OAKLAND–Your Oakland Ballers returned this evening for the second part of their back to back, home and home series against their arch rivals, the Yuba-Sutter High Wheelers. The local nine had taken the measure of last year’s Pioneer Baseball League champs, who had been based in Davis for the ’24 campaign, by defeating them in five of the six contests in Marysville.

The B’s won, 7-6, with a stunning four run outburst in the bottom of the ninth that wiped out the effects of their excruciating sixth inning meltdown. That unfortunate interlude had let the visitors turn a 3-0 Oakland lead into a seemingly impregnable 6-3 High Wheeler advantage

The Ballers held the upper hand for the first five frames of the contest. Their starter, Noah Millikan. kept the HIgh Wheelers off the basepaths until the third inning, when Connor Denning reached on a single. But he was removed in a double play liner to third. Millikan seemed to be tiring in the fourth, but all he surrendered was a single to River Osak.

The High Wheelers started to race around the bases in their next turn at the plate. Kirkland Banks led off with a walk. A sparkling double play provided a brief respite; Randy Flores hit a hard line drive that Tyler Best corralled in left, threw to cutoff man Tremayne Cobb who snapped a bullet to Christian Almanza at first to retire Flores.

Evan Berkey then homered to left, and Gia Brusa doubled to right, and that was it for Millikan. His replacement, Adam Bogosian never had any steam to run out of. He didn’t retire any of the five batters he faced. One of them walked, and the other four got hits, one of them an RBI double by Orak. The Baller defence contributed to the debacle, committing two chargeable errors, not to mention sins of omission.

That’s the way things stood, with Yuba-Sutter ahead, 6-3, until the Ballers bounced back like a Spalding (pronounced Spall-DEEN) in their last turn at bat.

The resurgence of the killer B’s came out of nowhere. The High Wheelers’ starting pitcher, Brett Woznik had held them to three runs on five hits and a couple of walks over seven innings, excellent work by Pioneer League standards. Mason Bryant had set the hosts down in order in the eighth and seemed ready to cruise to an easy save.

He began the inning by walking Cam Bufford, who at two for three, seemed to be coming out of his recent slump. Then he walked Dillon Tatum, who had gone hitless in three at bats. Esai Santos, a vital cog in several Baller late inning comebacks, pinch hit for Tyler Best and singled to center.

Both runners wisely refrained from trying to advance more than 90 feet. With the bases FOB (full of Ballers), Davis Drewek was called out on strikes. Two outs were all that separated Yuba-Sutter from a series tying win.

The powerful Lou Helmig pinch hit for Darryll Buggs. Bryant walked him, and Oakland trailed 6-4, the bases remained loaded, but Oakland was running out of outs, and Bryant was out of the game. Ethan Bates (listed as Joe in the box score) walked Cobb.

Now it was 6-5 as Oakland kept the line moving. Jake Allgeyer came to the plate, one for four so far. The count went to 1-1. Allgeyer singled to center. Buggs and Santos raced home, and, as the saying goes, the crowd roared.

Like every Wednesday when the Ballers are in town, is a Winning Wednesday at Raimondi. The first 500 fans to arrive will receive a commemorative cup and a poster. Everyone will have the chance to enter ano-cost raffle to a custom Green Day x Ballers bike designed by Billie Joe Armstrong. Game time is scheduled for 6:35pm PT

Late Rally Equals San Francisco Win Over Pirates 4-2 at PNC

The San Francisco Giants came away with a win in game three against the Pittsburgh Pirates to win the series. The final score was 4-2. The Giants had trailed for most of the game but came alive in the eighth inning to put this game away. The only downside in this game was when Jerar Encarnacion pulled up at first base after being called out in the seventh inning with an apparent hamstring issue.

Game recap: The Pirates wasted no time getting up on the scoreboard taking a 1-0 lead in the first inning. Nick Gonzales hit a single driving base runner Liover Peguero home for the early lead.

It was a very sleepy start for San Francisco with only one hit through the first four innings. The Giants slugger Jerar Encarnacion came to the plate in the fifth inning knocking a bomb out of the yard (442 feet) to tie up this game 1-1.

The Pirates answered in the bottom of the fifth inning taking back the lead 2-1. Tommy Pham sacrificed allowing Isiah Kiner-Falefa to cross home plate. Kiner-Falefa had reached third base off a Robbie Ray wild pitch. He had stolen second base before taking third base and the eventual run.

The Pirates starting pitcher Andrew Heaney was relieved in the fifth inning. He went 4 2/3 innings allowing 2 hits, 1 run with one strikeout. Dauri Moreta took the mound going into the sixth inning.

After a scoreless sixth and seventh for both teams the game went into the top of the eighth inning. Neither team was having a lot of success at the plate, the Giants with only 2 hits and the Pirates with 6.

