Raccoons (50-43) @ Canadiens (52-39) – July 21-23, 2054

The Elks had dropped out of a tie for first place when the Loggers won over the Indians on Monday, these teams’ common off day. So they probably had to take it out on the Critters… who themselves were less than a pawful of games back and really wondering how the team could be turned into an actual winner. For now, they had to withstand the #1 offense in the league, with the fifth-fewest runs allowed for Elk City, and a +76 run differential (Critters: +43). We were up in the season series, though, a whopping 5-4.

Projected matchups:
Seisaku Taki (6-7, 3.55 ERA) vs. Jesse Bulas (7-4, 4.42 ERA)
Jason Wheatley (8-7, 3.71 ERA) vs. Anton Jesus (5-5, 3.83 ERA)
Rafael de la Cruz (1-2, 5.54 ERA) vs. Terry Herman (9-4, 2.89 ERA)

Three right-handers were lined up for either team. The Elks were without their middle infield of Tony Aparicio and Dan Mullen, but at least the latter was said to be close to returning.

I chose to grace the office with my presence during this series, which I couldn’t attend in person as per usual. Somehow nobody had expected me, because despite the team being on the road, the offense was littered with people. Cristiano Carmona’s roommate Gustaf was there, shirtless and oily as ever, and apparently it was the first annual Bring Your Niece to Work Day in Oregon, because Maud had her sister’s youngest, Crystal, in tow. At first she was filing her nails, but when Gustaf showed up, she was very much fascinated with his physique, with the amount of attention given not necessarily equal.

And because I couldn’t have anything nice, then Nick Valdes hit up in the office as well. What are you lot all doing here? You got something to celebrate?? Turned out, Nick was looking for me. My fault for asking for more dosh to make moves at the deadline. – Say, Nick, how did you know I was here? I could have been at home! – Why do you look at that thing in your paw and then say with such conviction that I’m not?

Game 1
POR: LF Crum – SS Lavorano – 1B Ramsay – C Gowin – RF Cox – 3B Venegas – CF Puckeridge – 2B Knight – P Taki
VAN: CF D. Moreno – 1B Wheeler – LF Magnussen – C Waker – RF A. Walker – 2B F. Marquez – SS Uranga – 3B A. Soto – P Bulas

The week began with Crum reaching on an error by Jeff Wheeler, but Lonzo doubled him up right away. Wheeler whacked a double in the bottom of the inning, however, and scored on Adam Magnussen’s single to put the Critters in an early hole. Tristan Waker hit another single before Aaron Walker popped out and Felix Marquez struck out to end the inning. The Raccoons failed to do anything with a Cox double in the second, and were generally not very impressive on offense, while Taki also held the Elks reasonably short as the 1-0 score persisted through four innings. In the fifth, a Jorge Uranga error put Matt Knight on second base to begin the frame. For normal teams, that was a scoring opportunity! Taki grounded out to short, though, leading to no advance for Knight, but Ken Crum crammed a hard bouncer through between Alex Soto and the third base bag for an RBI single, tying the game. Lonzo singled, but eager to get something going, the Coons went for the double steal, but had Crum thrown out at third base and didn’t score any more runs in the inning. – See, Nick, that’s why I need more millions so we can make more hay. – What do you mean, a bale of hay is just 50 bucks?? – But will it run first-to-third on a single!?

Taki, who drew a walk in the seventh and was otherwise ignored, did not allow another base hit after the three in the first inning until – ever. He got stuck in the bottom 7th, but not on base knocks; instead, with two outs, he walked both Tim Turner and Dan Riley, pinch-hitting in the 8-9 holes. With another lefty stick up in Damian Moreno, the Raccoons brought on Eloy Sencion, who ended the inning with a strikeout.

