Rockies AND D'backs Invade Riverview Park

Submitted by Arizona Phil on

Brian Serven blasted a two-run HR, singled, walked, and scored a run, Ben Johnson hammered a two-run HR, Juan Ciriaco belted a solo HR, singled, and scored two runs, and Hidekel Gonzalez cracked a bases-loaded three-run triple to help the Rockies take a commanding 9-5 lead, but Kwangmin Kwon collected three hits (two singles and a two-run double) and scored two runs, Jonathan Sierra belted a two-run HR, singled, and scored two runs, Jose Gutierrez roped a two-run double and threw out a runner on the bases, and Ruben Reyes (RBI single) and Richard Nunez (RBI double) drilled consecutive run-scoring hits with two outs in the bottom of the 9th, as the Cubs rallied to score four runs over the final two innings and tie the Rockies 9-9 on Field #5, and Stephen Smith reached base four times (HBP, single, RBI double, and a two-run double) and scored three runs, Joey Rose crushed a three-run HR, doubled, and scored two runs, Luis Tejeda doubled twice and scored two runs, and SP Franklyn Soriano hurled five innings of shutout ball with eight strikeouts, as the Diamondbacks thrashed the Cubs 10-4 on Field #6, in an unusual Cactus League Extended Spring Training doubleheader played at the Riverview Baseball Complex Tuesday morning in Mesa, AZ. 

Kevin Zamudio collected three hits (two singles and a double) and Joe Martarano laced an RBI double and an RBI single in a losing cause for the Cubs on Field #6.

Cubs RHP Jesus Camargo extended his "no-hit" innings streak to eleven before surrendering five runs on six hits (including two doubles and a HR) over his final 2.1 IP in the game on Field #6, although he did rack-up seven strikeouts along the way.   

The Diamondbacks were the "home" team in the game on Field #6.

Jose Gutierrez continues to hang. Please hit! Please hit often, over many years!

AZ Phil, curious if you have heard any rumblings about Juan Paniagua, who appears to be getting stretched out as a starter again in Iowa (and having surprisingly good results in his first two short starts). Just an emergency fill in situation or is there a plan to give him a shot there?

BRADSBEARD: Juan Carlos Paniagua was used strictly as a late-inning reliever when he was at Minor League Camp this past March-April, so I don't know if he is being moved back to the starting rotation at Iowa or if he is just getting an emergency spot start here & there while the I-Cubs are temporarily short of available SP. 

One thing I always think about whenever somebody brings up Paniagua is what a pitching coach told me a couple of years ago... that nobody really knows how old Paniagua is, or even what his real name is.

Juan Carlos Paniagua(?) is truly a Dominican Pitcher of Mystery.

    no days off til may 9th.  moves may happen if the pen gets too worked tomorrow.

    On top of all that…Wicks scratched for Sunday due to “forearm soreness.” Bullpen day again starting with Mervis or Wisdom (or Wesn).

  • crunch (view)

    "Morel told reporters after the game that he felt alright, just a little banged up — specifically noting his right hip and both elbows. He did say that he was optimistic about his ability to play on Sunday, though manager Craig Counsell may have other plans."

  • crunch (view)

    rsox putting pablo reyes up to pitch...an infielder...cranking 70+mph stuff.

    ...and of course he gets out of it with no runs scored...that kind of day for the cubs.

  • crunch (view)

    ...and wisdom replaces mervis on the mound to try to get the last out.

    busch is at 3rd, but i wouldn't read too much into that.

    wisdom's thrown a couple in the 80s (one of them 88mph), but both missed the strike zone badly.

  • crunch (view)

    matt mervis is no david ross on the mound.

    cubs run differential getting destroyed.

  • crunch (view)

    matt mervis pitching...wisdom replaces morel at 3rd.

    he's featuring some high-50s thunder on the fastball.

    through 15 pitches, he's straight up throwing BP...all mid-high 50s lobs.  no way he's going to jose canseco himself out of a job.

    on pitch 21 he railed a 75mph fastball missing high on a 0-1 count.  ha.

  • crunch (view)

    he's hugging canario in the dugout cuz morel will shrivel up and die if he doesn't hug at least a dozen people a day.

  • crunch (view)

    and morel is injured...nice.

    morel trying to play LF from 3rd...runs into canario while leaping and comes down ribs/arm-first.

    hopefully he sticks around to finish this terrible game, or at least is going to avoid the IL.

    Amen to that last point!
