1 00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Today's June twenty third, and this is big Fish Small Pot. 2 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: I'm at you word all your host here at the 3 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:12,879 Speaker 1: Fisherrups podcast network on Wednesday's end Fridays and we can 4 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: get started fast. Talk about yesterday. Get you ready for 5 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:21,280 Speaker 1: tonight's game. So yesterday, June twenty second, it started pretty 6 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: early for the Marlins organization as the Jupiter Hammerheads had 7 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 1: a game at eleven am. Gary Perez was the starter. 8 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,880 Speaker 1: The eighteen year old was hit hard for the first 9 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: time really in his professional career. He didn't have a 10 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: feel for his fastball and the gamer so it appeared, 11 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: but he still managed to work some counts in his 12 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: favor and generate some strikeouts with a curveball that was 13 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: still effective even without the fastball. He held back the 14 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: Bradonton batters and recorded three strikeouts with the final line 15 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: of two innings pitched four hits, five earned runs, four walks, 16 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: and three strikeouts two home runs. Yery Perez did not 17 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: look the part of future ace. Yesterday we saw a 18 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: bit of what his floor as a player is. Without 19 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: his fastball, which in the mid nineties is a real 20 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: tool to keep batters honest, he was still able to 21 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: find glimmers of effective pitching. Yesterday was a bump in 22 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: his development and on the whole, Jupiter Hammer had team 23 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: had a rough baseball morning fall into the Marauders fifteen 24 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: to two as the team struggled to hit and the 25 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 1: only effective pitcher was the recently demoted Joey Steele, who 26 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: put off the Marauders on the mound with five strikeouts 27 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: in one walk and two and a third shutout innings. 28 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: Up a level in Beloit, Antonio Velez got the start 29 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: as the twenty four year old former FSU pitcher was 30 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: set for a matchup against the highly talented Asa Lacey, 31 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: the fourth overall pick in the twenty twenty draft. The 32 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: Marlins went with the local prospect against this COVID talent. Snapper. 33 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: Bats got to see the best and as the game 34 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: got underway, the Snappers were quick, with the Bets hitting 35 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: two singles in the first before Griffin Conine took Lacy 36 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: deep for his twelfth home run of the year, which 37 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: put Beloy to head and the offense would not rill 38 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: in as they continued to score. Connor Scott and a 39 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: double by will Banfield seat of Cameron Meisner for an 40 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: RBI grind out and a team effort helped push across 41 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: two more runs across the next two innings. Antonio Vales 42 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: took the four runs and put up five shutout innings 43 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: of his own, paired with five strikeouts in one walk, 44 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 1: allowing just one hit as the Snappers gave the fourth 45 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: overall pick his fourth loss in twenty twenty one. In Pensacola, 46 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: Will Stewart started and was solid, pitching five and two 47 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: thirds innings, eighty seven pitches and painting a realistic pitcher 48 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: of a starting pitcher. It's a transition from him from 49 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: the bullpen, but it looks as though he can hold 50 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: onto a game, as the only real damage against him 51 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: came on two pitches, with two home runs hitting him hard, 52 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: but he was able to settle it down between those 53 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: high points for the Birmingham offense, while the lowest scoring 54 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 1: offense in Double A South Division, the blueja Who's did 55 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: manage to score four runs. Victor Mesa returned to the lineup. 56 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: The Cuban prospect has been out since May twelfth with 57 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: an ankle injury. He didn't reach base on the night, 58 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: neither to JJ Blodey, but Peyton Burdick's tenth homer put 59 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: the Blue wah Who's ahead. In the third inning, will 60 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: azarro Alonzo scored the wing run on a ground out. 61 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: In the seventh, a one to. 62 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 2: Zero pitch, Verdick swings high fly hammered out towards right center. 63 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: I'm the rod Booker. He's out a room that's on 64 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 2: the bur I'm a home run opposite way for Burdick 65 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: to nothing. The Wahoo shall leave the Barns. Big Fish 66 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: Small Pod is brought to you by three oh five Candles. 67 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 2: Get ten percent off your entire order at three oh 68 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: five candles dot com with discount code fish stripes. 69 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: In Jacksonville, Jordan Holloway made his fourth consecutive start in 70 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: Triple A. Early in the season, he was a spot 71 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: starter for the Marlins, and last night he faced the 72 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 1: Durham Bulls. As the Bulls collectively got more looks at 73 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: Jordan Holloway, the results faded after poor contact in the 74 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: first helped him navigate around a pair of walks. A 75 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: lockdown second inning was followed by a whopping third inning. 