DH Tyler Moore
LF Matt Tuiasosopo
1B Blake Lalli
C Ryan Lavarnway
3B Rio Ruiz
RF Chase d'Arnaud

P Jhoulys Chacin

Ruiz batting 8th seems a little odd. Maybe they're trying to send him a message.

 

[Julio3000]

Riley 2-2 with a 2B for Rome.

 

[CJ9]

Riley 2-2 with a 2B for Rome.

The double was just a ground ball up the third base line. He smoked the single though, Acuna scored easily from second.

I'm blown away by Soroka. He looks really, really good.

Crazy that Soroka has been so overlooked

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Checking the box scores, Rome is off to a great start tonight.

 

[Braves1976]

Sims walked first batter in Mississippi, hit second batter on an 0-2 pitch, then struck out the next batter on three pitches and struck out the side in short order.

 

[Braves1976]

Mallex Smith is 1-3 with a triple so far, scored only run in a 1-0 game through six innings. Chacin having a strong debut for G-Braves before joining rotation in Atlanta.

 

[CJ9]

Final line for Soroka: 4 IP, 4 H, 1 ER/R, 1 BB, 7 K.

 

[Hudson2]

I'm gonna see alot of Mississippi's games this year and I'll video several of Albies at bats and Sims and Newcomb pitching for yall.

 

[Braves1976]

Swanson singled his first AB for Carolina tonight and is now 1-3 in a game Carolina is losing big, 11-3. Albies just lined out his first AB for Mississippi.

 

[Braves1976]

Checking the box scores, Rome is off to a great start tonight.

Top three in their line up is Acuna, Morales and Riley and they all three have milti-hit games. So does Ellison and Didder too. Acuna also stole a base.

 

[Braves1976]

Chacin went almost a full 8 innings, 7.2 scoreless for G-Braves tonight. Swanson just got his first extra base hit for Carolina, an RBI double making him 2-4 in a losing effort for Carolina. Albies is 0-2 so far in Mississippi (line out to CF, ground out). Mallex Smith just doubled to leadoff 9th for G-Braves giving them a shot at adding an insurance run. Smith has a triple and double tonight and scored the only run so far (make that 2 runs scored for Mallex as it's now 2-0 G-Braves in 9th).

Also, for any interested in Astudillo like me, he lined out his only AB and threw out a runner trying to steal second so far.

 

[UNCBlue012]

This minor league season is going to be so awesome. Sims has looked way better from what I was able to see. His fastball looks crisp.

 

[ball4life32]

Rome Braves win 10-1.
CF Ronald Acuna 2-5 2RBI SB
DH Jonathan Morales 2-5 RBI
3B Austin Riley 3-5 2B RBI
C Lucas Herbert 1-4 RBI
LF Justin Ellison 2-3

Mike Soroka 4 IP, 4H, 1R, 1BB, 7K

 

[Orphan Black]

Sims has 9Ks thru 5

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Sims has 9Ks thru 5

WOW!! hopefully they can push a couple across and win it for him

 

[Orphan Black]

WOW!! hopefully they can push a couple across and win it for him

he just got a base hit too

 

[jsebe10]

I'm curious...

Why is Swanson in A Ball with Carolina right now? Doesn't he certainly seem ahead of his development??

They seem to be avoiding the who plays short question between him and Albies.

I mean that's understandable, but I was thinking more towards Mississippi.
