Tater Talk: 2039.46 – Week in Review, 9/1-9/7

Image WEEK IN REVIEW (3-3): Boise rolled to a .500 record for the week, but won two straight to end the week against division-rival Edmonton, who the Spuds currently trail in the Wild Card standings by 3½ games.

ORE-IDA® TATER-TOTS EMOJI SUMMARY OF THE WEEK: 🍂⚾🍂 🤷🏻‍♂️

HITTERS OF THE WEEK: Dennis French - 12-for-28, 1 HR, 8 RBI, 4 SB (.429 AVG, 1.038 OPS)

PITCHER OF THE WEEK: Timofei Bakitski - 1 SV, 7 IP, 4 K, 0 BB (1.29 ERA, 0.57 WHIP)

GAME OF THE WEEK: The Spuds rallied down 6-0 to Edmonton to beat the Jackrabbits 10-6 on September 7th. Francisco Ruíz was roughed up, allowing three runs in the first inning, only to be pulled for Marcos Sánchez, who gave up three runs of his own in 1⅔ innings. The game was still 6-0 after six innings, but with two outs in the top of the 7th, Dennis French hit a two-run single, followed by another RBI single by Yunosuke Terada. The Spuds would take the lead for good in the top-half of the 8th, thanks to a French grand slam. French's six RBI game gives him 103 on the year, the first time the young centerfielder has eclipsed the century mark.
