AAA Tucson Padres held off a late rally by the Fresno Grizzlies for an 11-9 win:
Jason Christian- 2 for 5, BB, SB(1). BA= .400.
Brett Pill(2B)- 3 for 5, 3B. BA= .307.
Thomas Neal(LF)- 2 for 5, 2B. BA= .315.
Hector Sanchez(C)- 3 for 4, BB, 2 PB. BA= .314.
Dan Otero(RHP)- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's. ERA= 0.00.
Christian gets the callup from Richmond replacing Darren Ford who went on the DL. Steve Decker says Hector Sanchez needs some seasoning and the 2 PB's would seem to back that up. Nice offensive game though. I'm really high on him as a future backup for Buster or even a starter. Otero is the only Fresno pitcher who has been able to get hitters out in the rarified Tucson air.
AA Richmond's game was suspended after half an inning.
A+ San Jose Giants vs Modesto Nuts rained out, in late June no less.
Low A Augusta Greenjackets rained out.
Short Season Eugene Emeralds crushed the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes 11-0:
Mike Murray(DH)- 2 for 3, BB. BA= .424.
Kaohi Downing(3B)- 2 for 4. BA= .438.
Brandon Allen(RHP)- 4 IP, 6 H, 6 R, 3 BB, 0 K's, 2 HBP, 2 WP. ERA= 11.32.
Matt Andriese(RHP,Ems)- 5 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 6 K's. ERA= 2.40.
Murray and Downing continue to hit. Not a good day for Brandon Allen. I like Andriese. Was hoping the Giants would draft him.
Rookie AZL Giants were idle.
DSL Phillies downed the Giants 8-3:
Carlos Cartegena(LF, 17 yo)- 1 for 4, HR(2). BA= .140.
Cartegena is a 6 figure bonus baby who signed this offseason. He went 2 for 3 with a HR in the suspended game from the 27'th, so he maybe getting it in gear after a slow start.

i have a feeling that the friars will not be staying in tuscon for long...worse than playing in skysox stadium
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the AAA team that came from Portland? How bad were things in Portland to move to Tucson? (I understand they're now converting the Portland AAA stadium to soccer only.) I had previously thought that Portland might-could be a landing spot for a MLB team someday, but guess not.
