Down on the Farm - 5/28/13

AAA - Oklahoma City 5 Omaha 2

Jarred Cosart picked up his 5th win of the year despite walking 7 in 5 innings of work as the RedHawks (29-23) knocked off the Storm Chasers 5-2. Fernando Martinez tripled in two runs in the first  and added an rbi groundout in the second to lead the offense while Brett Wallace and Marc Krauss each added two hits. Jason Stoffel retired all 9 hitters he faced in 3 solid innings of relief work as he lowered his ERA to 1.65 in 12 AAA appearances. In 16 1/3 AAA innings, Stoffel has allowed just 7 hits and is holding opponents to a .127 batting average. Jose Valdez pitched a scoreless 9th for his 11th save.

AA - Corpus Christi 6 Northwest Arkansas 3

Michael Burgess homered for the 5th time in 8 games and Ben Orloff and Rene Garcia each had a pair of rbis as the Hooks (31-20) helped Mike Foltynewicz earn his first AA win. David Martinez started the game for Corpus Christi and, despite allowing just 1 earned run in 5 innings, was unable to improve to 9-0 on the year. Folty fanned 6 in his 4 innings of work and even though he only allowed 1 run, his ERA jumped to a whopping 1.08.

Advanced A - Lancaster 10 Rancho Cucamonga 2

Preston Tucker homered and drove in 6 runs and Brady Rodgers improved to 4-1 with 5 shutout innings as the JetHawks (31-20) roughed up the Quakes 10-2. Andrew Aplin had a pair of hits and scored 3 runs and Tyler Heineman added a 2-run homer as Lancaster scored the game's first 10 runs. Chris Devenski worked the final four innings and earned his first save of the season.

Low A - Quad Cities 7 Kane County 5

Jonathan Singleton has returned. The Astros prospect, fresh off his 50 game suspension, homered in his first at bat and added a single and a walk as the River Bandits (28-23) defeated the Cougars 7-5 in a rain-shortened affair. Carlos Correa added two hits and three rbis and Lance McCullers earned his first win of the season by striking out the side in one inning of work. McCullers ERA on the season is now 1.90.
