4/21: L 5-8 (1-1) - Ortiz gave up 4 runs on 12 hits and a walk over 6 but Greg Doyle came in and gave up 4 while only recording 2 outs in the 7th. Petzke hit our first homer of the year in the first and Singleton hit one in the 5th.
4/22 - 4/24 @PHX:
Our first divisional games of the year, Phoenix enters the series off a 2 game sweep of Baltimore, including a shutout yesterday. Their offense only mustered 2 hits in that one and just a single run, so maybe our guys can pick up a win or two here.
4/22: A rough game as the offense never really got going and Grande got hit hard early. Couple that with 4 errors by our defense and that’s a recipe for disaster. Kurtz drove in our only runs in the 4th with a two run shot, but between Grande, our bullpen, and the defense, we allowed 8 runs to come in. Final: 8-2 loss. (1-2)
4/23: Martinez started out doing okay, but got hit hard in the fifth and couldn’t finish out the innings. In all he gave up 7 runs on 9 hits with 4 walks and just 2 K’s. The offense once again could only put up 2 runs and didn’t get close to winning this one. Final: 9-2 loss (1-3)
4/24: Collins made the start today filling in for Greg Doyle who had come on in relief two nights ago and dominated. 6.2 innings with just 1 earned run allowed. He gave up 9 hits and struck out 3. The bats turned on early, putting up 2 and 4 in the 3rd and 4th innings respectively. The bottom of our order was the ones doing the damage, with Schuster, Baker, Ebey, and Joyce going a combined 7-14 with 1 walk and HRs by Ebey and Joyce. Singleton continued his early season struggles going 0-5 and dropping his average to .136. Final: 9-4 win (2-3).
