I forgot to link to this yesterday, but here’s video of RHP Clarke Schmidt’s nine strikeouts from Opening Day. He threw five innings and did not allow a hit or a walk, though there were two errors made behind him, so it wasn’t a perfect outing.
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (10-8 loss to Buffalo)
- RF Trey Amburgey: 4-5, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI — 8-for-14 (.571) with two doubles in his first three Triple-A games
- 1B Mike Ford: 1-4, 1 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 BB, 1 E (fielding)
- DH Ryan McBroom: 0-5, 2 K
- C Ryan Lavarnway: 0-4, 1 R, 1 BB
- 2B Gosuke Katoh: 1-3, 1 R, 1 HR, 3 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K — first Triple-A hit is his first Triple-A homer
- RHP Chance Adams: 3 IP, 6 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 4 BB, 5 K, 2 HR, 4/2 GB/FB — 41 of 80 pitches were strikes (51%) … not a good start to year three in Triple-A
- LHP Rex Brothers: 2.
