Jorge posts eighth win, Miracle take game two, 5-3
Miracle starter Felix Jorge continued his season of dominance with a 12th
quality start in 13 outings this season to help Fort Myers to a 5-3 victory in the
second game of a series of three with Palm Beach. Jorge went 6.1 innings
and totaled a season-high 10 strikeouts with two runs allowed. Felix scattered
eight hits with one walk and retired 10 in a row in the middle portion of the
game. The offense supported Jorge by building a five-run lead. Trey Vavra
got the bats going in the first with an RBI double. The Miracle plated two runs
with the bases loaded in the fifth on RBI hits from Niko Goodrum and Edgar
Corcino. In the sixth, Brian Navarreto registered a sacrifice fly and T.J. White
added an RBI triple. Andrew Sohn accounted for two Palm Beach runs in the
seventh with a single that knocked in a pair and Allen Staton added a two-out
RBI hit in the eighth. The Cardinals threatened in the ninth by putting the ty
-ing runs in scor-ing position, but Todd Van Steensel locked down the win with
his fifth save of the season.
T.J. getting white hot at the plate in return to Fort Myers
A week into the season, T.J. White was promoted to Chattanooga (AA) due
to a middle infield injury. In 34 games in the Southern League, White hit just
.145 and drove in nine runs. At the beginning of June, White was transferred
back to Fort Myers. After starting off just 4-for-27 in his return to the Miracle,
White has begun to blister the baseball. With 16 hits in his last 45 at-bats,
White is hitting .356 in his last 11 games including two home runs and a third
that will be added when the Miracle complete a suspended game on July 7.
T.J. has multiple hits in six of the last 11 and has slotted into manager Jeff
Smith’s lead-off spot in the order.
Corcino stoking the fire, tapping into hot streak
An All-Star and Fort Myers’ most consistent performer in 2016, Edgar Corcino
has put together a season of mini-slumps followed by prolonged stretches
of success. After a 2-for-26 skid from June 5 to June 15, Corcino has ignited
the hot streak again. Edgar has picked up hits in eight of the last 10 games; a
home run not included from a suspended game on June 26. Since June 16,
Corcino is 14-for-40 (.350) with six runs scored, five extra-base hits and four
RBI. Edgar’s season on-base percentage of .347 is tops on the club for play
-ers that have appeared in over 50 games.
Theofanopoulos provides left-handed option from pen
Since Luke Westphal was promoted to Chattanooga (AA) on April 26, manag
-er Jeff Smith had not been able to call on a southpaw in the Miracle bullpen
until the arrival of Michael Theofanopoulos from Cedar Rapids (A) on June
20. In three appearances, Theofanopoulos has not allowed a hit and has
combined to work 2.1 scoreless frames in relief. With the Kernels in the Mid
-west League, Theofanopoulos had surrendered just 18 hits and six earned
runs with 45 strikeouts and only 16 walks in 32.1 innings. In 21 appearances,
the Midwest League hit just .153 against Theofanopoulos and Michael posted
a 1.67 ERA.
