Daily Farm Round-Up: 4-12-14

Notes: There was almost nothing positive about this game. The Chihuahuas were outscored 11-1, and they were out hit 17-3. Cameron Maybin struck out every time he went up to the plate, and Burch Smith was absolutely shelled. This just was not the Chihuahuas day. The loss dropped their record to 5-4.

Cory Spangenberg – 2B: 1-4, 3B, RBI, K, Run scored

Johnny Barbato – RP: 1.0 IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 0K (S, 3)
Notes: Jace Peterson has been phenomenal at the plate to begin this season; Peterson’s 3 hits tonight raised his average to .429. The Missions only had 5 hits all night, but it was enough for Justin Hancock who enjoyed a quality start and recorded his first victory of the season.
Lake Elsinore Storm 2, Lancaster JetHawks 7
Alberth Martinez – CF: 0-3, K, Run scored
Casey McElroy – 2B: 1-3, 2B, RBI, BB, K, Run scored

Corey Adamson – LF: 0-4, K
Bryan Rodriguez – SP: 5.0 IP, 7H, 5R, 4ER, 2BB, 3K (L, 0-1)
Notes: The Storm were absolutely terrible defensively in this game. They committed a whopping 6 errors. Surprisingly the errors only resulted in 2 unearned runs, but 6 errors is completely unacceptable. The hitting wasn’t much better as the Storm only had 3 hits all game. In a nutshell, it was a bad night to be a Storm pitcher.

Tayron Guerrero – RP: 2.0 IP, 2H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
Notes: Jimmy Brasoban was wildly effective in this game as he allowed 8 baserunners over just 4 innings of work yet he only surrendered 2 runs. Tayron Guerrero was effective yet again; over his 4 appearances he’s thrown 7.1 scoreless innings with 8 strikeouts and only 3 hits. Dane Phillips pushed his hitting streak to 5 games. Phillips is hitting .400 with a home run and 3 RBI to start the season.
