ABOUT LAST NIGHT...: Alberto Tirado made it three straight dazzling starts for the Baby Jays. After Alonzo Gonzalez and Deivy Estrada pitched six shutout innings the last two
nights, the 17-year-old posted five scoreless frames to lead the Jays to a 5-2 win over the Greeneville Astros at Pioneer Park on Monday. Jays starters have put up 17 straight zeroes and
Bluefield won its third straight game. Tirado (W, 2-0) retired the first eight hitters he faced and although he walked Jose Monzon, he immediately picked him off. Brian Blasiks two-out single
in the fourth inning was the only hit against the righty. He walked two and struck out three and won his second straight start. Bluefield rode a season-high three triples on offense, all three of
which turned into runs. Matt Dean led off the second inning with a three-bagger and scored on Emilio Guerreros sacrifice fly against starter Francis Ramirez (L, 5-4). Dalton Pompey tripled
in the fifth inning off of reliever Michael Dimock and came home on Seth Conners single. The third Jays run came in the seventh against former Bluefield pitcher Joe Musgrove. Musgrove
was dealt to Houston in a ten-player trade in July and faced his former team. He pitched a perfect sixth inning, but gave up two runs before his night ended abruptly. Pompey doubled and
Christian Frias tripled him in. Musgrove uncorked a wild pitch and Frias scored on a close play at the plate. As Musgrove walked back to the mound, he was ejected by home plate umpire
Andrew Freed. Tanner Bushue entered the game and allowed another run on Deans RBI single. Pompey had a game-high three hits and scored twice as he finished a homer short of the cycle.
Les Williams pitched well in relief, tossing a scoreless sixth and seventh inning, but Greeneville crept back in the game in the eighth. Two-out run-scoring singles by Brian Blasik and Michael
Martinez cut the Bluefield lead to 5-2 and brought the tying run to the plate. Lefty Joe Spano came in and walked lefty Ariel Ovando, but he recovered to retire Jose Fernandez on a grounder
to wriggle out of trouble. Spano (S, 1) worked around a one-out walk in the ninth to lock down his first career save. The Blue Jays secured a fourth-place finish in the East Division and avoided
last place with the win. Bluefield has a chance to record their fourth consecutive win for the first time this season and their first series sweep by recording a victory on Tuesday night.
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.
JAMES: Righty reliever Justin James makes his fifth straight start tonight. The Ponte Vedra, Florida native was tagged for five runs (three earned) on eight hits on Thursday against
Kingsport. He did not make it through the third inning and took the loss. His last relief outing was against the Astros on July 31. He inherited a jam from starter Kevin Comer with two outs in
the fifth inning facing the tying run. He retired Ernesto Genoves on a flyout then pitched a 1-2-3 sixth inning with two strikeouts to notch the victory. He was signed as an undrafted free agent
out of Ave Maria University in Florida, where he was a Second Team All-Sun Conference selection as a senior after striking out 86 in 90.1 innings.
FELIZ: 19-year-old Michael Feliz dominated the Gulf Coast League to start the season, but things have not gone as well since he made his Appy League debut in Bluefield on July 31. He
has pitched to a 6.33 ERA in five starts. Although he strikes out more than one batter per inning, he has allowed more than one hit per frame and his BB/9 IP is hovering around six. The Azua,
Dominican Republic native went 5-0 with a 1.64 ERA in 38.1 innings to earn a call-up on July 28. He was all over the GCL leaderboards, with his league-leading five wins and 38.1 innings,
1.64 ERA and 0.89 WHIP (2nd in the league), 35 strikeouts and .185 batting average against (3rd). Signed by Houston at 16 in 2010, Feliz made three starts in the Dominican Summer League
that season, posting a 4.26 ERA. Last year he moved to the States and put up a 4.32 ERA in 50 innings of work in the GCL.
THE TERMINATOR: 2012 Bluefield team MVP Seth Conner is close to reaching the league qualifer (2.7 plate appearances per team game) for batting rate stats. The Rogersville, MO
native needs four plate appearances today to reach the 179 PA plateau. He is batting .297, the ninth-highest among Appy Leaguers with at least 175 plate appearances. He ranks second with
a .425 on base percentage and his .846 OPS is fifth. With a walk in 13.7 percent of his plate appearances, Conner ranks third in the league. At .297 (41-for-138), Conner can secure a .300
batting average for the season with a hit in either of his first two at bats tonight. If he starts 0-for-2, he or 0-for-3, he would need two hits to get over the .300 mark.
STUCK ON SINGLE DIGITS: Nico Taylor went 0-for-3 with a walk last night to end his hitting streak at nine games. It is his longest of the season and it is tied for the longest by a
Blue Jay this season. Christian Lopes also had a nine-gamer from July 29 to August 10. Hailing from McKinney, Texas, Taylor was 13-for-33 (.394) during the run.
WELL DESERVED: Two more Baby Jays earned call-ups to Short Season-A Vancouver. Left-hander Griffin Murphy and center fielder D.J. Davis were sent up to the Northwest League
to help the Canadians in their playoff push. Murphy posted a 1.70 ERA in 37 innings, the second-lowest mark by any Appy Leaguer with at least 30 IP (Teammate Brandon Dorsett is third at
1.71). Murphy did not allow an earned run for 25.2 innings between July 11 and August 24. Davis, the 17th-overall first-round pick in Junes draft, put up a .340/.415./.511 slash line and stole
six bases in 12 games for Bluefield. Both players are in Yakima for the final five games of the season as defending-champ Vancouver is a half-game ahead of Eugene for the final playoff spot.
PLAYOFF MATCHUPS ARE SET: All four Appalachian League playoff berths have been clinched and the semifinal pairings are set. The Burlington Royals (40-25) have won the
East Division and the Elizabethton Twins (42-22) have won the West. The Wild Cards are the Danville Braves (36-27) in the East and the two-time defending champion Johnson City Cardinals
(38-28) in the West. Burlington will play Johnson City and Danville will play Elizabethton. There will be two best-of-three sets starting on Wednesday, with the winners playing another best-offor the Appy League championship. The Wild Card will host the other divisions champion in game one before the division winner hosts the second

the winningest team in franchise history.
Vancouver Canadians (SS) - Record: 20-14, 42-29 (1st, Northwest West, Tied)
