Mets Prospects Highlights | Gomez, Mauricio, Houck | 5/6/25

The flamethrower, a 104-mile-per-hour man. Then moved to the bullpen. That great, electric, three-inning start. A couple of Saturdays ago here at Clover Park, where he went viral for throwing 104 miles per hour. He was not throwing that hard that season. A one-two. One-oh-one call, third straight. Spikerman caught looking, perfect pitch on the outside corner at 101 miles per hour. Here it is again from Gomez to end the inning. Gomez will try again here on the one-two pitch. And that one in there for a called strike three. They get the call this go-around on the 101-mile-an-hour strike. A great pitch from Gomez just on the black. Allen from the stretch. It's a soft liner caught on the run by Mauricio. And that will keep Norrie at third base. That's a really nice job by Ronnie Mauricio to get over there on a check swing. It can kind of get you off guard if you're not ready for it. He was. And it's also big to get to two outs while keeping Norrie at third base. Mauricio has looked very good defensively. Just hasn't quite found that consistency on the bat. Here's a line drive that's going to get past the diving Escobar and through for a base hit. Again, asking you shall receive. Ronnie Mauricio comes through with a base hit to lead off the fourth inning. Try and help move around. Ronnie Mauricio over on first base with no outs. Mauricio is running. Here's the throw to second. It's too high. Mauricio is in with a stolen base. That's where the ball got called. Pitch to Houck. He lines it into left field. That's going to get down for a base hit. Mauricio is in to score. Houck turning towards second. Here comes the throw, and it is not in time. Now, it'll be Colin Houck at the plate for the Mets with two outs and nobody on. Flies the first pitch he sees out in the deep center field. Racing back is Norrie. He can't find it, and this one just at the edge of the wall off of the warning track. Houck's going to head down to third, and he is in for the triple. Well, that one just lost by the Clearwater Outfielders. Norrie couldn't find it, threw his hands up. Oluseyi didn't see it either, and it split right in between them, and Houck gets the triple. Clover Park, the Twilight Hour. Those outfielders can have trouble with balls hit that high.
