In-Game Updates (LIVE from the ballpark): I looked down for maybe a minute. Zach McAllister had finished his first inning by the time I looked up. 0-0, B1.
So um, this Tony Franklin guy…seems to be a good manager. Marcos Vechionacci was supposed to play game 1, but was scratched for Justin Snyder. Snyder hit a three run double in game one. Here in game two, Vechionacci just hit a solo homer to left field to give Trenton a 1-0 lead. 1-0, B3.
McAllister just got absolutely nailed by a line drive in the leg. You could hear it from up here. He seems to be fine, though.
Mister Clutch! Edwar Gonzalez scores on a P.J. Pilittere RBI double down the right field line. Thunder are up 2-0 now, B4. Rain is coming, though…
ONE OUT AWAY FROM AN OFFICIAL GAME. RAIN DELAY. THUNDER WERE UP 2-0.
1:03 PM, Sunday — Humberto Sanchez induces a pop-out to third, and we now have an official game…2-0 still, heading into B5.
Daniel McCutchen, big leaguer. Good for him.
Luke Hughes with a long, no doubt home run to deep center field off of Humberto Sanchez in the top of the 7th. Now, things are a bit precarious. 2-1, Thunder, one out, T7.