While Crystal told an unimpressed and flexing Gustaf all about her dream to open a nail salon, and to run away with her ex-boyfriend Jeffery-Tyrone, with whom she was on a break, but not really, and her mother was a total ***** about him, leading to Maud to caution her for language, the Raccoons put Rams and Gowin on base to begin the eighth inning against Bernardino Risso. Cox’ groundout put them into scoring position, with an intentional walk offered to Venegas at that point. The Raccoons responded by hitting for a perpetually slumping Pucks with Tyler Philipps, an insane move only three months earlier, but one that worked in this instance as Philipps snuck a shy single past Uranga to give the Coons a 2-1 lead. – Where all the home runs are, Nick? In your wallet! ….. Risso remained in against Knight, who was retired, but in RBI groundout fashion, before the Elks sent a new lefty reliever, Leo Iniguez, against … well, whomever the Raccoons wished to see hitting for Sencion, which turned out to be the Kyle Brobeck, who hit a fly to shallow right, but was retired by Walker on the slide. Brobeck then took to pitching a scoreless eighth, getting around a walk to Magnussen. It was Daley in the ninth with a 2-run lead. Uranga hit a 1-out single to center, but then was doubled up by Ricky Jimenez, and that was the ballgame. 3-1 Critters. Lavorano 2-5; Ramsay 2-5; Cox 2-4, 2B; Venegas 1-2, BB; Philipps (PH) 1-1, RBI; Taki 6.2 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 7 K;

I talked more dosh with Valdes after the game, which eventually led to wads of cash being pulled out of his pocket by Nick, which led to Crystal to instantly let go of Gustaf and instead sit on Valdes’ lap, while Maud calmly kept knitting. In the end I couldn’t coax another $2M out of Nick Valdes to find more offense for the team, partly because at some point Nick and Crystal just took off for a spontaneous holiday in the Bahamas.

Why are you still calm, Maud? Your niece just went off with a … MUCH older man! – What do you mean “well, it’s Tuesday”??

No, Gustaf, I don’t wish to try to close my paws around your enormous biceps. – Fine. – Oh boy, I can’t get around.

My, Gustaf, are you oily! (Cristiano snickers)

Game 2
POR: LF Crum – SS Lavorano – 1B Ramsay – C Gowin – RF Cox – 3B Crispin – CF Puckeridge – 2B Knight – P Wheatley
VAN: CF D. Moreno – 1B Wheeler – LF Magnussen – C Waker – RF A. Walker – 2B F. Marquez – SS Uranga – 3B Ri. Jimenez – P A. Jesus

Anton Jesus nicked Crum to begin the game, and Crum went on to score on a Lonzo single, aided admittedly by an Aaron Walker throwing error. Rams and Cox hit singles to bring Lonzo around, but Crispin then hit into a double play to end the inning, up 2-0. Damian Moreno’s double and Tristan Waker’s single cut it in half right away in the bottom of the inning, but the Coons pulled the run back in the top 2nd. Pucks drew a walk to begin the inning, and was still on first by the time Wheats had bunted himself into a 2-strike count. Pucks went on motion at 0-2, but Jesus missed and Pucks stole second base, then scored when Wheats knocked one into centerfield with the 1-2 pitch. It didn’t take too long for the damn Elks to answer, though. Jose Uranga dropped a ball on the leftfield line for a 1-out double, then scored on a Jimenez single, 3-2. Jesus hit into a double play to end the inning.

Gowin doubled to begin the top 3rd, and Jesus left with an injury, with Hyuma Hitomi taking over. Cox and Crispin made meek outs, but Pucks found a single in right-center and got Gowin in to re-establish a 2-run lead. The inning ended with Knight lining out to Wheeler, but Wheeler fell back after making a leaping snatch and landed awkwardly, leaving the game with neck soreness, to be replaced by Riley. The inning got worse for the Elks, with Moreno hitting a leadoff single in the bottom 3rd before Riley hit into a weird double play, flying out to Cox on the warning track before Moreno tagged and went for second base, but was thrown out, your old 9-4 double play.

