International League ( AAA ) - Lehigh Valley 5 (12-11,58-39) Norfolk 3 (8-14, 38-57)
Allentown, PA - Coca-Cola Park
At Bat : 5 R, 7 H, 4 BB, 11 K’s
Josh Breaux had two hits (singles) and two RBIs. Justin Crawford beat out a slow grounder to second base for a single - incredible burst and speed down the line. Keaton Anthony doubled. Cal Stevenson hit a walk off two run home run in the ninth inning!
On The Hill : 3 R, 5 H, 4 BB, 6 K’s
RH Andrew Painter - 6 IP, 2 R, 1 H, 3 BB, 4 K’s - 76 pitches - 44 strikes - very good outing, had one rough inning (4th) in which he was tagged for a two run HR (on a good curve ball that the hitter went down and got) by rehabbing Ryan Mountcastle - velocity held upper 90’s throughout - mix was good, was more Painter like tonight - when Andrew is at his best execution means thinking about it and not just throwing - he’s always been a precision planner which leads to pitch placement. His bullpens when I watched in the past were so precise he would tell the catcher where to put the glove and then would hit it - saw that more tonight in regards to quality pitches - especially impressed in the fifth inning when he bounced back from a rough fourth - to me was his best outing of the year in that regard.
