2006-05-23: New Orleans 7, Salt Lake 5 #
Willits, R: 0-4, 1 BB
Specht: 2-5, 1 RBI, 1 K
Kendrick, H: 1-3, 1 2B
Gorneault: 2-5, 1 2B, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Mathis, J: 3-5, 2 RBI
Eylward: 1-5, 1 RBI
Smith, C: 2-3, 1 2B
Bland: 5.0 IP, 2 ER, 7 H, 6 K, 0 BB, 4.26 ERA
Rouwenhorst: (BS, 3)(L, 1-4) (in relief), 0.2 IP, 5 ER, 4 H, 2 K, 1 BB, 7.06 ERA
Salt Lake had this one in the bag until Jonathan Rouwenhorst imploded in a five-run seventh inning rally by New Orleans; Rouwenhorst faced seven batters and only retired two, while giving up five hits and a walk. Chris Bootcheck, now being used out of the bullpen, pitched an inning and a third of scoreless ball. Nick Gorneault homered. The Bees' two errors, one each by shortstop Brian Specht and reliever Nate Bland, didn't contribute to the run total.
2006-05-23: Arkansas 0, Frisco 6 #
Rodland: 2-4, 1 K
Wood: 1-4, 1 2B, 1 K
Wilson: 0-4
Brown: 1-2, 2 BB
Smith, J: (L, 3-4), 6.0 IP, 3 ER, 7 H, 3 K, 1 BB, 1 HR, 4.59 ERA
Armando Galarraga and three other relievers five-hit the downward-spiraling Travs. Jesse Smith posted a quality start but got the loss anyway.
2006-05-23: Rancho Cucamonga 3, High Desert 6 #
Remole: 3-5, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 K
Rodriguez, S: 1-4, 1 K
Collins: 0-4, 3 K
Reilly: 2-4, 1 RBI, 2 K
Lopez: 1-4, 1 K
Toussaint: 1-2, 2 BB, 1 K
Leblanc: 2-3, 1 3B, 1 BB
Posey: (L, 1-4), 6.0 IP, 4 ER, 9 H, 1 K, 3 BB, 2 HR, 4.89 ERA
Not a terrible outing by Micah Posey, but it wasn't enough, as Mavericks starter Billy Buckner became the first six-game winner in the Cal League. Quakes pitchers surrendered three home runs in the loss. Gotta love those two walks by Drew Toussaint.
2006-05-23: Kane County 6, Cedar Rapids 5 #
Statia: 1-5, 1 2B
Albano: 2-5, 1 K
Renz: 1-4, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 BB, 1 K
Trumbo: 1-3, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 BB
Martinez: 0-2, 2 BB, 2 K
Mendoza: 6.0 IP, 3 ER, 3 H, 4 K, 5 BB, 5.34 ERA
Didjurgis: (BS, 2)(L, 0-2) (in relief), 0.2 IP, 2 ER, 1 H, 2 K, 2 BB, 3.46 ERA
Mark Trumbo actually had a good night at the plate following all the bad ones. Let's see more of that. Tommy Mendoza got a quality start in the loss; Tim Didjurgis picked up the loss, and his ERA is starting to look very pedestrian.
2006-05-23: AZL Angels did not play
2006-05-23: Orem did not play
2006-05-23: Las Vegas 0, Round Rock 8 #
Guzman, J: 0-4, 2 K
Loney: 0-3
Juarez: (L, 3-4), 4.1 IP, 5 ER, 6 H, 3 K, 3 BB, 2 HR, 3.97 ERA
Miller: 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 1 K, 1 BB, 0.00 ERA
Carrara: 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 0.90 ERA
Round Rock starter Philip Barzilla — is that some kind of Japanese movie monster that attacks pubs? — one-hit the 51's, retiring 19 in a row, striking out nine over the game. Meantime, Gio Carrara continues his good works, leading to me wondering how many more of those zero frames he can get, who he might end up replacing on the 25-man, and when.
2006-05-23: Jacksonville 7, Huntsville 1 #
Abreu: 0-5, 2 K
Hu: 0-5
Kemp: 1-4, 2 K
LaRoche: 1-2, 2 BB
Ruggiano, J: 2-3, 1 2B, 1 3B, 1 BB
Raglani: 2-4, 2 K
Cresse: 3-3, 2 HR, 7 RBI, 1 BB
Orenduff, J: 0-3, 2 K
Orenduff, J: (W, 3-2), 7.0 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 6 K, 1 BB, 3.25 ERA
Hoorelbeke: 2.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 2 K, 0 BB, 0.33 ERA
A good old-fashioned beatdown, highlighted by a three-run ninth against Andy Pratt, who was the second to fall prey to a Brad Cresse three-run jack. Cresse also hit a three-run dinger in the second inning. Justin Orenduff had a very good outing in a row, retiring the first nine batters; you may recall his May 18 game, in which he pitched six consecutive hitless innings. Not to be forgotten: multihit games by Justin Ruggiano, Anthony Raglani, and three times on base for Andy LaRoche.
2006-05-23: Vero Beach 5, Lakeland 6 #
Russ: 2-5
Hoffmann: 1-4
Dewitt: 1-4
Dunlap: 0-3, 1 RBI, 1 BB
Denker, T: 1-3, 1 2B, 1 RBI
Johnson, B: (L, 2-3), 5.0 IP, 6 ER, 8 H, 2 K, 3 BB, 1 HR, 4.10 ERA
Pimentel: 3.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 4 K, 0 BB, 3.86 ERA
Is it just me? Vero seems to be having a lot of games like this lately, losing by just one run. A poor game by Blake Johnson, who gave up all of Lakeland's six runs, all earned.
2006-05-23: Charleston 3, Columbus 5 #
De Jesus: 1-4, 1 BB
Locke: 3-5, 1 3B, 3 RBI
Sutherland: 2-4, 1 2B, 1 BB, 1 K
McDonald: 5.2 IP, 2 ER, 4.34 ERA
Pratt: (W, 2-2) (in relief), 1.2 IP, 0 ER, 2 H, 1 K, 4 BB, 3.86 ERA
Yay! Another Catfish win! Multihit games from Andy Locke and David Sutherland, including a bases-clearing triple by Locke; the pitching was just good enough to get the win.

Bootcheck now only out of the 'pen? what up with that? just starting to groom him for his MLB role i suppose ......
 
Rob, how do you get the data for this? I've tried pulling from MILB.com but I just get the javascript, not actual contents.

Thanks.
 
I crawl the Javascript data itself. It took quite a while to figure out how to get it all, but once done it's quite impressive. The O'Reilly Baseball Hacks book also shows you that the MILB stuff is all available as XML on a webserver, which is even easier to parse.