76 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: The leadoff hitter hit a triple and that was paired 77 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: with some two out hits as the Bulls batters got 78 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: their second chance against Jordan Holloway. They scored four in 79 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: total look across the third and fourth innings. Jordan settled 80 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: down pitched into the sixth, but the Jumbo Shrimp offense 81 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: had an off night. After Brian Miller pushed across Chad 82 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: Wallack with a single, the bats were quiet. Jumbo Shrimp 83 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: would not score again and would not have a single 84 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: extra base hit on the night. As a couple of 85 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: their former offensive leaders have since been promoted to the 86 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: major league club, this Jacksonville team finds itself in a 87 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: bit of a transition as looks for more production from 88 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: a different source well in Miami. Last night, the Marlins 89 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: brought the Bluebirds to Lone Depot Park, with George Springer 90 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: returning to the Blue Jays lineup for the first time 91 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: since May fifth, for just actually his fifth game in 92 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: a Blue Jay uniform. Both teams were looking to live 93 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,799 Speaker 1: up to preseason expectations as the Marlins sent Sandale contract 94 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: to face Ross Strip. Ross Stripling has had a working 95 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: of late last week, striking out nine Yankees with an 96 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: effective mix of pitches, but with Sandy on the mound, 97 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: the Marlins seemed to have at least an on paper advantage. 98 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 1: The game started out briskly as Sandy struck out Marcus Simeon, 99 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: then retired the duo of lad and Bow on three 100 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: pitches in the bottom of the first. Ross Stripling was dealing, 101 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: as he would go on to limit the Marlins offense 102 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: to just one run in six innings. He let off names, 103 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: striking out Haesu's Aguilar after Jazz was retired and Sterling 104 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: Martey failed to bunt his way on in the second. 105 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: Jesus Sanchez, who has now reached his twenty twenty at 106 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,559 Speaker 1: bat total with twenty five at bats, has distinctly shown 107 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: better results this time around at the majors in twenty 108 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: twenty one, and in the second inning of last night's game, 109 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: he hit his second home run of the year to 110 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: put Miami ahead. While Sandy boter through the Blue Jays lineup. 111 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: It wasn't until the sixth in name that Toronto pushed 112 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: one across as Bobachett was hit by a pitch, stole 113 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: his wait a second, then advanced a third on a 114 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: wild pitch. Vladimir Guerrera Junior came up and took the 115 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: first strike he saw for a single to tie the game. 116 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: Throughout the night, the Marlins were held the three hits. 117 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: Jazz Chisholm was particularly left frustrated after an early innings 118 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: that bat with two apparent missed calls gone for strikes 119 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: helped hold him hitless. Sandy was done after eight innings 120 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: of work as the Marlins turned to the bullpen to 121 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: close down the Blue Jays the game tied one to one. 122 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: Looking to brood the gap between the top of the 123 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: ninth and the bottom of the ninth and potentially into extras, 124 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: the Marlins sent Yeami Garcia to the mound, who recorded 125 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: two strikeouts, but only after the damage had been done, 126 00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: as consecutive doubles put the Marlins behind for the first 127 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: time of the night. Down to their last three outs, 128 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: Starling Marte reached to lead out the inning with a 129 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: soft hit single, and he was caught stealing on his 130 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: way to second, put the Marlins down and out and 131 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: reverse momentum in a night that would end with a 132 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: whimper for Marlins. As the Marlins lost another one run 133 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: game thanks to a low scoring offense and a bullpen 134 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: that could not shut it down. The game time was 135 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: a risk two hours and thirty four minutes and now 136 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: Miami will turn to Trevor Rodgers to try to even 137 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: the series, facing Robbie ray Worth. Note also on the 138 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: day yesterday, the Marlins did not offer any further clarification 139 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: on posts made by Starling Marte on Instagram that were 140 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: from late Monday, end of it has been deleted. They 141 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: depicted an act of animal cruelty, and well Marte was 142 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: not a participant, just reposting such an act. Perhaps this 143 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 1: intended joke could be grounds for better understanding between the Marlins, Marte, 144 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: and the fans. Anyways, I'm a t whard all. This 145 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: has been big Fish, Small Pod. We'll be back with 146 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: you tomorrow and at Fish Stripes will have the latest 147 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: in game coverage leading up to that seven to ten 148 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: start time.
