  • Pries a Bulldog on the Mound by Ryan Reiswig
    STANFORD BASEBALL CLIPS April 6, 2011 Pries a Bulldog on the Mound By Ryan Reiswig There’s a defining moment in every great athlete’s career when they perform on level that made them realize they have something special, something that their peers long to experience. For Stanford junior right-hander Jordan Pries, that moment came in his freshman year, 2009. Pries and the Cardinal were facing off against the No. 2 Sun Devils of Arizona State. This game was especially big for Pries not only because of the high-powered offense he was facing, but because of the opposing pitcher as well. Starting that game for Arizona State was Mike Leake, who since that day was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds and became the first player in 10 years to go from college directly to the major leagues. “We had a 2-0 lead, I struck out ten guys that game, gave up two hits in front of like 5,000 people,” says Pries, an Alameda, Calif., native. “It was one of the biggest experiences of my life. I remember having guys at second and third at some point and I got a big strikeout, got a guy to pop-up. I remember thinking, ‘This is awesome.’” The modest and usually calm Pries got so caught up in the moment, he did something out of character. “In college, that was the most emotion I’ve shown on the mound,” says Pries. “I usually don’t fist pump just because I try and stay fairly collected but I remember I gave a few (fist pumps) that game.” Even though the Cardinal ended up losing that game, Pries proved to himself and the rest of the nation that he can pitch against the best.

  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).
