GORDO COMFY AT THE TOP--Alex Gordon tacked on two more hits from the leadoff position last night, including an RBI triple, as he continues to prove that’s his most comfortable slot in the lineup...manager Ned Yost inserted Gordo into the leadoff spot in the lineup on May 27 in Baltimore and since that afternoon, he has batted at a .348 clip (62-for-178) in 44 games with 30 runs, 18 doubles, a .426 on-base pct. and .926 OPS, while hitting safely in 36 of those affairs...overall, his .306 average from the #1 spot is the sixth best among leadoff men in the Majors with at least 200 at bats, while Gordo’s .393 on-base pct. in that role is third behind only Detroit’s Austin Jackson (.402) and the Angels’ Mike Trout (.408)...since being inserted in the #1 spot dating back to last season, Gordon has hit .305 in 145 games from the leadoff position with a .387 on-base pct...his 29 doubles are tied for first in the A.L. with Cleveland’s Shin-Soo Choo, second only in the Majors to Cincinnati’s Joey Votto (36), who just went on the D.L. with torn knee cartilage. ESCOBAR AMONG SHORTSTOP ELITE--The 2012 All-Star Game has come and gone, but despite not making the Midsummer Classic shortstop Alcides Escobar continues to show why he belongs in the conversation when it comes to being among the top at his position...the 25-year old currently leads all big league shortstops with a .311 average, good for 11th overall in the A.L., while ranking second at his position in the Majors in on-base pct. (.353), tied for fourth in doubles (21) and fourth in slugging pct. (.433)...he is hitting .358 (43-for-120) over his last 32 games...his “worst” month to date was a .295 April, but he’s since batted .310 in May, .333 in June and has a .296 average to this point in July...in the 185 games since bottoming out at .203 on June 6 of last year, Esky has batted .298 (196-for- 658), which is the second best batting average among all big league everyday shortstops (minimum 162 games), trailing only Derek Jeter (.315).

  • Atlanta Braves Clippings Thursday, September 10, 2020 Braves.Com
    Atlanta Braves Clippings Thursday, September 10, 2020 Braves.com Braves set NL standard with 29-run outburst Atlanta breaks Modern Era record in National League (since 1900) By Mark Bowman ATLANTA -- Adam Duvall produced his second three-homer game within an eight-day span to help the Braves roll to a record-setting 29-9 win over the Marlins on Wednesday night at Truist Park. Duvall became the first player to record two three-homer games while wearing a Braves uniform, and his efforts helped Atlanta set a National League record for runs in a game in the modern era (since 1900). “That was pretty amazing to be a part of,” Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman said. “I’ve never seen an offense click like that.” The Braves fell just one run short of tying the modern record for runs scored in a game, set when the Rangers defeated the Orioles, 30-3, in the first game of a doubleheader on Aug. 22, 2007, at Camden Yards. Dating back to 1900, no NL club had scored more than 28 runs in a game. The Braves’ franchise record was 23, a mark tallied during the second game of a doubleheader against the Cubs on Sept. 2, 1957. Ronald Acuña Jr. contributed to his three-hit night with a three-run home run to cap a six-run fifth. But it was his bases-loaded double in the sixth inning that gave the Braves a new franchise record for runs in a single game, opening a 25-8 lead. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Atlanta became the first MLB team to score at least 22 runs through the first five innings since the Blue Jays (24 runs) in a win over the Orioles on June 26, 1978.

  • A's News Clips, Friday, July 9, 2010 Oakland A's Pitcher Vin
    A’s News Clips, Friday, July 9, 2010 Oakland A's pitcher Vin Mazzaro teeming with confidence By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune The depth of the A's young starting pitching is an asset for the organization. For Vin Mazzaro, it's a hurdle. Mazzaro is among that group of talented young pitchers, and when the right-hander didn't make Oakland's roster out of spring training, it was unclear when his next chance might arrive. The opportunity came quickly because of injuries in the rotation, and Mazzaro is taking full advantage. He's looking for his third straight victory tonight against the Los Angeles Angels, who arrive in Oakland for a three-game series. As the A's try to right their ship after being swept in three games by the New York Yankees, Mazzaro's recent emergence offers a sliver of sunshine. "Once you have a good game in you, it kind of gives you a big boost," Mazzaro said. "You see yourself achieving your goals in between starts with what you're working on. I'm just feeling good, strong, healthy. I've just got all the confidence in the world right now." If Mazzaro, 23, is feeding off his positive vibes, he also knows the other end of the spectrum. After getting called up in June 2009 and throwing back-to-back scoreless outings in his first two major league starts, his joy ride came to a screeching halt. Mazzaro went 0-8 with a 7.22 ERA over his next 10 starts and he missed the final month with shoulder tendinitis.
