April 21st, 2029: We start a series in Washington with the Nationals as Steve Paustian (2-0, 3.20 ERA, 1.12 WHIP) takes on Steve Vincent (1-1, 3.31 ERA, 1.22 WHIP). We piled on the runs, and took the opener 10-5 to keep our unbeaten opener streak.

Paustian went 6 innings with 6 hits, a run, 3 walks, and 5 strikeouts. C.J. LaFever tossed an inning with 3 hits, 3 runs, and a walk. Jake Yearick tossed an inning with 2 hits, a run, walk, and a strikeout.

Jon Reid was 2-for-4 with a run scored. Daylen Lile was 2-for-4 with 2 RBI's. Isaac Nunez was 2-for-4 with a run scored. Jackson Miller was 1-for-4 with a solo homer and walk. Juan Ramirez was 1-for-4 with a run scored, RBI, walk, and double. Juan Simental was 1-for-5 with a three run homer. Mac Horvath was 1-for-4 with a run scored. Gregorio Alvarenga was 1-for-4 with 3 runs, a walk, and a two run homer. It may not seem impressive, but it's his first home run since 2025, and just the 12th of his career (5,292 plate appearences!).

April 22nd, 2029: Middle games are our achilles heel, but Luis Ardon (1-1, 4.91 ERA, 1.50 WHIP) will look to beat Chris Dorman (0-1, 6.75 ERA, 1.88 WHIP) in game two of three. He was successful, and we won 10-3.

Ardon pitched well, 6 innings with 7 hits, a run, and 5 strikeouts. Ignacio Hinojos allowed a hit, walk, run, and got a strikeout. Jamie Preist allowed 3 hits and a run with a strikeout in an inning.

Isaac Nunez was 3-for-4 with a walk, double, solo homer, and two run homer. Noah Smith was 2-for-3 with a run scored, sac-fly, hit by pitch, and 2 steals. Jackson Miller was 2-for-3 with a homer, 3 RBI's, walk, and sac-fly. Daylen Lile was 1-for-4 with a walk, 2 runs, triple, and RBI. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-4 with a run scored and walk. Juan Ramirez was 1-for-5 with 2 runs, an RBI, and triple.

April 23rd, 2029: We moved all the way up to 2nd in the Power Rankings. At 15-5, we have a 2.5 game lead over the surprise Mets. They've got some talent this year, much more then recently, and could make some noise. Just hopefully not too much...

We looked to finish the sweep with Pat Saitta (2-1, 4.13 ERA, 1.50 WHIP) taking on Sonny Warner (0-3, 3.54 ERA, 1.18 WHIP). The Nats got 4 in the 6th, and for the first time all year, we lost the last game of a series.

But, we definitely should've won 2-0...

Saitta pitched 5.1 innings with 2 hits, 3 walks, and 8 strikeouts, but 4 unearned runs... Chris Reid made three errors... Luis Alcantra tossed 1.2 innings with a hit and 2 strikeouts.

Juan Ramirez was 2-for-3 with a steal and hit by pitch. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-4 with a solo homer. Jorge Tapias was 1-for-4 with his first career homerun.

I think it's time for Reid to move to first base... Mac Horvath is a good defender at thrid, so it shouldn't hurt moving Reid.

We're off to LA for three with the Dodgers. We'll see B.J. Russow (2-2, 6.86 ERA), Robinson Ortiz (1-0, 5.09 ERA), and Slade Cecconi (2-2, 4.34 ERA).

April 24th, 2029: Rangers righty Nolan Kingham will miss the rest of the year with a torn flexor tendon in his elbow. He tossed 12.2 innings with 11 strikeouts in 10 relif appearences.

A worse injury happened to former Angel Anderson Espinoza, who was forced to retire with a torn labrum in his shoulder. The 31-year-old has fought injuries his whole career, and will end with a 4.53 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, and 243 strikeouts in 248.1 innings.

Can we keep our opening win streak? Former Dodger C.J. Jorgensen (2-1, 2.42 ERA, 0.85 WHIP) took on B.J Russow (2-2, 6.86 ERA, 1.38 WHIP) at Dodger Stadium. Chris Reid will make his MLB debut at first base. That streak ended, as the Dodgers topped us 5-1.

Jorgensen tossed 6 innings with 6 hits, 5 runs, a walk, and 5 strikeouts. Jarred Kelenic tossed 2 innings with a hit and 3 strikeouts.

Juan Ramriez was 2-for-3 with a RBI, walk, and double. Gregorio Alvarenga was 1-for-5 with a double. Jorgensen was 1-for-1 with a sac-bunt. Noah Smith was 1-for-4 with a steal. Juan Simental was 1-for-4 with a steal and run scored.

April 25th, 2029: We looked to get back on track with the red-hot Devon Peterson (2-1, 2.66 ERA, 1.39 WHIP) taking on Robinson Ortiz (1-0, 5.09 ERA, 1.17 WHIP). It took 11 innings, before former Marlin Jose Ramirez hit a walk-off solo homer to give the Dodgers a 6-5 win.

Mac Horvath was hit by a pitch and left with an injury. His diagnosis is pending. He was 2-for-3.

Peterson had a rough outing, 4.1 innings with 6 hits, 5 runs, 3 walks, and 7 strikeouts. Jake Yearick tossed 2 innings with 2 walks and a strikeout. Gene Hall tossed 1.1 innings with 2 hits, including the game winning solo homer.

Isaac NUnez was 2-for-5 with an RBI. Gregorio Alvarenga was 1-for-5 with 2 runs, a triple, and 2 steals. Daylen Lile was 1-for-4 with a walk, double, and steal. Noah Smith was 1-for-5 with a double and run scored. Juan Simental was 1-for-5 with a run scored and RBI. Chris Reid was 1-for-4 with a run and walk. Peterson was 1-for-2.

April 26th, 2029: Horvath was diagnosed with a broken nose, but he'll miss just 3 days, and tomorrow is an off day.

We looked to avoid the sweep with Steve Paustian (3-0, 2.81 ERA, 1.21 WHIP) looking to stay hot against former Marlin Slade Cecconi (2-2, 4.34 ERA, 1.34 WHIP). Cecconi is fighting a sore back that will have minimal influence on his play. It was a little more then minimal, as we rallied for 6 in the 4th and won the finale 10-4.

Paustian didn't pitch great, 3 innings with 4 hits, 4 runs, 4 walks, and 3 strikeouts. Hinojos got the win, 2 innings with a hit and 5 strikeouts. Josh Brown tossed 2 innings with 3 hits and a strikeout while getting a hold.

Juan Simental was 3-for-5 with 2 runs, and 4 RBI's. Isaac Nunez was 3-for-5 with a run scored and RBI. Chris Reid was 2-for-4 with a solo homer and walk. Jarred Kelenic was 2-for-6 with an RBI. Juan Ramirez was 1-for-4 with a double, run scored, and RBI. Jorge Tapia was 1-for-4 with 2 runs and a walk. Jon Reid was 1-for-5 with a double, run scored, and walk.

We get tomorrow off, and will head back home!