San Francisco starting pitcher Ray went six innings allowing 6 hits, 2 earned runs 2 walks with 8 strikeouts. Jose Butto pitched a perfect seventh inning. Ryan Walker took over in the eighth inning with the game tied. He gave up back-to-back hits with two outs in the inning. The San Francisco bullpen immediately got busy.

San Francisco pinch hitter Patrick Bailey got the Giants third hit of the game in the top of the eighth inning, a single, and with two innings left in the game San Francisco was looking to at least tie up the game.

Rafael Devers had his second walk of the game and the Giants had two runners on base with one out. Willie Adames blooped the ball into middle right field and San Francisco had a golden opportunity with the bases loaded.

They had a great chance to not only tie up the game but to take the lead for the first time Wednesday. This was their chance right here right now with Matt Chapman at the plate looking for his first hit. Chapman came so close to leaving the yard but sacrificed and Bailey scored to tie up the game 2-2. Another oh so close hit from Casey Schmitt was caught deep in right field and that was the inning with the Giants all tied up in this one. Two swings in a row coming so very close to home runs but with the one run San Francisco was back in this ball game.

San Francisco pitcher Ryan Walker got out of a sticky two on two out situation in the bottom of the eighth inning striking out Oneil Cruz for the third out and it was on to the ninth inning this game knotted at two.

The ever consistent Jung Hoo Lee hit a double to start off the ninth inning with only one out. Dom Smith came to the plate hitting for Christian Koss and knocked another double driving Lee home taking their first lead of the day 3-2.

San Francisco was not finished. Patrick Bailey singled Smith home and it was a 4-2 Giants lead. San Francisco was three outs away from winning this game after trailing for most of it. The Giants finished off the series with a 4-2 win in game three.

Game notes: Tuesday the Giants beat up on the Pirates by the score of 8-1 to tie up the 3-game series at 1-1 and Wednesday came into the game and took the series before heading San Francisco to Oracle Park for a series with the Washington Nationals starting Friday.

Wednesday Giants starting pitcher Robbie Ray pitched six inning allowing six hits, two earned runs, two walks, and eight strike outs. Pirates starting pitcher Andrew Heaney pitched 4.2 innings allowing two hits, one earned run, and struck one batter.

The San Francisco Giants will open up a three game series in San Francisco to take on the Washington Nationals. Giant starter Kai-Wei Teng is probable on the mound for San Francisco with a 0-0, 13.50 ERA. The Nationals will start Jake Irvin with a 8-6 win/loss record and a 4.89 ERA. First pitch for game one is scheduled for 7:15 PM this Friday night.

Sacramento A’s game wrap: Langeliers Launches Three Homers as Sacramento Athletics Crush Nationals in 16-7 Slugfest

Langeliers Launches Three Homers as Sacramento Athletics Crush Nationals in 16-7 Slugfest

By Mauricio Segura

The Sacramento Athletics turned Nationals Park into their personal home run derby on Tuesday night, jumping all over Washington’s pitching in a 16-7 offensive showcase. Catcher Shea Langeliers led the offensive charge with three home runs, powering a relentless attack that reminded everyone just how dangerous the Green and Gold can be when the bats are hot.

From the very first pitch, Sacramento looked like a team that had no intention of easing into the evening. Langeliers opened the game with a towering drive to center field for his 20th homer of the season, and that was only the beginning.

Nick Kurtz followed with a single, Brent Rooker laced a double, and JJ Bleday drove them both in with a line-drive single to make it 3-0 before a single out had been recorded.

Colby Thomas finally gave the Nationals their first breath of relief with a flyout, but Darell Hernaiz immediately snatched it away with a two-run blast to dead center. By the time the first inning mercifully ended, the A’s led 5-0 and had already knocked the wind out of the home crowd.

Luis Severino, meanwhile, was in complete command on the mound for Sacramento, mowing through Washington’s lineup with little resistance. He retired the first six hitters he faced, needing minimal effort to preserve the early cushion.

Severino’s efficiency allowed the offense to keep piling on, and in the third inning, the onslaught continued. Thomas walked and stole second, setting up RBI opportunities for the bottom of the order. Tyler Soderstrom cashed in with an RBI single to stretch the lead to 6-0, and by the end of three innings, the game felt like a mismatch from another era.

Langeliers, though, was far from done. In the top of the fourth, after Nick Kurtz doubled and Rooker singled him home, JJ Bleday crushed a two-run homer to center that made it 9-0. Nationals starter MacKenzie Gore had already been chased, and the Sacramento dugout was grinning ear to ear as their bats turned the contest into a highlight reel. Langeliers punctuated the next inning with his second homer of the night, a solo shot to left that reached the upper deck in a hurry.

