Voice of A Season Ticket Holder
by David Malamut
Tyler Johnson went five strong innings for the Chiefs, he gave up all
of one hit. That one hit was a questionable one at that. In the fifth inning
Jason Stokes lined one past the third baseman that, could have been called an
error. That would have preserved the no-hitter, but that was not the case.
Johnson, struck out the first four Cougars he faced, and five of the
first six. In all he had nine strikeouts in those five innings of work. He gave up
a walk to lead off the third inning to Juan Garcia. Garcia was then caught stealing
on what has to have been a hit and run play. In the fifth he gave up that
one questionable hit to Stokes. After that he struck out the next two hitters. After
that he got Garcia to pop up to center to end the inning.
Frailyn Florian started for the Cougars at their home opener, He pitched the first
five innings, giving up four hits. Frailyn gave up two runs, but only one of those
runs were earned. The one unearned run happend because Jordan Robison reached on
an error by third baseman Juan Garcia. Florian did not walk anybody, and he also struck out
two Chiefs.
Jon Asahina then came on in relief, and pitched two innings. In those two
innings he gave up one hit, and one run. The one hit was a seventh inning leadoff homerun
to Gabe Johnson to put the Chiefs ahead 2-1. The first hitter that Jon faced he hit.
For the Chiefs Richie Burgess and Joel Barreto came in for an inning each of relied. Neither
off them gave up anything. Barreto did strikeout two hitter.
The top three hitters for the Cougars combined to go 0-9, with six strikeouts.
They put hte ball into play three times, and two of those were groundouts.
The middle of the order also had their troubles they went, 1-7, with
five strikeouts. They put the ball in play twice, Stokes got htat one hit.
The bottom of the order didn't fare much better, they went, 0-5, with a walk. They
had the best afternoon they at least put the ball in play all five times. One of those times, Rundgren
hit a liner to center. Garcia also walked.
The scoring started in the first when with two outs, Jordan Robison reached on an error by
third baseman Juan Garcia, Tim Lemon then doubled to left to score Robison.
In the third inning John Nelson hit a one out homer to center.
In the seventh Gabe Johnson hit a absoulute rope to left that sailed over the left
field deck, I wouldn't be suprised to hear that a train rolled over the ball, because I
think it might've gotten all the way to the tracks.