Wheats got scratched for another run on three singles in the bottom 4th, with ex-Coon Ricky Jimenez driving in Tristan Waker. PH Tim Burkhart struck out to end the inning, Coons still up 4-3, but another leadoff single for Moreno in the fifth and a 2-out double by Waker got the score even in the fifth. Walker made the third out to Ramsay, and Wheats, whittled down for ten hits in five innings, would not return for the sixth inning. Bak got the bottom 6th, which didn’t go to plan at all. A Crispin error put Jimenez on base, and with Soto’s pinch-hit, 2-out single, the Elks were on the corners. Moreno grounded to Knight – and another throwing error, and the go-ahead run scored…! Lillis replaced him and got a flyout to Crum from Riley to end the ******* inning.

The game was not lost yet, because the Raccoons would get offense from a proven source of lightning – Matt Knight. He whacked a homer off Bernardino Risso to knot the score at five in the eighth inning. The Coons sent Hitchcock into the bottom 8th, but a single here, a hit batter there, and a walk to Moreno, and the bags were full with stinkin’ Elks. Sencion came on in need like the day before, and struck out his guy, Riley, to bail out another guy, like the day before. Nobody reached in the ninth, and the game went to extra innings, where the Raccoons did not make an out before they took the lead on a Cox single and a Crispin homer to right off Ruben Mendez. Daley was in again for the bottom 10th with a 7-5 lead, and this time allowed a walk to Marquez and a single to Jimenez. Those tying runs were in scoring position after a groundout by Leo Iniguez – a reliever, since the Elks’ bench was empty. Damian Moreno was batting though with two outs, 4-for-5 on the day, and no lefty left to save the day. Daley lost him in a full count, then ran another full count against the .185 hitter Riley, who hit a fly to left-center, but too high and too short, and hanging too long to not get Ken Crum to amble under it and make the snag to end the game. 7-5 Raccoons. Lavorano 2-5; Ramsay 2-4, BB, 2B; Cox 2-4, BB, RBI; Puckeridge 2-3, BB, RBI; Sencion 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K, W (4-0);

Eloy Sencion not only killed rallies for back-to-back days, but by pitching for four outs in this game also managed to claim back-to-back wins.

Game 3
POR: LF Crum – SS Lavorano – 1B Ramsay – RF Cox – 3B Venegas – CF Puckeridge – C Philipps – 2B Boese – P de la Cruz
VAN: CF D. Moreno – SS Mullen – LF Magnussen – C Waker – RF A. Walker – 1B Wheeler – 3B F. Marquez – 2B Uranga – P Herman

Raffy had another one of *those* starts; in the bottom 2nd the damn Elks bashed base hits on three consecutive pitches, singles for Wheeler and Marquez, then a 2-run double for Uranga, to take the lead. He needed 58 pitches through three innings, and he just wasn’t clicking… I went for maximum comfort, Honeypaws in my lap, a bottle of Capt’n Coma in my right paw, and my left holding Slappy’s patient hand while slightly shaking.

Rams homered to left for a run in the fourth, which saw the Elks’ 7-8-9 go down on five pitches, but they got another run off Raffy in the fifth with a leadoff double to right for Moreno and then a Magnussen RBI single to center. Raffy then bunted into a double play to erase Naughty Joe’s leadoff single in the sixth, which was probably the point where I finally abandoned hopes for a sweep in hostile territory. Raffy got through seven, but not without giving up another STUPID run in the bottom 7th. Uranga hit a single, advanced on a groundout, and scored on a passed ball and wild pitch, and I made a note to myself that if I ever managed to get them all stuck into bags and thrown into the Willamette, Raffy and Philipps would have to share a bag. The Elks then added three runs on a hapless Jason Terrell in the bottom 8th. Terrell walked two and allowed as many hits, although Bak also gave up another 2-run single to Tim Turner when he was subbed into a real mess of one in, three on, and one out. 7-1 Canadiens. Crum 2-4;

When I left Raccoons Ballpark to head to the airport for Vegas after this game, I noticed that the previously vacant store across the street was getting a new sign mounted above the door, and it read “Crystal’s Nail Salon”.

Only good things could come of this. For sure.

