Just returned from
Here is a bat by bat account of Wood’s performance today:
1st Inning
1 – Borg hits weak Grounder to 1st base
2 – Schoop hits weak grounder to 1st base
3 – Sosa(not Sammy) K’s
2nd Inning
1 – Abreu pops out to Right Field
2 – Thompson K’s (swinging)
3 – Creswell K’s (swinging)
3rd Inning
1 – Nunez K’s (looking)
2 – Sarrento grounds out to Short
3 – Paulino weak grounder to Wood. Paulino swung so hard on the second strike the bat flew out of his hands past 3rd base, landing on the outfield grass
4th Inning
1 – Luster pop foul out to 1st baseman
2 – Borg K’s (swinging)
3 – Schoop K-s (swinging) 4 pitches
5th Inning
1 – Sosa on a 2-1 count hits a double to right center gap
2 – Abreu K’s (3 pitches)
3 – Thompson pops out to right center advancing Sosa to 3d base
4 – Creswell K-s (looking)
Woody looked to be laboring a little in the 5th inning, making a few grunting noises on some pitches, which I hadn’t heard up until that time. Overall today was very successful, if Kerry’s arm feels good tomorrow look for him to pitch next in a rehab assignment with one of the Cubs minor league affiliates.
