AAA - Fresno 10 Oklahoma City 3
Asher Wojciechowski finally got roughed up a bit surrendering 8 runs on 10 hits, including 3 home runs, as the RedHawks (25-18) lost to the Grizzlies 10-3.

Erik Castro, Michael Burgess and Zach Johnson all homered for the Hooks, and Castro and Burgess each had 3 rbis to lead the offense, but the Hooks made 4 errors, walked 9 hitters and allowed 17 hits. Pat Urckfitz was the lone bright spot on the mound for Corpus Christi tossing 2 2/3 scoreless innings.

Tyson Perez allowed 7 runs in the game's first two innings and the JetHawks (24-20) never recovered losing to the Quakes, 10-6.

Chris Epps added two doubles and Joe Sclafani reached base 3 times while Theron Geith threw 2 scoreless innings.

Teoscar Hernandez led off the game with a single, and the River Bandits (23-20) went hitless the rest of the way falling to the Snappers, 4-1. Mike Hauschild tossed 5 no-hit innings for Quad Cities, but Beloit got to the River Bandits' bullpen for 4 runs on 7 hits.

Down on the Farm - 4/28/13
AAA - Oklahoma City 5 New Orleans 3
Making his first appearance since his Major League debut last weekend with the Astros, Brett Oberholtzer earned his first win of the year going 5 innings and holding the Zephyrs to 2 runs on 6 hits. The bullpen took it from there as Kevin Chapman, Josh Zeid and Jose Valdez carried the RedHawks (13-10) through the final four innings and they held on for a 5-3 win. Valdez earned the save giving him an organization-high 6 so far in 2013. Jonathan Villar had 2 hits for the 8th time in 9 games and added his first home run of the season while Marc Krauss added rbi number 23 to lead the offense.
AA - Frisco 4 Corpus Christi 3
Asher Wojciechowski proved he's human after surrendering a 7th inning Grand Slam and the Hooks (13-10) fell 4-3 to the RoughRiders. Wojciechowski had allowed just 2 runs all year prior that swing of the bat. David Martinez started the game for the Hooks and didn't allow a run in 5 shutout innings. The 25 year old Venezuelan's ERA is now at 1.19 on the year. George Springer led the Hooks offense with a pair of doubles as he raised his average to .306.
Advanced A - Inland Empire 12 Lancaster 7
The JetHawks (14-9) saw an early 4-0 lead evaporate in a hurry as the 66ers scored 12 times between the 4th and 7th innings. Matt Duffy continues to be a bright spot though as the third base prospect extended his hitting streak to 15 games. Duffy's only gone hitless in a game once this season. Andrew Aplin slugged a 3rd inning Grand Slam for the JetHawks and drove in 5. Zach Johnson added a pair of hits and his 10th double of the season.
Low A - Great Lakes 10 Quad Cities 6
Colton Cain was roughed up for 4 runs on 10 hits in 3 1/3 innings as the River Bandits (13-8) fell to the Loons 10-6. Austin Elkins and Miles Hamblin each had two hits for the Bandits as every starter with the exception of Carlos Correa had at least one hit in the loss. Correa did walk and get hit by two pitches in 5 trips though, scoring a pair of runs. The 2012 first overall pick is hitting just .200 on the year.