The Nationals finally broke through in the fourth with a run on Brady House’s RBI single, but it felt like trying to stop a tidal wave with a paper cup. By the sixth, Washington had trimmed the deficit to 10-3, but Langeliers crushed his third home run in the seventh.

Sacramento wasn’t content with just tape-measure homers. In the eighth, the Green and Gold put the game completely out of reach with a barrage of hits. Rooker and Bleday each ripped two-run doubles, and by the time the inning ended, the Athletics had built a 16-3 lead.

Rooker finished the night with four hits, two doubles, and four RBIs, while Bleday added four hits of his own, including a homer and double, driving in five. Kurtz reached base four times and scored four runs, and Hernaiz chipped in with a homer, a sacrifice fly, and three RBIs.

The bullpen made things a little more interesting than manager Mark Kotsay would have liked. Eduarniel Núñez and the relief corps stumbled in the ninth, allowing Washington to scratch across four runs and briefly raise the volume in Nationals Park.

Robert Hassell III doubled home a run, Luis García Jr. plated two more with a sharp single, and Brady House walked with the bases loaded to bring the Nationals within 16-7. Osvaldo Bido finally slammed the door with a strikeout to end a marathon final frame.

By the numbers, this was Sacramento’s most explosive performance of the season. They racked up 24 hits, six of them for extra bases, and went 10-for-20 with runners in scoring position. The top half of the lineup was virtually unstoppable.

Langeliers’ three-homer night not only stole the spotlight but also gave the A’s catcher 22 bombs on the year, a career-best pace that underscores his emergence as one of the premier power threats at his position.

For the Athletics, this wasn’t just a win; it was a statement. After a stretch of uneven offensive showings, the Green and Gold reminded the league that they can light up the scoreboard in a hurry. With Langeliers locked in, Rooker heating up, and a deep supporting cast, Sacramento’s lineup looks ready to make every series a test of endurance for opposing pitchers.

By Barbara Mason

After losing a heart-breaker Monday to the Pittsburg Pirates (49-65) in a walk-off 5-4 the San Francisco (57-57) rallied the troops and dominated the Pirates in game two winning 8-1 on Tuesday at PNC Park in Pittsburgh. Every Giant in the line up had a hit in the game and the Giants also had three home runs.

Both Heliot Ramos and Willie Adames had terrific games. Wednesday the Giants will be looking to finish the series with a win in game three.

Game recap: After the disappointing loss on Monday, the Giants needed to get more production at the plate and tie up this series. In Game One they had seven hits, the Pirates with six.

Neither team scored in the first or second inning. The Giants Christian Koss got the game going in the right direction for San Francisco hitting a two run home run in the third inning.

The Pirates cut the Giants lead in half in the third when Bryan Reynolds singled Isiah Kiner-Falefa home still trailing 2-1. Pittsburgh had the bases loaded with two outs but failed to put any more runs up on the board.

The Giants were just getting this game going in a three-inning rally scoring six runs. Jerar Encarnacion scored in the fourth inning with a home run to center to extend their lead to 3-1. This was his first home run of the season.

Rafael Devers singled in the fifth inning and Heliot Ramos who was having a great game scored for a 4-1 San Francisco lead. Ramos had been on base three times so far in the game. The Giants tacked on two more runs in the fifth when Willie Adames homered with Rafael Devers on base taking a 6-1 lead.

San Francisco had scored in three straight innings so why not make it four straight innings. Patrick Bailey got in on the action hitting a single in the sixth inning driving both Dominic Smith and Jung Hoo Lee home for a dominating lead 8-1. Through six innings the Giants had ten hits. Every single player on the San Francisco line up card had a hit in a great offensive game.

Pittsburg pitcher Mike Burrows had a rough outing almost completing five innings but was relieved by Braxton Ashcraft in the fifth. He finished going 4 2/3 innings allowing five hits, six earned runs, three walks and three strikeouts.

San Francisco’s Logan Webb had a terrific game going six innings allowing seven hits, one earned run, no walks, and ten strikeouts. He was relieved in the seventh inning by Matt Gage.

The Giants would take the 8-1 lead into the bottom of the ninth. Tristan Beck closed out the game and San Francisco had finally won their first game against the Pirates this season and tying up the series. They finished the game with 11 hits.

Game notes: After losing a heart-breaking walk-off Monday to the Pirates 5-4 the Giants tied up the series in game two with a convincing 8-1 win. The Giants took a 4-3 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning Friday when it all came apart.

The Pirates tied up the game in the ninth and then added a second run to take the first game of the three-game series. Tuesday Giants starter Logan Webb pitched six innings, seven hits, one earned run, and struck out ten hitters.

