Final in Game 2: Beloit 8, @CRKernels 1. WP-Edgar Sanchez (3-0). LP-Miguelangel Boadas (1-2). Teams split the double-header. Cedar Rapids is 9-9.
Dillon Tatum goes 406 feet way over the LF fence for @CRKernels here in T6. 107-MPH exit velocity. Beloit 8-1.
Yes! Now THIS is doing everything you can to promote a pro wrestling angle!
A mess of a B2 for @CRKernels. Three hit batters, three hits (two bloops), an error. Beloit has 4 in for a 4-0 lead. Starting pitcher Migueangel Boadas has been lifted for A.J. Labas.
I gotta say it's been one helluva draft so far for my Chicago Cardinals.
The Kernels @CRKernels are visitors in Game 2 because it's a makeup of a rainout in Beloit on opening weekend.
Final in Game 1: @CRKernels 4, Beloit 2. WP-Zebby Matthews (3-0). LP-Cade Gibson (0-1). Sv-Ricardo Velez (3). Cedar Rapids is 9-8. Game 2 in a bit.
Man, I wish I had learned how to play chess. It'd be nice to get a game or two in in between NFL draft picks ...
Zebby Matthews goes 5.2 IP for @CRKernels. Allows 5 hits, 1 run, no walks and strikes out 7. Just shy of 90 pitches.
Gabriel Gonzalez with a two-run home run down left-field line to put @CRKernels up on Beloit, 4-1, in B5. 103 MPH exit velocity, 388 feet.
I'm sure there is a mathematical reason, but I wonder why teams almost always put the contact play on when there is a runner at 3B and the infield is in? One-hop chopper to SS, runner coming home is meat.
Beloit's Brett Roberts swung and missed for strike three and went immediately to the ground in great pain. Air cast being put on his right leg, ambulance called for. Godspeed, young man. I hate this ...
Big, if true ...
Chase Luttrell just hit a twisting fly ball just over the short, tall wall in LF for a Beloit home run. It was all of 89 MPH off the bat. Hey, they all count! Beloit 1, @CRKernels 1 in B3.
John Klein of @CRKernels is Twin Cities guy who got unexpected call to sign as free agent with @Twins when he was in Northwoods League. He was a catcher until going to Iowa Central @ICCCBaseball, where his pitching coach was Jonas Lovin, a co-PC with CR. thegazette.com/minor-league-s…
Zebby Matthews has 5 strikeouts, including the last four Beloit Sky Carp. @CRKernels lead 1-0 in B2.
Zebby Matthews at 95-96 MPH with the heater in the first inning for @CRKernels. Thinkin' he might be a short-timer here ... #EarlyPromotion #MnTwins
It's April 25, and the White Sox are 15 games out of first place in the AL Central. Wonder what their elimination number is?
⛈️A very active weekend is on the way, with multiple rounds of storms possible, some could become severe. Here's a 🧵on the latest details: 1) The first round of storms will start to move through Friday, with severe storms most likely in the evening and overnight hours.

@jeje66 The picks are in but have to wait for the so called experts to talk forever.
With no due respect to the people saying AEW is back. It never went anywhere. It's been fun the entire fucking time its existed.
Man, they really know how to drag this stuff out…… kind of like the games. Think I’ll go back to watching hockey and read the lists later.
@jeje66 Suicide Squeeze is mathematically safer. Just saying. . .
@jeje66 100% agree. Certainly are times for the contact play. I just think it’s put on far too often and frequently kills a scoring opportunity
@BethMalicki Wow!!! The hatred towards anyone not male and white in central Iowa is really getting bad. Guess we’ll find out how well that works soon. Definitely not the state I moved to 30yrs ago!
Boy, playing the White Sox sure solves a lot of problems.
@jeje66 There are actual baseball games being played, games that actually count, and high stakes playoff games in basketball and hockey, and the big story is watching young men in suits shake Roger Goodell’s hand.
@jeje66 I didn't figure you for a Drake Relays hater...
@jeje66 Wow. Thats putting on the bro tank and heading to hot take beach.
@jeje66 If you would have said after the Cease trade that on 4/25 the Sox would only be 4 games back of the Astros, I would have never believed it.
It's really too bad the Twins don't have the remaining 138 games left on the schedule against the White Sox.
