Down on the Farm: 7/8/2018

AAA  Reno Aces defeated the Sacramento River Cats 8-2:

Gregor Blanco CF- 2 for 4.  BA= .239.
Kelby Tomlinson SS- 3 for 4.  BA= .241.
Miguel Gomez 2B- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .321.
Jordan Johnson RHP- 3.2 IP, 5 H, 3 R, 3 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 7.27.
Tyler Rogers RHP- 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 1.59.
Josh Osich LHP- 1 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 0 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 4.71.

Miguel Gomez can hit.  I wonder if Tyler Rogers' submaweenie style would play in the majors?  Just when you think Josh Osich is getting it together.....

AA  Richmond Flying Squirrels edged out the Akron Rubber Ducks 2-1:

Aramis Garcia 1B- 1 for 3, HR(8).  BA= .215.
Chase Johnson RHP- 5 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 2.45.

Sam Wolff RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 2.25.

EL has the next 2 days off for their All-Star break which is probably why Chase Johnson and Shaun Anderson both pitched today.

Low A  Augusta Greenjackets blanked the Rome Braves 4-0(Game 2 of DH, 7 innings):

Heliot Ramos CF- 1 for 4, 2B.  BA= .242.
John Gavin LHP- 7 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 1.82.

GJ's scored all 4 runs in the 7'th inning.  Ramos' double drove in 2 runs and came in the next AB after Shane Matheny's 2-run single.  With Jason Bahr traded from the San Jose roster, maybe Gavin gets a promo to take his place?