Raccoons (52-44) @ Aces (46-50) – July 24-26, 2054

The Raccoons were up 2-1 against the Aces this year. Vegas was sixth in runs scored and eighth in runs allowed with a +6 run differential. Their starting was meek, but they were third in homers and fourth in defense, while the rest of their starts was mostly around average. Dustin Ransford was the most notable DL occupant for them.

Projected matchups:
He Shui (8-7, 2.45 ERA) vs. Juan Mercado (9-4, 3.72 ERA)
Arthur Pickett (6-7, 4.57 ERA) vs. Medardo Regueir (8-5, 3.80 ERA)
Seisaku Taki (6-7, 3.44 ERA) vs. Chris Cornelius (4-12, 5.02 ERA)

Two southpaws to begin this set, after which they’d only have right-handers left.

The Raccoons also made a DESPERATE roster move. Naughty Joe (.167, 0 HR, 3 RBI) was returned to AAA. A move for a left-handed hitting second baseman didn’t look like it was going to happen – although the Gold Sox were even dangling Ivan Villa three months ahead of him becoming a free agent – but the Raccoons had a left-handed hitting second baseman in the minors. Ryan Allred was batting .343/.429/.433 in St. Pete.

(silence)

I feel like you want more details. He was also doing this in just 26 games at that level, after hitting .243 in Ham Lake to start the year. He was also a #290 pick from the 2050 draft. This was truly the stage of flinging **** at the wall.

Game 1
POR: LF Venegas – SS Lavorano – 1B Crum – C Gowin – 3B Brobeck – RF Puckeridge – CF Tenazes – 2B Knight – P Shui
LVA: CF Hummel – RF Austin – SS Welter – LF Kaniewski – C DeFrank – 2B J. White – 1B Blair – 3B Tauzin – P J. Mercado

Venegas walked, Lonzo singled, double steal, and then productive outs from the 3-4 batters resulted in a 2-0 lead for the Critters by the time He Shui took to the mound. The inning after, Pucks and Tenazes took the corners with a pair of hits and nobody out… and were stranded with a whole lotta nothing from the 8-9-1 batters, only one of whom was excused. From there until Kyle Brobeck hit a 2-out triple in the sixth inning, the Raccoons were having a bit of a lie-down, hardly challenging Mercado. The former Furball was nevertheless replaced after the Brobeck triple, only for righty Joe Bunch to walk Pucks and give up an RBI single to Prospero Tenazes, the first RBI of the year for him and only the third in 87 career plate appearances. With runners on the corners, Ryan Allred made his major league debut as pinch-hitter for Knight, but his fly to center was caught by Ken Hummel.

Hummel had the Aces’ lone RBI so far in the 3-1 game, singling home Mark Tauzin in the third inning against Shui, who was throwing decently, but unspectacularly, with only three hits and two strikeouts on his ledger through five. Jeremy Welter and John Kaniewski found back-to-back 1-out singles off him in the bottom 6th. Ray DeFrank flew to Tenazes for the second out in a full count, but when Welter went for third base, Tenazes threw the ball away and Welter scored, with the tying run to third base in a hard to explain snafu. Jim White lined out to Lonzo to strand Kaniewski, though. Shui held the lead for another inning, before the Raccoons lost Ken Crum on a leadoff double in the top 8th. He tweaked his knee turning first base and after a few more strides winced and had to resort to hopping the rest of the way, telling me that this could have been a leadoff triple rather easily. Cox ran for him, while righty Bill Lawrence walked Gowin and gave up a single to Brobeck. Three on, no outs, doom. For the Aces. Pucks singled in a run, and another run scored on a wild pitch before Lawrence walked Tenazes. Left-hander Jorge Quinones came on and whiffed Allred, but Rams batted for Shui and slapped home two runs with a single to right-center. Venegas singled to fill them up, and Lonzo singled to score Tenazes, 8-2 by now. Cox singled in two, batting in the same inning he had come on as pinch-runner. Gowin killed the inning with a double play grounder, but the Raccoons had scored seven and were good.

