Robert's Sportscast - 6/22

Welcome to Robert's Sport Report. We went to see a game on June 22nd against the Tucson Padres and the Las Vegas 51's. The Tucson Padres are the AAA team for the San Diego Padres, and the 51's are the AAA team for the Toronto Blue Jays. The final score was 11 to 6 in the 51's favor. It was a very close game tied 6 to 6 until the 51's scored 5 runs in the top of the 7th- thanks to a 3 RBI home run by Adam Lind. Adam Lind and his team mate Travis Snider used to play for the Toronto Blue Jays until the were brought down for some reason. The 51's starting pitcher was Bill Murphy until Clint Everts came in to relieve. Combined they threw 6 strikeouts, two of them looking, and only 2 walks. Together they only gave up 6 runs on 9 singles, 3 doubles, and no triples or home runs. The starting pitcher for the Tucson Padres was Matt Palmer. In the game 2 other pitchers had to be brought in- Josh Spuntz and Eddie Kunz. Between them they gave up 11 runs on 7 singles, 4 doubles, 1 triple and 2 HR. Combined they threw 7 strikeouts, 2 of them looking, and gave up 7 walks. Overall it was an exciting game until the 7th when the 51's  blew it wide open.
