Late game double by Bolinger clinches Pelican's 6th straight "W"

Pitching matchup: Myrtle Beach- Andrew Faulkner (0-1, 4.58), Stockton- Michael Ynda (0-9, 10.20)

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers got a couple clutch doubles in the 8th and 9th innings to prevail in a 2-run ballgame yesterday evening at Banner Island Ballpark in Stockton, CA.

The home-town Stockton Ports wanted to strike first against the Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers, the Myrtle Beach Pelicans, after the previous game's blowout, and they did so successfully off of Myrtle Beach lefty-starter Andrew Faulkner. Ports' catcher Ryan Gorton would put his team on the board in the 2nd inning with a solo shot to lead off the inning, and it was the only run either team would score until the middle innings.

In the fifth inning, Myrtle Beach got two runs of their own from back to back 2 out RBI base knocks by Luis Mendez (SS) and Jorge Alfaro (C). The Pelicans would get 5 hits in their half of the inning.

Unfortunately for Massey's Myrtle Beach squad, Stockton also got 5 hits in the inning, and 3 runs to boot, all off Faulkner. 4-2, Ports.

3B Nick Vickerson would bring the birds within one run in the 6th inning with a 2-out RBI single, and from that point forward Myrtle Beach took control of the action.

THE BOJANGLES PLAY OF THE GAME took place in the 8th inning when Pelican outfielder Royce Bolinger doubled to center, driving in two runs, giving the birds a 1-run lead.

Joey Gallo, 2014 Carolina League MVP
By Adam J. Morris on Aug 28 2014

Gallo MVP.jpg

Joey Gallo has been named the Carolina League MVP for the 2014 season

To say Gallo was dominant in his 58 games for the Pelicans would be an understatement...he put up a .323/.463/.735 line that included 21 home runs, and catapulted himself from a fringe top-100 prospect to a consensus top 20 prospect in the game.

The Pelicans have the best record in the Carolina League.

Pitching matchup: Myrtle Beach- Victor Payano (5-2, 4.98), Stockton- Bobby Wahl (0-2, 4.06)

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers couldn't stretch the win streak to seven games on Thursday night, falling on the road on the west coast.

In the top of the first, Pelican's second baseman Christopher Bostick homered to left to give Myrtle Beach an early 1-0 lead.

Between the 4th and 5th innings, Myrtle Beach got an RBI single from DH Kevin Torres and an RBI double from red-hot outfielder Zach Cone, who's trying to make a run at a spot on the all-star team.

That was nice, but nothing compared to what the home team would get in 3 innings combined.

In the bottom of the 4th, 5th, and 6th innings, the Ports would collect 11 hits, 9 runs, draw 3 walks, and mash 2 bombs and go on to win by 6 runs, deflating Pelican nation for one night.

GAME TWO : Pitching matchup: Myrtle Beach- Chad Bell (1-0, 2.95), Lancaster- Mark Appel (0-2, 4.42)

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers couldn't find a way to win on Saturday at home in two chances against the 2nd place Lancaster JetHawks, who are closing in on Myrtle Beach's division lead with just a few games remaining until the first half champion is crowned and a playoff birth is born for one of the two squads.

In game one, Myrtle Beach starter Sam Wolff would go 4.1 innings, allowing 8 hits, and 5 earned runs while striking out 5 JetHawk batters. The Pelican's bullpen wasn't much better, in particular lefty- Sam Stafford, who in the 9th inning gave up a 2-run homer to center to Lancaster CF Ronnie Mitchell.

The Pelicans would get home runs by OF Zach Cone, who went 2-4, and INF Edwin Garcia, who went 2-3, but Myrtle Beach would still fall at the claws of the JetHawks.

Final Score.jpg
Myrtle Beach 3, Lancaster 8

In game two, The Pelicans got much better starting pitching than the first match up of the evening, out of lefty-starter Chad Bell, who's new to the rotation. Bell would go on to pitch 87 pitches in 6.1 innings of work, giving up 4 hits and 3 earned runs, while only walking one batter and striking out 6. The home-town Pelicans would have big days from OF Zach Cone (3-5, 2B, 1 RBI), 2B Christopher "Boom" Bostick (2-5, 2B, 1 R, 1 RBI), and 1B Preston Beck (3-4, 1 R, 1 RBI), but their efforts still wouldn't be able to save the Myrtle Beach Birds on this night because of a bullpen implosion and a critical mishap by CF Nick Williams.

The Myrtle Beach bullpen didn't perform well at all when they were needed most as Justin Sprenger, Sam Stafford, Jason Knapp, and Jose Leclerc all combined to allow 5 hits and 3 runs in just 2.2 innings.

Myrtle Beach starter Andrew Faulkner needed to pitch a great game, and did, with 2nd place Lancaster trying to catch Myrtle Beach with the first half championship battle coming to a close soon

Pitching matchup: Myrtle Beach- Andrew Faulkner (0-1, 4.91), Lancaster- Vincent Velasquez (3-6, 4.21)

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers won a thriller Sunday night.

The game started off quickly with a first pitch double by RF Zach Cone to kick off the bottom of the first inning in style. With two outs, a red hot Preston Beck (1B) would drive him in, giving the Pelicans an early 1-0 lead.

In the top of the 2nd, Myrtle Beach starter Andrew Faulkner gave up a game-tying solo shot off the bat of OF Tanner Mathis. Lancaster would pick up another run in the top of the forth inning from a sac fly, and the 'Hawks would lead by one run going to the bottom of inning 7 where we pick up the next bit of action.