The Raccoons then asked for a few outs from Terrell, maybe an inning. He faced three, retired none, and that was the last time he appeared for the team. Hitchcock had to come in, gave up three hits and four runs, and I was ready to gamble the entire ******* team on black. Top 9th, Adam Eutsler offered leadoff walks to Brobeck and Pucks. Tenazes grounded out, but Allred notched himself a trophy, shoving an RBI single through the right side for his first big league hit. Brobeck then handled the ninth. 11-6 Raccoons. Lavorano 2-5, RBI; Cox 1-1, 2 RBI; Brobeck 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 0 K and 2-4, BB, 3B; Puckeridge 3-3, 2 BB, 2B, RBI; Tenazes 2-4, BB, RBI; Ramsay (PH) 1-2, 2 RBI; Shui 7.0 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, W (9-7);

So, more roster moves. A knee sprain relegated Ken Crum to the DL for the next month or so, and then the Raccoons also axed this year’s Rule 5 pick, handing Jason Terrell (0-1, 5.93 ERA) back to the Pacifics after he had walked 30 batters in 41 innings.

The Raccoons proceeded to call up last year’s Rule 5 pick, Antonio Alfaro, who had a 2.45 ERA in St. Petersburg after his early-season demotion, plus another debutee, #37 prospect LF/RF/1B Trent Brassfield, who was not going to turn 22 until September, and was hitting .274/.384/.430 with seven homers and ten steals with the Alley Cats in his first season in AAA. He looked a bit like a copy of Ken Crum, doing everything reasonably well without excelling at anything in particular; he was not a switch-hitter though, he was right-handed. The Coons had picked him up from the Cyclones after the disastrous Juan del Toro experiment ended two years ago this Sunday.

Meanwhile the Aces acquired CL Trent O’Sullivan (2-6, 3.86 ERA, 18 SV) from the Buffaloes, swapping a host of prospects to Topeka.

Game 2
POR: 3B Venegas – SS Lavorano – C Gowin – 1B Ramsay – LF Brassfield – RF Cox – CF Tenazes – 2B Knight – P Pickett
LVA: CF Hummel – RF Austin – SS Welter – LF Kaniewski – C DeFrank – 2B J. White – 1B Blair – 3B Tauzin – P Regueir

Ken Hummel drew a leadoff walk, stole a base, and came around with Welter’s single and Kaniewski’s sac fly in the bottom 1st, putting the Aces 1-0 ahead. The recruit Brassfield opened the top 2nd with a single to center, but was left on base. His next time up he followed Gowin, who had just homered the game to a 1-1 tie, and Ramsay, who knocked one off the fence in right for a double, but struck out, and Cox and Tenazes went down equally weakly to keep the go-ahead run in scoring position. Knight began the fifth with a walk, while Pickett tried to get himself a Victoria Cross, but failed to keep the bunt fair. At 0-2, Knight dashed to second base, arrived there just as the throw by DeFrank hit off his fuzzy bum, and then legged it to third base on the carom. When Pickett flew out to Aubrey Austin on the next pitch, Knight scored for a sac fly and a 2-1 lead. The Raccoons got one more run on a ground-rule double by Venegas, Lonzo’s groundout, and a wild pitch.

Top 6th, Brassfield hit a 1-out single that also moved Rams to second base. Regueir ticked Cox with an 0-2 pitch to load the bases for Tenazes, who popped out, and Knight wobbled out to Jim White to keep all three runners stranded, each on their own island. While Pickett kept pitching neatly but also – like Shui in the opener – rather nondescriptly, Brassfield was on base for the third time in the eighth, drawing a walk off Efrain Estrada and again moving a runner to second base, this time Gowin. Cox killed that one with a double play. Pickett pitched into the eighth, but walked Hummel and was bailed out by Lillis, who kept the 3-1 lead intact. The ninth was Daley’s, and he retired the Aces in order. 3-1 Critters. Gowin 2-3, BB, HR, RBI; Brassfield 2-3, BB; Pickett 7.1 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 4 K, W (7-7);

