Down on the Farm - 6/8/13

AA - Corpus Christi 5 San Antonio 1

Jake Buchanan continued his stranglehold on Texas League hitters with 4 more innings without allowing an earned run to lower his ERA to 0.80 in Corpus Christi's 5-1 win over the Missions. Domingo Santana and Rene Garcia each homered for the Hooks (38-23), but Justin Maxwell's struggles continue as he went 0 for 3 with a sacrifice fly and a strikeout. In four games with the Hooks, Maxwell is 0 for 13. Carlos Quevedo tossed 5 shutout innings to improve his record on the year to 2-4. Jonathan Meyer doubled to extend his hitting streak to 12 games.

Advanced A - San Jose 7 Lancaster 0

The JetHawks (35-27) were held to just 5 hits as they were beaten up by the Giants once again by a score of 7-0. Andrew Aplin was one of the lone bright spots on offense going 2 for 4 with a stolen base. Jonas Dufek added 2 scoreless innings of relief while starter Aaron West (2-3, 5.62) was saddled with the loss.

Low A - Peoria 1 Quad Cities 0

Gerardo Sanchez's wild pitch in the 9th inning scored the winning run from third base as the Chiefs defeated the River Bandits (32-27) by a score of 1-0. Mike Hauschild started the game for Quad Cities and tossed 5 shutout innings to lower his ERA on the year to 2.84. Colton Cain followed that up with 3 scoreless innings of his own before giving way to Sanchez in the 9th. Carlos Correa had one of Quad Cities' 5 hits in the game dropping his average to .288.

DSL - DSL Astros 6 DSL Dodgers 3

Hector Roa hit a grand slam and drove in 5 runs as the Astros (4-3) defeated the Dodgers 6-3 in a game shortened to 8 innings by rain. Randy Cesar reached base 4 times (2 singles, walk, hit by pitch), and Arturo Michelena scored twice to lead the offense while Junior Garcia pitched 4 shutout innings in relief to earn the win. Angel Heredia recorded the final out of the game to earn the save.