The Pirates starter Mike Burrows pitched 4.2 innings, allowing five hits, six earned runs, three walks and struck out three. The game got underway under cloudy skies with no rain expected and a temperature around 80 degrees at first pitch.

Wednesday the Giants will be looking to win the series sending their ace Robbie Ray to the mound. He has a 9-5 win/loss record and a 2.85 ERA. The Pirates will start Andrew Heaney who comes into the game with a 5-9 win/loss record and a 4.89 ERA. First pitch for game three is scheduled for 9:35 AM.

Isiah Kiner-Falefa gets walk off hit for Bucs as Giants Lose to Pirates 5-4 in the ninth

Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

By Barbara Mason

It was looking pretty good for the San Francisco Giants (56-57) going into the bottom of the ninth inning in the first game of their series with the Pittsburgh Pirates (49-64). Despite it being a one-run game, San Francisco brought in their most successful closer Randy Rodriguez.

It was a surprising inning from Rodriguez who walked the first batter followed by hitting the next batter Jack Suwinski. Joey Bart tied up the game 4-4 with a single.

With only one out, Isiah Kiner-Falefa grounded into a fielder’s choice Suwinski scored from third and that was the ball game with the Pirates coming from behind and winning 5-4. The Giants again fall under five hundred for the third time this season and the Pirates won the first game of the series after sweeping San Francisco at Oracle last week.

San Francisco scored two runs in the first inning taking a 2-0 lead. Dominic Smith singled Willie Adames home and Casey Schmitt walked with the bases loaded bringing Francisco Devers home for the second run.

It was a horrible start for Pirates pitcher Oviedo who allowed two singles and three walks. He loaded the bases to start the inning giving up a single for the the first run and with the bases remaining loaded walked Casey Schmitt home for the second run of the inning.

The Pirates got up on the scoreboard in the bottom of the first inning with a single run. Spencer Horwitz scored from second base . He reached second base on a fielding error from Heliot Ramos and scored on a Nick Gonzales sacrifice. They had cut the Giants lead in half.

Neither team was able to score in the second, third or fourth innings and going into the fifth inning the Giants were hanging onto a 2-1 lead. San Francisco had a few singles in the third inning but neither team had runners in scoring position for the next three innings.

Justin Verlander finished the game going five innings only allowing three hits, one run, one walk and four strikeouts. He was relieved by Carson Seymour in the sixth inning. Seymour pitched into the seventh inning.

Jung Hoo Lee had a monster hit in the fifth inning, a triple that brought both Willie Adames and Matt Chapman home taking a 4-1 lead.

When it looked like the Giants would take the 4-1 lead into the eighth inning the Pirates Jack Suwinski hit a two run home run and it was a one-run game, the Giants leading 4-3. Giants pitcher Carson Seymour unfortunately walked the first at bat that he faced to start the bottom of the seventh giving up the two runs.

Spencer Bivens took over on the mount in the bottom of the eighth inning looking to protect the Giants one run lead after San Francisco went three and out to start the inning. Bivens gave up a single and with two outs Randy Rodriguez came in to try and get the final four outs. The Giants were able to tag Nick Gonzales out at second for the third out and the Giants were three outs away from winning the first game of the series.

The top of the ninth inning got underway with the Giants looking for at least one insurance run. Pittsburgh pitcher Dauri Moreta carved up the Giants with a fly out, a strikeout and a lineout. It would be up to Randy Rodriguez to save the game for San Francisco.

With one out in the bottom of the ninth inning, Rodriguez had walked Andrew McCutchen and went on to hit Jack Suwinski putting two runners on base. After going hitless for the entire game Joey Bart got a hit to center field allowing McCutchen to score from second base tying up the game 4-4.

In a most disappointing finish to this game Isiah Kiner-Falefa grounded into a fielder’s choice and Suwinski scored for the 5-4 walk-off. It was an especially tough loss for Giants closer Randy Rodriguez who had been dominant this season.

Game notes: After taking a series off the New York Mets over the weekend, the Giants took on the Pirates ( at PNC Park. The Giants had a blowout win over the Mets yesterday winning the game 12-6. In late July, the Pirates swept the Giants at Oracle and Monday night the Pirates continued on that path taking the first game of the series at PNC.

After winning the series over a very good Mets team the Giants looked to have turned a corner going forward and are hoping to finish strong in the next two months. Monday night Justin Verlander was looking for his second win of the season but didn’t get the decision as the Giants lost it after Verlander had left.

After a rough start in this three game series the Giants will be looking to even up the series in game two. Logan Webb will take the mound in Tuesday’s game. He comes into the game with a 9-8 win/loss record and a 3.31 ERA. The Pirates plan on starting Mike Burrows who has a 1-3 win/loss record and a 3.88 ERA. First pitch for this game is scheduled 3:40 PM.
