AA Mississippi Braves (1-6)

More from Tomahawk Take

Monday

The M-Braves got a great start from Brandon Barker, but the bullpen simply couldn’t hold up, and the offense couldn’t push any runs across as the Braves lost 5-1. Barker went 5 innings, allowing 1 run on 5 hits, striking out 4. Jason Hursh finally got himself on the right track, hurling his first scoreless inning, striking out two, and having his sinker looking dominating out of the bullpen. Only Dustin Peterson reached base multiple times in the game for Mississippi with a single and a walk on the day. Ozzie Albies had a double.

Tuesday

Lucas Sims took the hill and came out of the gate strong, but when his defense let him down, he really seemed to struggle to regain his focus and never could get back into the game. Montgomery defeated Mississippi 7-2. Sims went 4 innings, allowing 6 runs, but only 2 of them earned, on 4 hits and 4 walks. He also struck out 7. Dustin Peterson had a double, single, and walk. Willians Astudillo had two singles. Jacob Schrader had a single and a walk. Ozzie Albies stole his first base of the season.

Wednesday

The Braves lost on a literal walk-off as Mauricio Cabrera fell off of his early success and found his old command-challenged ways and walked in the winning run in the bottom of the 9th as Montgomery beat Mississippi 3-2. Chris Ellis didn’t look as hot in this start as he did in his first one, going 5 innings, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks, striking out 3. Cabrera walked 3 in his 1 1/3 innings of work. Jordy Lara hit a home run and took a walk. Matt Lipka had a single and a walk. Jacob Schrader hit a double.
