I didn't do a write up regarding yesterday's game because I'm tyring to be
more timely with my updates.  However, I think it's worth mentioning that
H Rodriguez had another rough outing.  He allowed 4 earned runs on 6 hits
in 2.1 innings of work.  He did strikeout 6 but also walked 3.  I think
the A's were a little hasty in his promotion, there is no doubting his
electric stuff, he can hit 100mph on the gun (or so I've heard) but with
other pitchers, Cahill, Anderson at A+ with better numbers I wonder
if the A's are going to rethink their promotion.  I guess time will only
answer that question.  Here's to hoping he can figure it out.
.
So on to the current game.  Mazzaro threw 92 pitches (52 strikes) in 5,
allowing two runs, 0 earned (now isn't that a familiar refrain?) while
striking out 5 and walking 2. Marshall pitched 2 scoreless innings and got his
6th hold, while Carignan only needed 12 pitches to notch his second save as
Midland beat Frisco 5-4.  Guzman scored and knocked in two on a homer and single.
Zeringue went hitless, recently promoted Cunningham scored and hit a single.
