Bristol White Sox (10-28) at Bluefield Blue Jays (19-21)
Sunday, August 5 -- 6:05 p.m.
Bowen Field -- Bluefield, West Virginia
Game #41
LHP TODD KIBBY (2-4, 3.68) at RHP KEVIN COMER (3-1, 3.74)

ABOUT LAST NIGHT...: Down to their last out, the Bluefield Blue Jays beat the Bristol White Sox 8-7 when D.J. Jones came through with a bases-loaded two-out double to right field
that scored the tying and winning runs at Bowen Field on Saturday. The Jays trailed 7-4, but scored one run in the fifth inning, one in the eighth and two in the ninth as the bullpen threw five
and two-thirds scoreless frames. The winning rally against closer James Hudelson started with one out in the ninth when Santiago Nessy singled and Nico Taylor doubled him to third. Pinchhitter Eric Arce lifted a flyout to left field that wasn’t deep enough to send home Nessy. Christian Frias worked a walk to load the bases and set the stage for Jones, who drove a fly to deep
right over the head of Juan Ramirez for a hit to score Nessy and Taylor and set off a wild celebration. It was Bluefield’s second walk-off win, the first since Jacob Anderson’s game-ending
double on June 23 against Johnson City. The Baby Jays set a new season high with 15 hits thanks to two-hit games from Jones, Nessy, Taylor, Jorge-Vega Rosado, Dickie Thon, Seth Conner
and Jordan Leyland. The well-rounded offensive output should not overshadow the brilliant job by the Bluefield bullpen. Tucker Jensen, Griffin Murphy and Brandon Dorsett combined to shut
out the White Sox on four hits for the final five and two-thirds innings. Daniel Norris allowed seven runs before Jensen relieved him and recorded the final two outs of the fourth inning. Down
7-4, Jensen worked through the fifth and sixth before handing the game to Griffin Murphy. The southpaw followed Jensen’s zeroes with one of his own in the seventh inning. Murphy extended
his scoreless innings streak to 11 and one-third innings and he hasn’t allowed an earned run in 14 frames over his last six outings. Dorsett, who notched the win in Bluefield’s other walk-off
victory, picked up another as he set down six of seven to finish the game. Bristol plated single runs off of Norris in each of the first two innings. Bluefield came back with four in the bottom
of the third on three straight run-scoring hits off starter Jefferson Olacio. Dwight Smith Jr. knocked an RBI double before the hot-hitting Conner stroked a two-run single and Nessy hit an RBI
single. The White Sox roared back in the next half-inning as the first seven batters reached against Norris. That knocked the highly-touted prospect out of the game. The lefty allowed seven
runs on nine hits with one walk and two strikeouts. Bristol catcher Jose Barraza drove in three runs and both Kale Kiser and Nick Basto led the team with three hits. Bluefield crept back in the
game when Conner drove in his third run of the game on a fifth-inning single. They pulled within one run in the eighth on Thon’s bases-loaded walk, but Smith grounded out to end the threat.

VS. THE WHITE SOX: Bristol has struggled this year, but two of their ten victories have come against the Baby Jays. Bluefield opened up the 2012 season in Bristol and rolled to a

7-2 Opening Day win behind four perfect innings from Daniel Norris in his pro debut. These inter-division rivals split the six-game season series in 2011 with the home team winning two out
of three in both sets. The Baby Birds hosted Bristol from June 27-29 and won two of three. It was a series of comebacks, some unfulfilled. Bluefield nearly blew a 10-0 lead in the opener, but
hung on to win 10-6. The middle game saw an 8-0 Jays comeback fall short 8-7. Art Charles made an error in the ninth inning of the rubber game that put Bristol ahead, but in the bottom of
the ninth, he launched a walk-off three-run homer to win it 9-7. The two clubs played in Virginia fom July 12-14. Bluefield won the first game 3-2, but the White Sox bounced back to win 9-6
and 5-4. Bluefield played the White Sox in the 2002 Appy League Championship Series, with Bristol beating the then-Baltimore affiliate two games to one.

