One night after going twelve innings with the Hammerheads overcoming a 4-0 Threshers lead it would be more of the same on Friday night with the Hammerheads waiting until their final regulation at bat to grab their first three runs of the game and force overtime.

The Threshers have added two new pitchers, Santo Hernandez and Jon Velasquez and a new outfielder Steve Susdorf, while Manny Ayala was released to begin the second half of the season. Additionally Yohan Flande and ex-Thresher Kyle Drabek have both been honored by being invited to the All-Star Futures game this year.

The team began their second season facing the Florida State League’s other sharks, the Jupiter Hammerheads at Jupiter beginning an eight game road trip that will include four games at Palm Beach. After this road trip the rest of the season will be chock full of home games. 38 of the remaining 62 games will be at Brighthouse Field, so hopefully the team can take advantage of the home stadium and make a run at the playoffs.

Threshers Second Season Begins Thursday

After starting the season by leading the division for the first month of the year, the Threshers finished with a disappointing 32-34 record in the first half. The second season begins on Thursday however with all team’s record starting over at 0-0.

Let’s GO THRESHERS! The second half is yours!

New Faces Heading to Clearwater

The second half begins Thursday, June 25th with all team’s records starting over at 0-0. The winner of the second half will face the Brevard County Manatees (winners of the first half) in the playoffs this year. Rumor has it that we will see several new faces on the team within the next few days, and perhaps as soon as Monday the 22nd. OF Steve Susdorf, starting pitcher Jon Velasquez and starting pitcher Santo Hernandez have been officially announced as promotions from Lakewood, and word is that Tyler Cloyd will join them in Clearwater after the SAL All-Star Game on Tuesday the 23rd.

That should mean some players from Clearwater may be moved up, or players could be released which is fairly typical for this time of year just after the draft. So far Reading has not announced any players being promoted, so that likely means we will see some Threshers players released today. Stay tuned here for news as it happens this afternoon.
