SKEETERS CANCEL BALLOON RELEASE, WILL DONATE TICKET PROCEEDS HONORING #MALEAHDAVIS Fans can still purchase tickets to Tuesday’s game scheduled to start at 7:05 p.m. and use the #promocode “MALEAH” and proceeds will be donated to #ChildAdvocates . #SUGARLAND , #Texas — The #SugarLandSkeeters will honor Maleah Davis during Tuesday night’s game at #ConstellationField , but it won’t be with a balloon release. The team announced on Facebook that they’ve canceled the scheduled release of balloons, but will honor her memory in a different way before the game. Ticket sales for the game will also go to a good cause. Skeeters General Manager Tyler Stamm issued this statement Monday night: “We have confirmed with the event organizers that we will NOT be releasing balloons prior to tomorrow’s game. We will still be honoring Maleah before the game in a different fashion.” The  Skeeters acknowledged on Facebook that they were exploring alternatives to the balloon release after someone explained that the balloons are an environmental hazard. Fans can purchase tickets to Tuesday’s game scheduled to start at 7:05 p.m. and use the promo code “MALEAH” and proceeds will be donated to Child Advocates. Tickets can be purchased at sugarlandskeeters.com or by calling the TDECU Ticket Office at 281-240-HITS. Maleah Davis was found dead in Arkansas last month. Her stepfather, Derion Vence, originally told investigators that she was kidnapped in north Houston, but later said her death was an accident and reportedly told Houston activist Quanell X where to find her body. A funeral was held over the weekend. #justiceformaleah https://www.instagram.com/p/BzJrrrAh83N/?igshid=1bquy5cwzjayr

Bluefish At A Glance

The Bridgeport Bluefish are tied for 2nd place with the Somerset Patriots; both are 21-19 and just one game behind the first place Long Island Ducks.

While Bridgeport continues a 7 game series against the Sugar Land Skeeters through Sunday, the Patriots will be facing the York Revolution (22-17) and the Ducks will be playing the last place Camden Riversharks (17-23). To say this will be a pivotal weekend for all three teams would be an understatement.

Sabatella/Burroughs Post-Trade Watch

OF Bryan Sabatella for the ‘Fish: .279/.360/.302, 8 for 19 in current series vs Sugar Land

INF Sean Burroughs for the Ducks: .370/.412/.457, 10 RBI, 5 R

Offense

OF Welington Dotel’s on-base streak ended on August 16 at 14 games.

Guess who’s hitting .300 since the start of the York series on August 13th? 1B/DH ANDRES RODRIGUEZ (9 for 30)!! How cute. 

3B Wilson Batista has been an offensive leader since joining the ‘Fish in July with a .307 batting average and hitting .333 in the month of August. Batista had spent time in the Mexican League and with the Atlantic Leagues Barnstormers coming to Bridgeport. 

Pitching

Reliever-turned-starter Rob Carson has only given up one earned run in his last 4 starts. In those 26.1 innings, he struck out 34 batters.

Reliever Scott Shuman has given up only one earned run in his 17 appearances since signing with the Fish on June 30th (15.2 IP, 19 K).

Current Series Bluefish vs Skeeters, 1-3

Bluefish ace Rob Carson pitched 8 phenomenal innings for the win in Game 1.

Games 2 & 3 were riddled with Bridgeport errors; 6 errors led to 7 unearned runs for the Skeeters across the two games. The Bluefish stranded 17 runners on base in the process.

Game 4 marked starting pitcher Cory Riordan’s Bluefish return and was possibly his worst start. He gave up 6 earned runs by the 5th inning. Riordan was pulled out of the 5th inning after giving up back to back homeruns without having gotten the first out.

Tonight should be newbie starting pitcher David Anderson’s second start for Bridgeport.  Anderson’s debut was promising (5.2 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 6 BB). That start was on August 15th against the York Revolution, a better offensive team than Sugar Land. Sugar Land’s Matt Wright (6-7, 4.41 ERA, 1.47 WHIP) is due to start. The Bluefish have faced Wright twice; in early June they were shut down by Wright, in mid-July the Fish owned him. Looks like tonight can go either way.

Watch tonight’s game live on ESPN3, coverage starts at 7:45 pm.
