Suarez pitching a gem through 5. 0 runs, 1 hit and 8 Ks.

[phillychuck]

Unfortunately, Lakewood's run-scoring slump continues, as they waste a lead-off double by Enmanuel Garcia in the 5th. Tied 0-0.

[flyers19rw]

7 IPs, 2 hits, 9Ks O runs. He's 21 years old. Might be a candidate for a jump up to Clearwater after the draft?

[schooldoc]

Your Lakewood BlueClaws SAL All Star representatives:

RHP Trevor Bettencourt
LHP Nick Fanti
LHP JoJo Romero
LHP Ranger Suarez
C Edgar Cabral

Interesting: Blake Rutherford made the SAL South team. Moniak did not make the SAL North team. They're very close statistically. Rutherford, FWIW, is also a full year older.

Rutherford: .280/.355/.394 with 1 HR, 18 RBI, 25 R and 9 SB in 47 g
Moniak: .275/.325/.409 with 2 HR, 22 RBI, 31 R and 5 SB in 51 g

[Squire]

Re: Lakewood today. I really hate when these games where the umps obviously have huge strike zones (14K on one side, 13K on the other) go into extra innings and everybody's OPS gets blown up. Pet peeve

[phillychuck]

Either the ump has a huge zone, or they're using aspirin tablets for baseballs. In the 15th now, 1-1.

[rkeden]

21 and 17 strikeouts respectively, midway through the 15th. Patrons ought to demand their money back.

[Squire]

Announced today......Aaron Brown is now a LHP, not an OF.

[schooldoc]

That's worth a try, if you're Brown. His final year ptiching at Pepperdine was outstanding.

[allentown]

I'm afraid it's too late for Brown as a Phillie. A really impressive thing about Suarez giving up no runs is that he survived 2 throwing errors by Gamboa.

[Philsmania]

Brown will need to go to XST & WPT while reinvents himself.

[schooldoc]

Pigs and Fightins both rained out.

[phillychuck]

CLW leading late. Grullon another HR.
