Down on the Farm: 4/5/2019

AAA  Tacoma Rainiers came back from a 5-0 deficit to edge out the Sacramento River Cats 6-5:

Steven Vogt C-  1 for 4, HR(1), BB.  BA= .111.
Michael Reed RF- 1 for 3, 2B, BB.  BA= .333.
Zach Green 1B- 2 for 3, 2B, BB. BA= .429.
Tyler Beede RHP- 4 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 K's.  ERA= 0.00.
Carlos Navas RHP- 3.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 5 K's.  ERA= 2.70.

Beede's back!  Dominant 4 innings in his first start of 2019.  Michael Reed cleared waivers, elected free agency then signed a minor league FA contract with the Giants.  Got that?  Good!  Anyway, Reed played and Mac Williamson didn't.
