Down on the Farm: 5/7/2026

 Sorry for the late post.  My WiFi box went out and had to be replaced.  Back online.  

AAA:  Sacramento River Cats defeated the Reno Aces 6-3.

Harrison Bader CF- 1 for 4, HR(1).  BA= .200.

Daniel Susac DH- 3 for 4, 2 HR(2).  BA= .750.

Buddy Kennedy 3B- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(3).  BA= .327.

John Bertrand LHP- 6.1 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 1 BB, 0 K, 6/11 GO/AO.  ERA= 4.64.

Dylan Smith RHP- 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K's, 2/0 GO/AO.  ERA= 2.13.

Michael Fulmer RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K, Save(4).  ERA= 2.51.

Daniel Susac says, "put me in, coach.  I'm ready to play, today!"   Weird line for John Bertrand.  Zero K's and a flyball tendency is generally not a formula for pitching success.  

AA:  Richmond Flying Squirrels held off the Akron Rubber Ducks 5-4.

Parks Harber DH- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .327.

Bo Davidson CF- 1 for 3, BB.  BA= .279.

Adrian Sugastey C- 2 for 4.  BA= .263.

Aeverson Arteaga SS- 2 for 3.  BA= .328.

Darien Smith RHP- 4.2 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 1.52.

Dale Stanovich LHP- 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

Giants Signed Stanovich to a minor league deal on April 1 after he was released by the Marlins.

A+:  Vancouver Canadians edged out the Eugene Emeralds 3-2.

Niko Mazza RHP- 3.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 7 K's.  ERA= 2.86.

Ryan Vanderhei RHP- 1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 2.30.

A:  Fresno Grizzlies outscored the San Jose Giants 12-8.

Jhonny Level SS= 2 for 3, HR(5), 2 BB.  BA= .345.

Damian Bravo LF- 2 for 5.  BA= .292.

Junior Barajas C- 2 for 5.  BA= .308.

Dario Reynoso 3B= 1 for 2, HR(4), 2 BB.  BA= .300.

Jose Astudillo RF- 2 for 3, HBP.  BA= .389.

Argenis Cayama RHP- 0.2 IP, 6 H, 7 R, 3 BB, 0 K.  ERA= 5.63.  

Ben Bybee RHP- 3.1 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 1.42. 

A hiccup for Argenis Cayama.  Dario Reynoso has homered 3 games in a row and 4 out of his last 6 games.

ACL:  Giants outlasted the Reds 7-6(11 innings).

Luis Hernandez SS- 3 for 5, HR(3), BB.  BA= .313.

Yohendry Sanchez C- 2 for 5, BB.  BA= .556.

Evan Estevez 1B- 2 for 2.  BA= .273.

Johan Rodriguez RHP- 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

Chen-Hsun Lee RHP- 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 6 K's.  ERA= 3.60.

Gotta be super-excited over Luis Hernandez' start to his pro career.  Note most international prospects spend their first pro season in the DSL.
