Danville Braves (10-6) at Bluefield Blue Jays (7-8)

Thursday, July 5 -- 7:05 p.m.
Bowen Field -- Bluefield, West Virginia
Game #16
RHP EDUARDO CASTILLO (1-2, 10.67) at LHP DEIVY ESTRADA (1-1, 8.00)

ABOUT LAST NIGHT...: The Blue Jays celebrated the Fourth of July in a big way and Santiago Nessy provided early fireworks before the postgame ceremonies. In his first

at bat coming off the disabled list, the catcher hit a two-run homer as the Baby Jays beat the Danville Braves 4-3 in front of 2,296 at Bowen Field. Daniel Norris started for Bluefield
and struggled with his command despite striking out seven. He walked four batters in three and one-third innings, allowing one run on one hit, a second-inning homer to center
field off the bat of Felix Marte. Tucker Jensen was first out of the bullpen and was terrific in facing the minimum in two and two-thirds innings of relief. The righty struck out three in
recording his first victory of 2012. The Jays plated another run in the fifth when Dwight Smith singled and Eric Arce followed with an RBI double. Another Bluefield run came home
in the seventh when Nico Taylor stroked a leadoff double against Ignacio Geronimo then scored on a Smith single to make it 4-1. Those insurance runs would prove necessary
because of Danvilles eighth-inning rally against Brandon Dorsett. Dorsett worked a 1-2-3 seventh with two strikeouts, but two singles and an error loaded the bases for the Braves.
Marte hit a two-out single to drive in two and bring the visitors within a run, but Dorsett buckled down to get Blake Brown on a groundout to end the threat. Dorsett allowed only the
two unearned runs before handing the game to Colby Broussard for the final three outs. After a two-out error put the tying run at first in the ninth, Broussard (S, 2) struck out Levi
Hyams swinging to end the game. The party kept going after the win with a great fireworks show on the field. Players and fans sat back and enjoyed the wonderful display on a
beautiful evening at the ballpark.
VS. THE BRAVES: The Blue Jays lost the season series to Danville in 2011, but they got the last laugh when they won the East Division title by a game after a great pennant
race. Bluefield was swept in three games in the Bowen Field-opening series from June 24-26, but took two of three at Danville from July 8-10. The two teams were tied atop the
division at 38-27 heading into the final three games of the season at Danville. The Baby Jays routed the Braves 11-4 on August 28, then clinched the title the next night when five
pitchers combined on a three-hitter in a 5-1 win. Danville won the inconsequential finale 19-4, but it was the Jays who playoff bound for the first time since 2002.

ESTRADA: A native of Valencia, Venezuela, this lefty looks to get back in the win column after a nightmarish third inning in Kingsport on Saturday. He only recorded seven

outs and allowed seven runs, though all of the Mets runs were unearned. Estrada potsed a 2.25 ERA in the GCL in 2011, but he had an ERA of 6.94 in Bluefield upon his promotion.
He did contribute the clinching victory in the Mercer Cup last year, turning in five shutout innings on August 10. He allowed only four hits, striking out six without walking a man. He
took a tough loss in the final game of the Appy League Championship Series when he gave up one earned run in five innings, but was charged with the defeat. He spent the 2010
season in the GCL and was in the DSL in 2009 when he Kd more than one batter per inning (48 in 44 IP).

CASTILLo: After spending a year and a half in the Dominican Summer League and a season and a half in the Gulf Coast League, right-hander Eduardo Castillo has struggled
in his first three starts in the Appy League in 2012. His 10.67 ERA is the highest among all qualified picthers in the league and he was shelled in Greeneville on Saturday. He served
up three homers and eight runs in four innings and took the loss. In 54 GCL innings in 2011, he pitched to a 5.17 ERA
WELCOME BACK: Catcher Santiago Nessy had quite a return from the disabled list in Wednesdays victory. He had injured his hamstring in the home opener on June 22 and
missed the last ten games. But he wasted no time in his return when he knocked a two-run homer in the first inning that gave the Jays a quick 2-0 lead against Danville starter
Mauricio Cabrera.
REAL AMERICAN: Tucker Jensen celebrated the Fourth of July by coming in from the bullpen to the strains of Rick Derringers Real American. Inspired by Hulk Hogans old
entrance music, the righty pitched two and two-thirds hitless innings to pick up the victory. In addition to getting his first win of 2012, he also lowered his ERA to 2.13, the tenthlowest mark in the Appalachian League. His WHIP of 0.79 is the fourth-best in the circuit.
TAYLOR-MADE: After starting the season in an 0-for-13 funk, outfielder Nico Taylor has been swinging the bat very well, going 6-for-15 while notching a hit in five straight
games. He doubled in the seventh inning and scored what turned out to be the deciding run on Wednesday.
THE TERMINATOR: Even though he didnt start and received only one plate appearance last night, catcher Seth Conner still extended his hitting streak to four games. He
entered in the seventh inning for Santiago Nessy behind the plate then doubled in the bottom half of the inning. The Rogersville, MO is 8-for-10 over the four-game span.