- TONIGHT’S PITCHING PROBABLES -

COMER: Baseball America’s 17th-ranked Blue Jays prospect, righty Kevin Comer, came up one out short of the win on Tuesday against Greeneville. He set down 13 of the first 18 men

he faced and cruised through four and two-thirds innings, but three straight two-out hits put the Astros on the board and sent the tying run to the plate. Comer was replaced by Justin James,
who got the last out on one pitch and picked up the win. Kevin was a supplemental first-round pick (57th overall) in 2011 after Miguel Olivo signed with Seattle. After the Shamong, NJ native
pitched his Seneca HS team to the Group 3 state championship, the Blue Jays bought Comer out of his commitment to Vanderbilt with a $1.65 million signing bonus. Baseball America says the
right-hander has “a clean arm action and delivery, and he gets good angle to his pitches.” They added that he has a “live fastball that generally sits around (91-93).” He also throws a curve
that “some scouts think will be a plus pitch in time.”

KIBBY: Six-foot-four southpaw Todd Kibby starts the middle game of the series for Bristol. He was touched for six runs, two earned, in four and two-thirds innings in a loss at Kingsport

last Saturday. The start before that, he pitched seven innings of four-hit shutout ball with eight strikeouts and no walks in a win at Pulaski to nab Appy League Pitcher of the Week honors. The
20-year-old from New Middleton, Ohio was a 37th-round draft pick last year out of St. Petersburg JC in Florida and is in his second season in Bristol. He was 2-0 with a 3.38 ERA in 17 games
(five starts) for the BriSox in 2011. Last year against the Jays, he did not allow an earned run in three innings spanning two relief appearances.

SEEING DOUBLE: The Blue Jays knocked a season-high 15 hits and seven Bluefield hitters notched a single and a double. The Jays set a new high with eight two-baggers, the last
being D.J. Jones’s two-run game-winning hit. That’s the most hit by Bluefield since July 11, 2007 when they also stroked eight as a Baltimore affiliate in a 13-3 rout over Greeneville.

MURPHY LAYS DOWN THE LAW: Lefty reliever Griffin Murphy has been dominant for Bluefield in 2012. With a scoreless seventh inning last night, he lowered his ERA to 1.54,

the fourth-lowest in the Appy League among pitchers with at least 20 IP. The 2010 second-round pick is working on an 11 1/3 inning scoreless streak, including three outings of three shutout
frames. He hasn’t allowed an earned run in 14 innings (six appearances), dating back to July 5.

1,298 DOWN, TWO TO GO: Blue Jays manager Dennis Holmberg moved one win closer to his 1,300th in professional baseball last night. Over 25 seasons as a minor league
he has a career record of 1,298-1,203 (.519). He managed his 2,500th professional game on Thursday. After eight seasons as a third baseman/
BABY JAYS SCHEDULE skipper,
outfielder in the Milwaukee system he began his managerial career at age 25 in 1977 with the Newark Co-Pilots, the Brewers’ farm team in the New

Toronto Blue Jays - Record: 52-55 (5th - AL East, -10.5)
Saturday’s Result: W, 3-1 (11) at Oakland Athletics Today: at Oakland, 4:05 p.m.
Winning Pitcher: Jesse Chavez (1-1) - 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 1 K
Losing Pitcher: Jerry Blevins (4-1) - 2.0 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 3 K
Save: Darren Oliver (2) - 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K
Highlights: The Blue Jays ripped a game-tying homer in the ninth off Ryan Cook for the second straight night,
but this time they came away with the win. After David Cooper’s dramatic blast, Toronto scored two in the
11th on catcher George Kottaras’s throwing error and Moises Sierra’s RBI double. The Blue Jays snapped their
six-game losing streak on manager John Farrell’s 50th birthday. Jesse Chavez, who was called up to the big
leagues on Friday, picked up the relief win.

Las Vegas 51s (AAA) - Record: 64-50 (2nd - PCL Pacific Southern, -5.5)
Saturday’s Result: L, 6-4 Albuquerque Isotopes Today: at Round Rock, 7:05 p.m.

Losing Pitcher: Evan Crawford (1-4) - 2.0 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 1 K
Save: Josh Wall (21) - 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K
Highlights: Jerry Sands broke a 4-4 tie with a solo homer in the seventh inning as the Isotopes earned a
four-game split with the 51s. Luke Hughes and Ricardo Nanita both homered for Las Vegas. The team heads to
Round Rock for a four-game set against the Rangers affiliate starting tonight.
