Down on the Farm - 6/1/13

AAA - Oklahoma City 13 Albuquerque 10

The RedHawks (31-23) rallied for 6 runs in the 9th as they won a high scoring affair against the Isotopes 13-10. Brandon Laird, Fernando Martinez and Che-Hsuan Lin all homered for Oklahoma City while Jake Elmore, Brett Wallace and Carlos Perez paced an 18-hit attack with 3 hits apiece. All 9 RedHawks starters had at least one hit and a run scored. Brett Oberholtzer started the game for Oklahoma City and failed to make it through 4 innings of work allowing 7 runs on 9 hits in 3 2/3. Alex Sogard ended up earning the win, his first since his promotion, and Jose Valdez got the final out for his 12th save.

Advanced A - Lancaster 12 Visalia 3

Joe Sclafani continued his torrid hitting as he reached base 4 times, homered, and drove in 3 runs in the JetHawks' (34-21) 12-3 win over the Rawhide. Preston Tucker added his 11th home run of the season and drove in three more runs, Chris Epps homered and drove in two, and Brandon Meredith had 3 hits as Lancaster's offense continues to crank out runs. Brady Rodgers pitched 4 scoreless innings of relief and earned the win to improve to 5-1 on the year.

Low A - Beloit 10 Quad Cities 3

Jonathan Singleton finally went a game without homering as the River Bandits (30-24) got beaten up by the Snappers 10-3. Rio Ruiz doubled, homered, and drove in all 3 River Bandits runs and was one of the few bright spots on the day. Singleton was 0 for 3, but did walk and score a run. Vincent Velasquez was roughed up in relief surrendering 5 runs on 7 hits in just 1 1/3 innings as the Snappers put the game out of reach late.

Dominican Summer League - DSL Mariners 6 DSL Astros 0

The DSL Astros (0-1) dropped their season opener to the DSL Mariners 6-0. The game was scoreless heading into the 7th when the Mariners finally broke through and proceeded to score in each of the game's final three innings. 18 year old Elieser Hernandez tossed 5 shutout innings and third baseman Randy Cesar went 2 for 4 to lead the offense.
