Daily Farm Round-Up: 8-25-14 

It was a sloppy night across the farm. The Chihuahuas were the only team in the organization to get a win as the Fort Wayne and Eugene offenses were nowhere to be found. The Missions were completely blown out by the Hooks.

 

Hitting Prospect of the Day: Alex Dickerson

Pitching Prospect of the Day: Zechariah Lemond

 

El Paso Chihuahuas 4, Colorado Springs Sky Sox 3

Rico Noel – CF: 2-4, 2B, Run scored

Jace Peterson – 3B: 3-4, 2B, RBI

Tyler Greene – SS: 1-4, RBI, 2K

Jeff Francoeur – RF: 0-4, K

Cody Decker – 1B: 2-4, HR(23), RBI, K, Run scored

Alex Castellanos – 3B: 1-3, 3B, BB, 2K, Run scored

Matt Wisler – SP: 5.0 IP, 9H, 3ER, 2BB, 5K

Notes: Tonight’s start is Wisler’s 4^th in a row in which he struck out at least a batter per inning. The month of August has easily been Wisler’s best month with the Chihuahuas; over 5 August starts, Wisler is 2-1 with a 3.03 ERA. Since being sent down to El Paso, Jace Peterson has hit safely in all 5 games he’s played. Peterson is hitting .389 over his last 10 games with El Paso.

 

San Antonio Missions 7, Corpus Christi Hooks 23

Cory Spangenberg – 2B: 3-5, 2K, Run scored

Casey McElroy – 3B: 1-5, HR(9), RBI, K, Run scored

Jason Hagerty – 1B: 2-4, RBI, BB, Run scored

Alex Dickerson – RF: 3-5, 2B, 3B, 2RBI, Run scored

Hunter Renfroe – CF: 1-5, RBI, 2K

Austin Hedges – C: 1-3, RBI, BB, K, Run scored

Leonel Campos – SP: 2.0 IP, 4H, 7ER, 6BB, 2K, HR Allowed

Notes: The positives of this game: Alex Dickerson fell a home run shy of the cycle, Cory Spangenberg enjoyed a 3-hit game, and Casey McElroy hit a home run. Dickerson owns an impressive .324/.365/.514 line over 111 AB’s with the Missions. The negatives of this game: just about everything else. The pitching was horrendous and the defense committed 4 errors, which resulted in 7 unearned runs.

 

Lake Elsinore Storm: DNP

 

Fort Wayne TinCaps 2, Bowling Green Hot Rods 6

Trea Turner – SS: 0-4, 3K

Fernando Perez – 3B: 2-3, HR(16), 2RBI, Run scored

Franmil Reyes – RF: 0-4, K

Jake Bauers – 1B: 0-3, K

Dustin Peterson – DH: 0-3, 2K

Nick Schulz – LF: 1-3, 2B, K, Run scored

Kyle Lloyd – SP: 5.0 IP, 7H, 5R, 3ER, 1BB, 6K (L, 6-5)

Notes: Trea Turner’s 8 game hitting streak was snapped tonight. However, Turner is still hitting .302 over his last 10 games, and .387 overall with Fort Wayne. Fernando Perez, who has quietly had a very solid year with Fort Wayne, provided all the offense for Fort Wayne tonight. His 2-run home run gave him 16 home runs and 89 RBI’s on the year.

 

Eugene Emeralds 1, Vancouver Canadians 3

Auston Bousfield – CF: 1-4, K, Run scored

Nick Torres – RF: 0-4, RBI, K

Marcus Davis – 1B: 1-4, K

Michael Miller – DH: 1-3

Felipe Blanco – 2B: 1-3, K

Mitchell Morales – SS: 1-3, K

Zechariah Lemond – SP: 5.0 IP, 7H, 2R, 1ER, 0BB, 3K (L, 2-3)

Notes: Despite pitching well, Zechariah Lemond was tagged with the loss tonight. The Emeralds could only score 1 run for Lemond, and committed 4 errors on defense that led to 1 unearned run for Lemond and 1 unearned run for the bullpen. Lemond, the Padres 2014 3^rd round draft pick, has pitched well with Eugene; he owns a 3.79 ERA over 38 innings pitched.

AZL Padres 5, AZL Dodgers 6

Ryan Jackson – SS: 1-4, Run scored

Luis Urias – 3B: 1-3, Run scored

Michael Gettys – CF: 2-4, RBI, 2 Runs scored

Rodney Daal – DH: 2-3, RBI, Run scored

Rod Boykin – LF: 1-4, 2B, 2RBI, K

Mason Smith – RF: 0-4, 3K

Taylor Cox – SP: 5.0 IP, 8H, 4R, 2ER, 2BB, 3K

Notes: The AZL Padres could have won this game if they got some production from the bottom of their lineup; the bottom 3 hitters combined to go 0-for-12 with 10 strikeouts. Michael Gettys drove in his 10^th run over his last 10 games giving him 36 RBI’s over 50 games with the AZL Padres.
