ABOUT LAST NIGHT...: The Bluefield Blue Jays ended the 2012 home slate on a high note. Alonzo Gonzalez pitched six shutout innings for the second straight start and
Brandon Dorsett finished the three-hitter as the Baby Jays beat the Kingsport Mets 7-0 on Saturday in the final game of the season at Bowen Field. The two newest Blue Jays
keyed a first-inning rally that gave Bluefield the lead for good. Second baseman Justin Atkinson and right fielder Dalton Pompey joined the Blue Jays from Florida. Atkinson is up
from the Gulf Coast League. Pompey started the season in Vancouver, but missed two months with a wrist injury and saw his first action tonight. Atkinsons two-out double in the
bottom of the first brought home Jorge Vega-Rosado with the games first run. Two batters later, Pompey singled in Atkinson for a 2-0 lead and also stole a base. That would be all
the scoring Gonzalez (W, 2-0) needed. The lefty pitched six shutout innings of two-hit ball in a win over Pulaski in his Bluefield debut on Monday. He followed that up with six more
zeroes and allowed only one hit, walking one and striking out four. Gonzalez retired the first ten batters he faced and 18 of 20 overall. Nico Taylor provided more offense in the third
inning with a two-run double off of starter John Gant (L, 3-3). The Jays added single tallies in the fourth, sixth and seventh innings on an Anthony Chavez fielding error, an Emilio
Guerrero sacrifice fly and Jordan Leylands RBI groundout. Atkinson, Taylor, Vega-Rosado and D.J. Davis led Bluefields 12-hit attack with two apiece. Guerrero was the only Jays
starter without a hit, but he did contribute the RBI and a stolen base. Brandon Dorsett (S, 4) picked up the game in the seventh inning and posted three scoreless frames to finish
the Jays sixth shutout of the season. Bluefield has been involved in 11 shutouts this season, tied with Greeneville for the most in the league.
VS. THE ASTROS: Bluefield took two of three from the Astros at Bowen Field to close the month of July. The Astros won the opener 8-7 on a ninth-inning wild pitch. The Jays
won the next game 8-3 before winning 5-1 behind Seth Conners four RBIs and Kevin Comers pitching. The Blue Jays and Astros split their six-game season series in 2011, with
the road team taking two out of three twice. In Bluefield on August 3, the Jays scored two in the ninth to force extra innings, but Chase Davidsons 11th-inning single won it for
Greeneville. Bluefield won the middle game before the Astros won the rubber game. In Greeneville from August 22-24, the two teams split the first two contests and the Jays won
the third game to win the series and earn a season split.
ESTRADA: A native of Valencia, Venezuela, lefty Deivy Estrada goes for the Jays to open the final series of the season. He last pitched on Tuesday against Pulaski, allowing
four runs and getting knocked out in the fourth inning. He posted a 2.25 ERA in the GCL in 2011, but he had an ERA of 6.94 in Bluefield upon his promotion. He did contribute the
clinching victory in the Mercer Cup last year, turning in five shutout innings on August 10. He allowed only four hits, striking out six without walking a man. He took a tough loss in
the final game of the Appy League Championship Series when he gave up one earned run in five innings, but was charged with the defeat. He spent the 2010 season in the Gulf
Coast League and was in the Dominican Summer League in 2009 when he Kd more than one batter per inning (48 in 44 IP).
TIBURCIO: Six-foot-three Dominican right-hander Frederick Tiburcio faces Bluefield for the first time this season. He allowed four runs in four innings in a no decision at
Elizabethton on Monday. He dealt seven shutout innings of four-hit ball with seven strikeouts in a win over Bristol in the start before that on August 14. The 21-year-old was signed
by Houston in 2008 and after two seasons in the Dominican Summer League, he went to the Gulf Coast League last season and went 3-5 with a 4.47 ERA in 54.1 innings.
CHECKING IN ON THE PENNANT RACES: All four Appalachian League playoff spots and seedings could be locked down tonight. The Burlington Royals are postseason-bound and can clinch the East Division with a win at Bristol or a Danville loss at Johnson City. The Braves will make the playoffs as well and will likely be the East wild card and
face the West Division champion Elizabethton Twins in the first round. The West wild card will either be Johnson City or Greeneville. The Blue Jays can play spoiler and eliminate the
Astros and put Johnson City in the playoffs with a win tonight.
CRAZY EIGHT: Bluefield OF Nico Taylor ran up his second eight-game hitting streak of the season with two more hits last night. The McKinney, Texas native also had an eightgamer from June 29 to July 7. This streak began with two hits in a twinbill opener at Danville last Sunday and he is 12-for-29 (.414) during the run, raising his average to .281.
QUICKLY MAKING AN IMPACT: Two new players joined the Blue Jays yesterday and played a big role in the win. Second baseman Justin Atkinson went 2-for-5 with
an RBI double and two runs scored in the cleanup spot. Outfielder Dalton Pompey hit an RBI single and stole a base in the first inning. Pompey was hitting .294 with a .442 OBP for
Short Season-A Vancouver before a broken hamate bone in his left wrist put him on the DL only 11 games into the season. The Mississauga, Ontario native was a 16th-round pick
in 2010 and split last season between the GCL and Bluefield. He hit .357 and scored four runs in five Appy League playoff games last year. Atkinson, also Canadian, moved up from
the GCL after hitting .259 in 52 games this season. Hailing from Surrey, British Columbia, Atkinson was taken in the 26th round of last years draft. He hit .279 in 12 games for the
GCL Jays in 2012 in his first professional action.
APPY LEAGUE HONOR: Bluefield right-hander Jeremy Gabryszwski was named to the 2012 Appalachian League All-Star Team, which was voted on by opposing managers, executives and media and announced on Wednesday. The honor is more impressive considering there are only three pitchers on the squad. The 19-year-old was the leagues
for right-handed starter and Princetons Blake Snell was the teams lefty starter. Jeremy is 3-0 with a 2.35 ERA in 11 games (nine
