Down on the Farm: 5/3/2025

AAA:  Reno Aces downed the Sacramento River Cats 5-1:

Osleivis Basabe 3B- 2 for 3.  BA= .237.
Carson Seymour RHP- 4 IP, 4 H, 5 R, 4 BB, 7 K's.  ERA= 3.09.
Joey Lucchesi LHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 3.38.
Helcris Olivares LHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 3.68.

AA:  Richmond Flying Squirrels defeated the Somerset Patriots 4-1:

Carter Howell RF- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .229.
Bryce Eldridge 1B- 1 for 3, BB.  BA= .303.
Devin Mann 2B- 1 for 3, HR(2), BB.  BA= .294.
Justin Wishkoski 3B- 1 for 3, HR(1).  BA= .250.
Joe Whitman LHP- 6 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 10 K's.  ERA= 5.31.  
Evan Gates RHP- 3 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 4.02.

Woo hoo!  6 perfect innings from Joe Whitman.  And it doesn't look like a fluke as he had 10 K's in the process.  Whitman was off to a slow start this season so we'll see if this game is the start of a breakout.

A+:  Everett Aquasox crushed the Eugene Emeralds 10-2:

Bo Davidson CF- 1 for 4, HR(4).  BA= .338.
James Tibbs III- 0 for 2, 2 BB.  BA= .226.

A:  Modesto Nuts buried the San Jose Giants 12-4:

Really, nothing to see here.

Rookie ACL:  A's outscored the Giants 5-4:

Jhonny Level SS(18 yo):  3 for 5, 2 2B, 3B.  BA= .600.
Rayner Arias LF(19 yo)- 1 for 4, BB, SB(1).  BA= .250.
Ramon Peralta 3B- 4 for 5.  BA= .800.
Dario Reynoso 2B(20 yo):  3 for 5, 2B.  BA= .600.
Argenis Cayama RHP(18 yo)- 4 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 4 K's 7/0 GO/AO.  ERA= 0.00.
Liam Simon RHP(24 yo):  1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

Sensational first stateside game for Jhonny Level.  Strong start for Cayama who is probably the best pitching prospect from last years's international class. This is a critical year for Rayner Arias.  Job #1 is to stay healthy and get a full season's worth of PA's.

  1. The Richmond Flying Squirrels had a crowd of 9,252 fans to close the month of April with the team posting its highest average for the month in franchise history.
    Bryce Eldridge effect? Probably not: he's only played in 9 games.
    Squirrels at 8-18 aren't doing very well but have some intresting players including an emerging Jairo Pomares?

    Giants Designate Lou Trivino, Call Up Kyle Harrison
    Do you think he's coming up to be in the bullpen?
    DOUBTFUL!
