Not everyone has gotten the chances that I have, though, so be patient and understanding of them. They're working hard to catch up, too.
AWFUL rains in Binghamton to end the night.
But Spencer Torkelson and Dillon Dingler each went out to help pull tarp as the Binghamton crew had a tough time.

Jackson Holliday has a five-hit game. Four singles and a two-RBI triple. It's the first five-hit game for the

Gunnar Henderson hit:
His first Double-A home run
His first Triple-A home run
His first Major League home run
In a span of just barely over four months
#Birdland
Gunnar Henderson full-count walk in the first inning today.
Reached base in all 26 games this season for Bowie. Leads the league with the on-base streak.
#Birdland
Colton Cowser now 3-for-3 in the fifth inning with a solo home run to lead off the frame.
No statcast here, but I'd say at least 415-425 to straight center.

Connor Norby has done it again!
His second leadoff home run of the series, and fourth of the season.
He has 11 home runs in the first inning of games this season, that's the most in ALL of baseball, Majors or Minors.

A fresh start.
A lot of last minute movement and prep, but I'm extremely happy to get to work this season with the

The loudest performance this week for
@WoodpeckersNC
was an insane 12-for-23 from Colton Shaver.
Added four doubles, two walks, and only two strikeouts.
He raised his average by 72 points in one week!
Grayson Rodriguez just struck out the side in the second inning on 16 pitches. Offspeed did most of the work for tons of swings-and-misses. Fastball his 99 for the first time.

After firing five scoreless to start Bowie's no-hitter on Friday, Chayce McDermott has thrown four more hitless innings today for nine-straight no-hit frames (even if the strike zone hasn't been friendly to him)

hurled an immaculate inning (9 pitches, three strikeouts) in the 4th yesterday against Wingate.
Here's how it sounded.

I was SO honored to talk with Clifford Layton on today's broadcast.
Clifford played in the Negro Leagues in the 1950's as an accomplished pitcher and outfielder, was once a teammate of Hank Aaron and even collected a hit off of Satchel Page.
Will post the interview soon.

had asked how possible it was to produce a television pregame show for home games this season.
I'm fairly proud of the workflow I've constructed, the graphics I've been able to build, and the quick turnaround time I've established to fully self-produce it each day

.438/.518/.795

25 RBI / 24 R
13 K / 12 BB

Whitley finally allows a base hit, FB velo hovered 94-95 in the 4th, but curveball was still picking up strikes like nothing.
4.0IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 7K, 47P/31K so far
Perfectly balanced:
@WoodpeckersNC
have hit 120 homers, tied for 10th most in

40 Homers while tied
40 Homers while leading
40 Homers while trailing
It’s a shame the season fell just short, but the stories packed in this scorebook are ones I will never forget.
Thanks
@WoodpeckersNC
for giving me an incredible season to chronicle. I’m sad to see it go, and I can’t wait for next year.
Whitley a perfect 2nd, all strikeouts.
Sitting 95 on FB
76-79 on Curve, got the strikes called on lefties.
Took 13 pitches.
Would only be my assumption that this start means he's probably done with Fayetteville after

Connor Norby has hit ten home runs in the first inning of games this season.
That's the most in Minor League Baseball, and tied for the most with Austin Riley and Jose Altuve for the most in all of baseball.

#Birdland
Whitley really locating the changeup nicely, still some FBs haven't gone his way on the borders, but as Lynchburg has tried to capitalize on it, it's led a ton of weak contact. still sitting 95.
Longest outing of his rehab in terms of outs recorded.
Most Runs in the Eastern League since 6/27 (When Colton Cowser and Connor Norby joined Double-A):
1. Joey Ortiz - 45
2. Colton Cowser - 44
3. Connor Norby - 40
4. David Hamilton (BOS) - 35
