CLEVELAND (AP) — Travis Bazzana wasn’t concerned when he began his major league career by going hitless in 12 at-bats. The Cleveland Guardians rookie felt that if he maintained his consistent approach, the hits would start coming.
That has certainly been the case over the past week.
Bazzana, the No. 1 pick in the 2024 amateur draft, hit his first big league home run and stole two bases in Cleveland’s 6-4 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night.
“I was just hoping. Today, there was no wind so it carried out. I got it good.
Spencer Jones, the New York Yankees’ top prospect, made his major league debut against the Milwaukee Brewers, and a 104 mph fastball was there to greet him.
“I’ve never seen pitches that hard in my life, and to be able to foul off a couple’s pretty great, so I’ll take that for now,” Jones said, finding the consolation prize after facing flamethrower Jacob Misiorowski at American Family Field.
MIDDLETOWN – There won’t be a need for a playoff victory to make up for a regular-season sweep this time.
Portsmouth made sure of that Friday, May 8, against rival Middletown. The Patriots were on the wrong end twice against the Islanders last spring before solving them in late May on the way to the Division II boys lacrosse title round.
There was no such mystery on this occasion under the lights at Gaudet Field. Rafe Dionne and Teddy Gersen were sharp in attack from the opening faceoff as Portsmouth zipped to a 10-3 win over Middletown.
It’s now for all the marbles.
Florida A&M softball couldn’t secure its first-ever Southwestern Athletic Conference Championship on Friday, May 8. The Rattlers (31-20) lost 8-0 in only five innings to the Southern Jaguars (37-14) at Gulfport Sportsplex on Saturday.
FAMU was outhit 12-1 and had five errors in the drubbing.
Therefore, FAMU and Southern will meet again on Saturday, May 9, for a winner-takes-all SWAC Tournament Championship game at noon.
If the Rattlers had won on Friday, they would have been SWAC champions.
