Day Thirteen Hundred and Ninety-Three

The Fifteenth Daddy Start

We started off yesterday's game with a K (strikeout)! I'm always happy when that happens! 

Amelia on the other hand...

Strikeout or not, DAY GAMES are just totally not her thing. Which is a problem seeing as - of course - the Curse is still in effect as Daddy threw in his third straight day game yesterday. Hahaha! Mama and Dada seem to be coping with the bad luck pretty well, but Baby...she flat out hates watching baseball in the sweltering, muggy, thick Louisiania heat. Can't say I blame her. Yesterday it was 94 degrees at 4 PM with a heat index of 107! She was a sweaty, sticky, exhausted, and refusing to sleep mess...but Daddy...

He was anything but a mess! 

Adam threw maybe one of his best games yesterday: a seven inning, rain shortened (not weird haha), complete game shutout! For those of you who don't know what that means, Adam pitched the entire game and didn't let the other team score! He also got his second hit of his pro career (!!!) and scored the second run of the game (the picture above is him running home)! With two quality starts this week, Adam earned himself a few honors. He's one of MiLB's Pitchers of the Week, he's on MLB's Top Prospect Team of the Week, and he's also the Pacific Coast League's Pitcher of the week! Add that to his selection to the PCL AAA All-Star Team, and Dad's had quite the run of it as of late. Way to go Adam!! We're all so proud of you and encouraged by your persistence and hard work! 

 Below are a few fun articles!

Oh! But before that, his line:

7IP (innings pitched), 2H (hits), 0R (runs), 1BB (base on balls AKA walks) (yaaaay!), 7K (strikeouts), a hit, a run scored, a CG (complete game), a SO (shutout) and the W (win)!

He's now 8-2 (8 wins, 2 losses) with a 2.33 ERA (earned run average)

(Hope that helps :D )