CHARLES IN CHARGE: When Art Charles walked in the first inning last night, he extended his on-base streak to 15 games, spanning

every Blue Jays game this season. Hes the only Appy Leaguer to reach in every game so far in 2012. Arts on-base streak dating back to last
season is up to 23. The day before he began that streak on August 23, 2011, he had just had a 15-gamer snapped, so the Bakersfield native
has reached in 38 of his last 39 games. His .476 on base percentage is one point off the league lead, in part because his 16 walks also lead the
loop.

Toronto Blue Jays - Record: 42-40 (5th - AL East, -7.5)

Wednesdays Result: W, 4-1 vs. Kansas City Royals Today: vs. Kansas City, 7:07 p.m.
Winning Pitcher: Carlos Villanueva (3-0) - 6.0 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 7 K
Losing Pitcher: Luis Mendoza (3-5) - 6.0 IP, 9 H, 3 R, 1 BB, 9 K
Save: Casey Janssen (11) - 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 0 K
Highlights: The Jays used a steady offensive attack and the fine pitching of Carlos Villanueva to beat the Royals 4-1 and earn at least a split of the four-game set. All nine batters in the Jays lineup had at least one hit and
two players had two (Brett Lawrie, Jose Bautista, Juan Encarnacion). Villanueva turned in six shutout innings of
four-hit ball, striking out seven without a walk. Toronto goes for the series win tonight with Henderson Alvarez
on the hill.

Save: Erik Hamren (5) - 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 1 K
Highlights: Adeiny Hechavarria had two hits, but also made two errors late in the game as Tucson beat the
51s 3-1. Moises Sierra also had two hits, as did Jonathan Diaz. Sean OSullivan took the tough-luck loss as he
allowed only two unearned runs in eight innings.

Wednesdays Result: W, 11-10 (11) vs. Portland Sea Dogs Today: vs. Portland, 7:05 p.m.

Losing Pitcher: Jason Urquidez (1-2) - 1.2 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 0 BB, 0 K
Save: None
Highlights: The Fisher Cats won a raucous 11-10 slugfest with two great comebacks. Down 8-5 in the ninth,
New Hampshire scored three times to force extras. Portland took a 10-8 lead in the top of the 11th. Mark Sobolewski singled home a run in the bottom of the 11th before Kevin Howards two-run walk-off homer won it.

Save: Danny Barnes (21) - 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K
Highlights: Michael Crouse and Koby Clemens both hit two-run homers to help give Dunedin a series-opening
win over Daytona. Jesse Hernandez pitched three shutout innings in relief of Ryan Tepera, setting it up for
Danny Barnes, who slammed the door.

Lansing Lugnuts (A) - Record: 7-6, 54-28 (2nd, Midwest Eastern, -2.0) *1st-half champ
Wednesdays Result: W, 8-4 vs. Great Lakes Loons Today: vs. Great Lakes, 7:05 p.m.

Losing Pitcher: Yimi Garcia (4-2) - 0.2 IP, 3 H, 4 R (2 ER), 1 BB, 2 K
Save: None
Highlights: The Lugnuts trailed 4-2 in the bottom of the eighth, but they broke out with six runs in the inning
to beat the Loons 8-4. Gustavo Pierre broke a 4-4 tie with a bases-loaded, two-run double. Carlos Perez hit his
fourth homer of the year as well.

Vancouver Canadians (SS) - Record: 12-7 (2nd, Northwest West, -2.5)

Wednesdays Result: W, 8-2 at Salem-Keizer Volcanoes Today: at Salem-Keizer, 10:05 p.m.
