Aaron Altherr had a single, a double, and a triple, and Guantlett Eldemire had a hit and 2 walks, and ran all over the Grasshoppers scoring 3 runs as the BlueClaws came from behind to take a 5-4 win from Greensboro and even their record at 6-6. And props to catcher Logan Moore, who is playing solid defense and driving in runs in the clutch! But star of this game has to go to Colby Shreve, who came out of the pen, put out an immediate fire, and threw three more nearly perfect innings to pick up a win. Ervis Manzanillo battled through 5.1 innings and some bad luck, but kept Lakewood in the game
In Buffalo, the Iron Pigs hot start continues with an 8-2 win over the Bisons. Derrick Mitchell had 2 hits and a walk, and drove in 4 runs to pace the attack, Domonic Brown added a double and an RBI, and Austin Hyatt pitched 5.2 strong innings for his second win of the year. Hyatt (2-0, 2.20) allowed just 1 UNearned run on 4 hits and 4 walks, striking out 4, as Lehigh Valley won for the 10th time in their first 12 games.
In Richmond, Troy Hanzawa (.333) had 2 hits, and he and Leandro Castro (.300) drove in 2 runs each to lead the R-Phils to a 5-3 win over the Flying Squirrels. Tyler Cloyd was the winner again, throwing 6 innings and scattering 10 hits, NO walks with 2 Ks. Mike Cisco (5 outs, 3 Ks, 1 hit), Jay Johnson (struck out only hitter), and BJ Rosenberg (1 IP, 1 walk, 1 K, 3rd save) tossed scoreless relief. Reading improves to 9-3.
In Tampa, the Yankees beat the Threshers, 6-2. Carlos Alonso had 2 more hits for Clearwater, and it was good to see Anthony Hewitt is off the DL and playing. Jim Murphy hit his 2nd home run for the Threshers.
In Indianapolis, Quintin Berry (.293) had a double, a walk, stolen base #6, and scored a run to help Toledo defeat the Indians, 9-3..........In Rochester, Matt Rizzotti had 2 hits and 3 RBI to lead the Red Wings to a 5-3 win over the Yankees. "Riz" is up to .286, with 5 RBI in 7 games and is forcing his way into Rochester's everyday line-up. Never a flashy player, Matt seems to just get the job done on a regular basis. (The Wings were the visiting team in their own ballpark, as the Yankees are playing home games all over the place while the stadium in Scranton undergoes renovation this year.)............In Charlotte, Greg Golson (.317) had 2 hits and a walk, drove in a run, and scored 3 more to pace the Knights to a 14-2 win over Durham. Golson appears to be ready for a big year, if he can stay healthy.................. Already off to great start is Adrian Cardenas, who had a hit and a walk last night in Round Rock to help the Cubs take a 3-2 win. "AC" is off to a .357 start for his new team....................Hottest of all, so far is Michael Taylor, who had 3 more hits last night in Sacramento as the River Cats edged the Reno Aces, 2-1. The 3 hits elevate Mike's average to a lofty .417! Randy Ruiz (.289) had a hit for the Aces.
In Colorado Springs, the SkySox swept a doubleheader from Las Vegas,2-1 and 3-2. Our boys suffered along with their teammates: Anthony Gose was 1 for 7, with a run scored and Travis d'Arnaud 0 for 3 on the day.............In Tulsa, the Drilliers beat Corpus Christi, 7-1. Jonathan Singleton (.343) had a hit and a walk, but Jonathan Villar continues to struggle. Villar had a double in 5 at bats and is hitting just .174 for the Hooks......In Huntsville, the Stars beat the Tennessee Smokies, 5-2 with Jason Jaramillo contributing a double and a walk for the Stars.
