of the season.
Got it figured out now, Cole strikes out 18 or more hitters, he wins. Yup, he did it
again for the 3rd time this season, striking out 18 Astros to win the final game of the
series.
The streak continued as the Frogs won the first game against the Storm and then
the old ways came back and we split this series 3-3. Only highlight in this series is
Rondon getting his 3rd and final scheduled start of the season goes 7+ shut out innings
before he gives up a homer to the Storm. Oberg and Garrett combine efforts to save the
game for him.
Trash can banging or not, the Frogs continue to lose as they drop 4 to the struggling
Trucks. At one point, the Frogs were shut out for 20 consecutive innings. They would
come out and score 5 runs in a victory following that stretch only to be shut down by
Tyler Glasnow in the final game as the Trucks abused Ryu pretty thoroughly. Oh well,
relative to the rest of the season, 9-9 on the day is a success?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Lizard Roundup
Ok, so first pitch was at 3:23 pm in the unfriendly confines of Crampton Yard. The
FireFrogs were looking make good on the promise of the draft and the frustration of the
draft day games. In game one, that happened, and it started very quickly. Turner
strikes out, then Walk, HR, BB, BB, fly out, 1B, HR, and K. 9 hitters, 2 hits, and 6
runs later the Frogs were off and scoring. Second inning would see 3 more runs, another
HR, and 8 more Frogs would make an appearance at the plate. Syndergaard would hold the
Lizards scoreless for 6 straight before giving up a 2 spot in the 7th. Final score,
Frogs 15 — Lizards 4. Both teams were in double digits in hits, Frogs win this one 18
-13. Darvish struck out 16 Frogs over 9 innings in the loss.
Game 2
Back to draft day rolling. Hector Rondon would last 3 innings on this bullpen game
giving up a run on 3 hits. Enter the rest of the pen. Rodriguez, 1IP 4H 3ER, Garrett
1IP 6H 5ER, Oberg comes on to shut down the Lizards offense, but it was to late as he and
Kela would combine to shut out and no hit the Lizards for the final 3 innings (or maybe
they were just all tired out). Final tally, FireFrogs score 1 run on 3 hits. Lizards 9
runs on 13 hits.
Game 3
Another game, another loss. German does relatively well for the first 3 frames before
falling apart in the 4th giving up 4 runs. The Frogs did out hit the Lizards, but they
just didn’t string together in the right order to out score the Lizards. Final tally,
Frogs 4 R 10 H 0E vs. Lizards 7 R 8 H 0E. Good game, never really out of it, just
couldn’t get that one hit at the right time.
Game 4
Garret Cole on the mound, OH %@$! This was heard very loudly coming from the visiting
Lizards dugout and for a real good reason. Cole brought his K game today. Lizards would
score single runs in the 2nd and 8th innings. Cole would scatter 6 hits over 8 2/3
innings, walking 3 while striking out 18, including the last 10 outs recorded. Hendricks
came on with 2 on and 2 out in the 9th to earn the save. The Frogs made it easy for Cole
scoring 3 in the 1st and a 4th run in the 2nd as they would cruise to an relatively easy
5-2 win. The Frogs out hit the Lizards again 10 - 6.
Game 5
Another Davies start, another great effort gone to waste. Davies held the Lizards to
just 1 run on 2 hits over 6 innings. The call goes to the arson squad (Bruce, you can
have your bullpen back now) to lose this one. Rondon 0IP 2H 2R, Garrett 1IP 0R, Berg 1
IP 2H 2ER, and Hedricks starting to figure out what he is doing pitching an inning
without giving up a hit. Final tally; Lizards 5R 6H 0E vs. Frogs 1R 5H 1E.
Game 6
Back to Syndergaard vs. Darvish. Frogs jump on Darvish quickly again scoring 3 in the
first, but they stopped there (WHY?!?!?). The Lizards tie up the game with a run in the
2nd and a pair in the 3rd. Score remained tied until the Lizards would plate a run in
the 7th. The Frogs would justify Michael Taylors roster spot in the 9th when Nick
Castellanos would single and give way to Taylor as a pinch runner. Taylor promptly
swiped 2nd as Realmuto just couldn’t get the throw off fast enough. Galvis struck out,
Narvaez popped it up, only to be followed by a Rosario single to plate Taylor. Score
tied to force a 10th inning. Lizards score one, will it be enough, this is the Frogs we
are talking about here. Turner draws a walk to start the inning and following Taylors
example, steals second (PRN 14*). Juan Soto up, PRN result an 8 against an A, move
Turner to 3rd with only one out. CJ Cron upto bat for Urshela as he replaced him for
defense in the top of the inning, and what does he roll, a stinking 12, PRN 25. And gosh
darn dilly dang freakin 12! Gary just happens to have Yolmer Sanchez in the game, a
stinkin’ 9 on defense. The boards say that the play should read 4-4-5, line drive
double play, game OVER! !$%#@^TEMPORARY_BODY_TAGamp; Lizards.
Lizards win 4 of 6 from the Frogs. Frogs season continues to look dismal. Oh, Well, it
is still just a game.