With one away in the inning, LF Nick Williams grounded to right for a single, which finally chased Lancaster starter Vincent Velasquez, whom the Pelicans had a hard time with all night. Manager Massey decided to play for the tie and have his utility infielder Luis Mendez put down a sac bunt, which worked to perfection and it paid off as next batter, the new, young Myrtle Beach sensation Lewis Brinson (CF) singled in the tying run. Here's a quick look at Brinson:

20140726_211822.jpg
Texas Rangers #8 prospect Lewis Brinson has grown up quick since his call up to Myrtle Beach. Here, he ties the game with a single against 2nd place Lancaster in an important match up

Skipping forward to the bottom of the 9th inning. After 1B Preston Beck struck out to start the half inning, 3B Edwin Garcia picked up a single to put the winning run on first base. With the score tied at 2 a-piece, Nick Williams who singled earlier in the ballgame, flew out. With two away now in the bottom of the ninth, utility infielder Luis Mendez stepped in again, flashing his shiny .221 batting average. Perhaps the mistake of the season happened next for Lancaster when Mendez hit a simple grounder to 3rd base and JetHawk 3B Rio Ruiz's throw to first fell short and it couldn't be picked up by 1B Chase McDonald. The next batter for Myrtle Beach, Lewis Brinson, knew it was his time to shine and he finished the game off with an "!" with THIS pefectly placed single right over 2B Austin Elkins' head and 3B Edwin Garcia slid across home plate as the game winning run:

Andrew Faulkner makes jump to Double-A

By Nathan Barnett / Myrtle Beach Pelicans

Pelicans pitcher Andrew Faulkner departs making his first venture to Double-A level of his career after a solid campaign with the Birds this season. (Robert Gurganus / Myrtle Beach Pelicans)

MYRTLE BEACH, SC. - The Texas Rangers announced the following transactions on Saturday that affect the roster of the Myrtle Beach Pelicans. Aiken, South Carolina native Andrew Faulkner has been promoted to the Double-A Frisco RoughRiders.

Faulkner, 21, earns his first promotion to Double-A of his career. He leaves the Carolina League with the second most strikeouts in the circuit (100).. In 104 1/3 innings, he has allowed 86 hits and walked 31. He is currently fourth in the league in opponents' batting average (.228) and fifth in WHIP (1.12).

The lefty put together two separate stretches this season of more than 15 consecutive scoreless innings, the longest of which lasted 18 frames from July 1-July 16 and is the longest such stretch by a Pelicans pitcher this season. Of his 21 outings, eight were scoreless and he allowed three or fewer runs in 16 of his 18 starts. The Rangers drafted Faulkner in the 14th round of the 2011 MLB June Amateur Draft out of South Aiken High School.

Faulkner is 12th different Pelican to be promoted to Double-A this season and joins former 2014 Pelicans Keone Kela, Odubel Herrera, Joey Gallo, Chi Chi Gonzalez, Will Lamb, Alexander Claudio, Hanser Alberto, Chris Grayson, and Martire Garcia, who-aside from Grayson are all currently on the Frisco roster.

Birds don't "flock" around, clinch playoff spot

Birds clinch.jpg

In front of a good crowd of 6,058 Myrtle Beach fans, the Pelicans didn't dissapoint.

The action on the scoreboard began in the bottom of the third inning when Pelicans' second baseman Christopher Bostick punched an RBI double to left, scoring Royce Bolinger with two outs, who singled and was sac-bunted over to second by 3B Luis Mendez, giving Myrtle Beach a 1-0 lead.

The scoring would continue for the birds in the inning, when first baseman Preston Beck doubled down the left field line, driving in both Christopher Bostick and LF Zach Cone, who walked. 3-0 MB.

In the forth inning, after a fielding error by the Lancaster second baseman, CF Nick Williams tripled, followed by a Royce Bolinger RBI single right past the Lancaster third baseman. 5-0 MB.

Myrtle Beach would add one more run in the bottom of inning eight, after Manager Massey subbed in all his replacements including backup catcher David Lyon who had been on a terrible cold streak and had been not playing much because of it, prior to Saturday's game. Lyon came through with the 6th and final RBI of the night from a sac-fly.

The JetHawks of Lancaster made 3 errors during the course of the game. Although their pitching staff allowed 6 runs, only 2 of them were earned. The mistakes made by Lancaster cost them a chance at the first half championship, as Myrtle Beach cruised to a shutout victory, claiming the first half title.

Birds and Ports split first two games of the final series of the first half

GAME ONE : Pitching matchup: Myrtle Beach- Sam Wolff (4-5, 6.02), Stockton- Dillon Overton (3-2, 6.03)

GAME TWO : Pitching matchup: Myrtle Beach- Luis Parra (3-3, 3.86), Stockton- Ryan Doolittle (0-0, 5.40)

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers lost game one at home of the four game set against the last-place Stockton Ports, but rebounded well in game 2.

In game one, the only positive of the night for the Myrtle Beach faithful was that they went home with free Bojangles'. Myrtle Beach starter Sam Wolff struck out lead off man Boog Powell, the Stockton CF, who was the "Bo Batter of the Game". If the Pelicans struck out Powell at any point of the game, the fans would go home with a free box of chicken and fries, with a biscuit from southern favorite restaurant, Bojangles', and Wolff got the job done by getting Powell to chase a 2-2 fastball high and in in the first inning.

Unfortunately, that was the lone excitement for Myrtle Beach fans, as their team would fall to a shutout defeat. Player of the game, Dillon Overton, the Stockton starter put on a show, making the Pelican hitters look weak at the plate all night, throwing a complete game shutout while striking out 7.

FINAL SCORE: Myrtle Beach 0, Stockton 7

In game two, the Pelicans got much better starting pitching than the first match up of the series and managed to put pressure on the Ports of Stockton by putting up 7 runs of their own in the victory.
