Springfield didn't look too bad. I realize they were held in check at the plate but Dallas Braden is a AAA pitcher at worst. He led the minors in wins in 2005 and was here a couple months last season before being sent up. He won't be here long. He had off-season surgery which is why Oakland started him in Midland.
Parisi was supposed to start for Springfield, but apparently he tweaked his hamstring since the team arrived in Midland.
Mather's HR was a BOMB, they have a good team, but this RockHounds team has some pretty good talent and some decent minor league players surrounding the prospects.

On the Mexican league front Amuary Marti hit a home run last night and in two games with his Mexican team he is hitting .500 with 5 RBI.
The other loaned player from the Cards, RP Russ, was a good news bad news story. The good news is he got teh win last night, the bad news is he blew the save giving up 2 runs in the 9th to get it.

Second game, Springfield vs Midland
Lambert looked good today, but it was about 30 degrees outside with a 15 MPH wind blowing in and drizzle about 1/2 of the game. The Cardinals scored one in the 7th and 2 in the 8th to take a 3-run lead into the ninth. Chris Perez came in to close and gave up a hit and a walk after getting the first man out. Brian Snyder came up, who was with us the first part of last season and is TERRIBLE at hitting outside pitches. So on a 3-1 pitch Perez tries to go on the outside part of the plate and Snyder hits it the other way (now the wind is blowing out to right) and hits a HR to tie the game 3-3 (way to go Izzy)<<<<sarcasm.
Springfield went quietly in the 10th and the 'Hounds got a base hit to start the 10th and then a chopper over Mather's head and then the ball rolled under Jay's glove for the winning run to cross the plate from 1st.
It was freezing tonight and it had to be tough to stay warm, especially inbetween at bats, so I'm not sure how clear this game was, but it was very exciting, mostly for the front office who were about the only people that were still there

You are correct, it was Gorecki, he was charging the ball as it was coming towards him and he just didn't have his glove all the way down on the ground and th ball rolled under it.
By the end of the game last night it was coming down fairly well. I wouldn't put too much on any player in this game. It was miserable out there, I'm sure everyone was just happy to get warm.
As for todays game, we put the tarp on after last night's game and we have gotten a lot of sleet over night. I had about 1/4 inch of ice on my car coming to the stadium this morning so the tarp is now frozen on the field, and with the way the weather looks, I highly doubt we have baseball tonight.
So good luck to Springfield the rest of the year and we will see them when they come back to start the second half of the season in June
