Game 45: No More Dome
Yanks & Twins suspended due to rain

In what could easily be the final minor league start of his career, Stephen Strasburg will face the SWB Yanks this Saturday. Let’s all hope that Jesus Montero does something amazing that day.

Triple-A Scranton (3-1 loss to Louisville)
Greg Golson, LF-CF: 1 for 4, 1 R, 1 K
Curtis Granderson, CF: 0 for 3, 1 K – played seven innings in the field by design …. the plan is to have him take tomorrow off, play Thursday, then rejoin the big league team on Friday
Eduardo Nunez, SS: 2 for 4, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 K
Jesus Montero, C: 1 for 4 – threw out two of three baserunners
Jon Weber, DH & Reegie Corona, 2B: both 1 for 3
Chad Huffman, 1B-LF, Reid Gorecki, RF & Matt Cusick, 3B: all 0 for 3
Ivan Nova: 6 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 3 K, 7-5 GB/FB – 44 of his 81 pitches were strike (54.3%) … he left his last start after getting hit by a comebacker, so it’s good to see he wasn’t hurt too bad
Zack Segovia: 2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 2-2 GB/FB – 27 of 38 pitches were strikes (71.1%)

Double-A Trenton (4-0 win over Erie)
Justin Christian, LF, Dan Brewer, RF, Kevin Smith, 1B & Edwar Gonzalez, DH: all 1 for 4 – Brewer K’ed once … Smith scored a run & K’ed
Austin Krum, CF: 2 for 2, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 HBP
Brandon Laird, 3B: 0 for 4 – he’s still 14 for his last 37 (.378)
Jose Gil, C: 1 for 3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 BB
Luis Nunez, SS: 2 for 3, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 SB
Justin Snyder, 2B: 1 for 3, 1 K – hopefully some regular playing time with David Adams on the shelf will kick start his offense
Lance Pendleton: 7 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 4 K, 11-6 GB/FB – 16 H & 4 ER allowed in his last 23.1 IP
Josh Schmidt: 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 2-3 GB/FB

High-A Tampa (10-3 loss to Lakeland)
Jack Rye, RF, Jose Pirela, SS & Addison Maruszak, 1B: all 0 for 4 – Rye & Maruszak each K’ed once, Pirela twice
Bradley Suttle, 3B, Melky Mesa, CF & Trent Lockwood, DH: all 2 for 4 – Suttle stole a base, scored a run, K’ed & committed a fielding error … Mesa hit a solo jack, scored another run, K’ed & threw a runner at first … Lockwood drove in two & K’ed twice
Corban Joseph, 2B: 1 for 4, 3 K – 44 K in 45 games
Dan Kapala: 5 IP, 9 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 3 BB, 2 K, 1 HB, 9-2 GB/FB – hooray groundballs
Adam Olbrychowski: 2 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 3 WP, 0-4 GB/FB
Trenton Lare: 1 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 2-0 GB/FB

Low-A Charleston (1-0 loss to Greenville, walk-off style)
Jimmy Paredes, SS, J.R. Murphy, DH, Zoilo Almonte, RF, Kelvin Castro, 2B & Justin Milo, LF: combined 0 for 15, 6 K – Castro got hit by a pitch & stole a base … that’s a 1-2-3 & 8-9 hitters, so it was  five consecutive batters of nothing after the 1st inning
Luke Murton, 1B & Rob Lyerly, 3B: both 1 for 4 – Lyerly doubled, got caught stealing & committed a walk-off throwing error
Kyle Higashioka, C: 1 for 3, 1 2B, 1 BB, 1 K
Ray Kruml: 1 for 3, 2 K, 1 SB
Schaeffer Hall: 8 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, 15-6 GB/FB – shame he couldn’t get a win out of a performance like that
Ben Watkins: 0.2 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 0 K, 1 WP, 1-1 GB/FB – the walk was intentional
