Last Friday night's line score:
Blake Beavan – 7 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K, 95P/75S
My prediction is that he will make the Rangers staff by Sept 1 next year.

Can anyone explain to me why his K/9 numbers are so low? Sounds like a case of the body snatchers to me.
Whatever. Good pitchers adjust. Can't wait to see him in Arlington.

Blake is a sinker slider pitcher. I saw him in Perfect Game national in 2006. Loved him. He will get to the Big leagues getting early contact, keeping his pitch count down and staying healthy
Coach,
You are exactly right, they are teaching him to pitch to contact right now. Saw him pitch the other night, he looked very comfortable on the mound and throwing with a lot of ease.

Hey HSBW parents......
I obviously searched the net tonight and saw you guys posts.....
Thanks you for the positive and supportive words for Blake! He has just been unbelievable in his quest for the "Show". He has his same confidence yet MLB toned down and while he has been working on certain pitches and pitching mechanics thru his agressive promotions he has maintained the guts and stamina to maintain perserverance for his dream of making it to the "Show".
On another note, it is so awesome to watch a Ranger game and know that we are in contention for a penant and that we have such depth in our farm system! (even if my son happens to be on that farm aspiring to be on the actual Ranger roster) his Dad and I are still pinching ourselves in that fact and that he is back home actually pitching here locally so his family/friends/coaches & supporters can actually watch him play. That Frisco *Dr. Pepper* Ballpark is bar none the best ballpark we have seen for a minor league affiliate!
Go Rangers and Go RoughRiders~~~~~

Oh and by the way, since so many of you have obviously been to the game to watch Blake, his final regular season game at Frisco will be next Wed. Sept 2nd at 7pm and would love it if you attend to come and find me. As you know I am a creature of habit and still keep record of the game right behind home plate. Would love to see old friends........
I will have my RR Jersey on and my hair in a clip because it is so hot!

From Inside Corner:
RHP Blake Beaven allowed seven base runners in 3.1 innings, but it was the weather that ultimately cut his night short. The only run that came around to score on Beaven’s six hits and one walk allowed was a solo blast in the 3rd inning by Corpus CF Nick Moresi. Then the rain came, stopping play for nearly an hour and a half and knocking out both starters.