Game 3
POR: 3B Venegas – SS Lavorano – 1B Ramsay – RF Cox – CF Puckeridge – LF Brassfield – 2B Allred – C Philipps – P Taki
LVA: CF Hummel – RF Austin – SS Welter – LF Kaniewski – C DeFrank – 2B J. White – 1B Blair – 3B Tauzin – P Cornelius

Cornelius walked Venegas, gave up a single to Lonzo, and after Ramsay popped out, put Cox on base by hitting him in the thigh with an 0-2 pitch. Pucks was up next, barreled a drive to right-center and it was well outta here – GRAAAAAAAND SLAAAAAAAMMM!!!

After giving up a slam inside of 13 pitches, Cornelius settled in at first before getting yanked after fourth-inning walk to Tyler Philipps, getting on ex-Coon Willie Maldonado, while Taki held the Aces to an Austin single the first time through. The Aces came on in the fourth, getting a Welter double, and RBI single from DeFrank, and then a wallbanger in the gap for a 2-out RBI triple by Dave Blair, cutting the score in half, 4-2. Austin and Welter hit 2-out singles in the fifth as Taki kept fading, but he handled Kaniewski’s comebacker for the third out of the inning. Taki needed 103 pitches to complete six innings, and would not return for the seventh, in which Bak gave up a run on three singles, 4-3, before striking out Kaniewski and getting Pucks to chase down DeFrank’s drive to get out of the inning. Where did our offense go after all??

Top 8th, Pucks led off unretired and singled off Bill Lawrence. Brassfield had yet to get on base, but singled over Welter’s head for another single. Allred was 0-3, and flew out to Kaniewski, although Pucks dazzled down to third base on the play. Philipps was also unretired in three attempts, and while he grounded out to short, it got the insurance run home, 5-3. Crispin grounded out to end the inning. Sencion held the line in the eighth, while the top of the order was due in the bottom 9th, with Hitchcock getting the assignment. Everything was to left, as Hummel grounded out to Lonzo, Austin singled in front of Brassfield, and Venegas got a grounder rolled by Welter for the second out. Kaniewski struck out to complete the sweep. 5-3 Coons. Puckeridge 4-4, HR, 4 RBI; Philipps 2-3, BB, RBI;

Complaints and stuff

A 5-1 week and the first sweep of a full set since the Coons scratched out three 1-run wins over the Condors in Tijuana in late May. Is the team finally starting to roll? It would be important to know, because prospects are scarce for us, and it’s only five days to the trade deadline. We’re also only two games behind the Loggers for the division lead.

The bidding war on Angelo Flores escalated to over $1.3M before the Raccoons bailed out. That left us with only two players signed from this year’s July IFA period, and they had cost only $83k in total. Just over half of that went to Venezuelan right-hander Raul Gonzalez and his 4-pitch mix, and the rest to Venezuelan outfielder Felix Ayala, who had some vague power potential.

Speaking of the Condors, we’ll have them in to begin next week’s homestand, along with the Knights. Monday is off, though, and then August the Coons will mostly be a travelling team; only nine home games, and only three in a stretch from August 3 to 27, with six road series in every corner of the country, and beyond.

Fun Fact: 36 years ago today, Oklahoma’s Brian Furst threw his second no-hitter in a 13-0 rout of the Indians.

Perhaps the worst of all the pitchers with multiple no-hitters to their name, Furst had a 12-year career with the Condors, Rebels, and Thunder, with both no-hitters coming for the Thunder. Despite being a #4 pick and making his debut two years later, Furst would pitch to a winning record with a sub-4 ERA just once in his career, a 16-11 season with a 3.59 ERA for the Rebels in 2015. His only All Star Game came in 2013, also with the Rebs. He was prone to home runs and didn’t strike out all that many, with 15+ dingers being standard and 7.0 K/9 never attained.

He retired at age 35 with a 115-151 record, 4.36 ERA, 1 SV, and 1,371 strikeouts in exactly 2,222 innings over 374 appearances (318 starts).
