Blue Wahoos Drop To Barons
April 22, 2015
Despite a pair of home runs from Seth Mejias-Brean and Jesse Winker, the Pensacola Blue Wahoos (3-7) fell to the Birmingham Barons (5-6) Tuesday night at Regions Field 8-4. RHP Tim Adleman threw five scoreless innings until giving up five hits and four runs in the sixth.
Pensacola was unable to capitalize on 11 hits in the tilt as nine runners were left on base.
In the first inning, Ryan Wright hit his second triple of the year and scored off of Jesse Winker’s ground ball to right field. The Wahoos had four hits in the second inning. Seth Mejias-Brean scored off of a single by Wright to give the Wahoos a 2-0 lead. The Wahoos had scored in six straight innings at that point, but did not score in the third inning to extend the streak.
Mejias-Brean started the sixth inning with a home run to left field. This was his first home run since August 8, 2014 when Pensacola beat Jackson 5-1.
Until the sixth inning, Adleman had thrown 14.1 scoreless innings in three starts. The Barons started the fourth inning with two singles, two doubles and three runs. At that point, RHP Chad Rogers began to warm-up in the bullpen. Adleman got two more batters out but then allowed another run. Rogers came into the game with two on and two outs and halted the Barons’ bats as Joey DeMichele flew out to right field.
Rogers went back in the seventh inning and got all three batters out. In four appearances, he has allowed two hits and no runs in 3.2 innings of work.
RHP Kevin Shackelford came into the game in the eighth inning and gave up four earned runs, three hits and two walks in only 0.1 innings of work. RHP Drew Hayes came into the game with bases loaded. Adrian Nieto scored on Tim Anderson’s one-run singles but the run was charged to Shackelford.
Winker, the Reds No. 2 prospect, hit his first home run of the year in the ninth inning to make the final score 8-4.
J.B. Wendelken got the win for the Barons and Nolan Sanburn got his second save of the year. Adleman got his second loss of the year despite a 0-2 record and a 2.70 ERA in three starts.
The two teams will square off Wednesday in Birmingham.
