DEAL

HAYDEN DEAL (Class A Rome, Ga.)

Former Bandys High star Hayden Deal, a left-hander, did not pitch Friday night in Asheville when the Tourists beat the visiting Braves 7-4 before 3,117.

Deal’s last appearance was in relief at Asheville on Wednesday night. It was his 17th of the season and his 15th in a relief role (he had started in his two most recent outings).

He pitched 1 2/3 innings to finish up Wednesday’s game, allowing one hit and striking out one. He threw strikes on 12 of his 17 pitches and faced five batters.

Deal is 4-1 with an ERA of 2.25 with two saves and has pitched 44 innings. He has hit three batters, walked nine and issued one intentional walk while striking out 51.

In his last 10 outings, the former Presbyterian star is 2-1 with an ERA of 2.64 with 30 2/3 innings pitched, seven walks and 30 strikeouts.

The Braves are 46-39 overall and 6-10 in the second-half SAL Southern Division standings. They won a first-half title, securing a postseason berth.

HUNTER HARVEY (Class AA Bowie, Md.)

HARVEY

Former Bandys High star Hunter Harvey is currently sidelined with a shoulder injury sustained while trying to maneuver away from a foul ball into the dugout on a day he was not pitching.

He played catch on Tuesday for the first time since the injury, the Baltimore Sun reported, but no timetable has been announced re when he might pitch again.

Harvey was scratched from his 10th start (June 8) and remains listed as “active” on the Bowie roster. He is on the Baltimore Orioles’ 40-man roster, so if he were to go on the 60-day disabled list he would be considered on the major league roster during that time.

Harvey is 1-2 with 32 1/3 innings pitched. He’s allowed 36 hits, 20 runs (all earned), walked eight and struck out 30. His ERA is 5.57.

Bowie finished last in the first-half West Division of the Eastern League, 8 ½ games back of division winner Akron (Ohio).

On Friday night, Harrisburgh (Pa.) hammered host Bowie 11-0 before 2,466, leaving the Baysox at 37-49 overall.
