Down on the Farm - 5/19/13

AAA - Oklahoma City 9 Sacramento 3

Brad Peacock allowed just 1 earned run in 5 innings of work earning his first win as a member of the RedHawks (25-17) despite once again being plagued by a high pitch count.

Fernando Martinez and Jason Jaramillo each had a pair of runs batted in and Che-Hsuan Lin added 2 singles, 2 runs and a steal. Austin Wates singled to extend his hitting streak to 6 games.

AA - Corpus Christi 5 Midland 3

David Martinez improved to 7-0 on the year as the Hooks (25-18) defeated the RockHounds 5-3. Martinez pitched 5 solid innings, Josh Fields continued his rehab by throwing his 7th straight scoreless inning, and Mike Foltynewicz got the final 9 outs to earn his second save. Erik Castro went 3 for 3 with a homer and 2 runs batted in, and Rene Garcia added a pair of rbis of his own to lead the offense. George Springer went hitless, but stole 4 bases.

Advanced A - Rancho Cucamonga 11 Lancaster 7

Matt Duffy's 2-out throwing error led to 4 unearned runs in the 9th as the JetHawks (24-19) lost to the Quakes 11-7. Lancaster wasted 4 homers - one apiece from Telvin Nash (6), Duffy (7), Tyler Heineman (1) and Delino DeShields (1) - in the loss. DeShields (2/5), Joe Sclafani (2/3), Duffy (3/5), Heineman (2/3) and Chris Epps (2/3) all had multi-hit games in a losing effort. Brady Rodgers started the game and allowed 3 runs on 4 hits in 5 innings of work.

Low A - Beloit 3 Quad Cities 2

Lance McCullers' tough luck continues as he once again wound up the losing pitcher despite allowing just 1 earned run in 4 innings of work in the River Bandits (23-19) 3-2 loss. McCullers is now 0-4 on the year with an ERA of 1.72. Carlos Correa had 2 more hits and a stolen base as he extended his hitting streak to 10 games. He's batting .410 (16/39) during that stretch.
