    Touki through 4 now. Still no runs, 3 hits, one BB, one HBP, and 2 Ks. Did a good job escaping after a leadoff double and HBP.

    nothing like a sac fly double play at home to get Touki out of the 4th still up 1-0....

    only thing more exciting would be if it was on opening day to end the game against your big rivals.. but that would never happen right..

    After getting a pop out and a K in the 5th, Touki gave up a single followed by a HR. He rallied to K the next batter. He's through 5 now, 2 R (both earned), 5 H, 1 HR, 1 BB, 4 Ks.

    Acuna continue to impress with a triple, single and stolen base so far today. Now hitting .301. Only 18.

    1 BB and 1 HBP.. they pulled him after 5 innings and only 70 something pitches. Really taking it easy with him. But still a good start to build on after his previous start. I was hoping for one more inning out of him. and I forgot it is only a 7 inning game.

    Touki through after 5. Gave up the dinger, but only walked one while striking out 4. I don't like the 41/31 strike-to-ball ratio, but has 2-2 on the GO/AO. Baby steps.

    Touki is definitely still learning how to pitch. He's got an enormous ceiling but he could take a very, very long time to get here.

    man.. Caicedo can't close it out for Touki... he got himself in trouble with a throwing error on a bunt that put runners on 2nd and 3rd w/ no outs.. but got a grounder to get the guy out at home.. a K to make it 2 outs.. then a single to allow the tying run to score.. man.. tough luck..

    Acuna Matata.

    Scores the winning run in the bottom of the seventh on a single by Jonathan Morales.

    Acuna with another steal to set that up. why they pitched to Morales is beyond me.

    But Rome has been playing much better lately. Can't wait for Allard to get there...

    His defense in center is supposed to be pretty good. Imo he's one of three position prospects in our farm system with a good chance to be an above average ML regular. Oz and Swanny being the other two.

    I read an article that said Allard will likely start in June but that it will be at Danville. That's interesting, but hopefully they're just planning to have him there for 2-3 starts and then move him to Rome, assuming everything looks good.
