Game 126: Co-Ace
Yanks give Kuroda no support, fall to Indians

RHP Angel Rincon will join 1B Greg Bird with Short Season Staten Island while RHP Rich Mascheri and RHP Edison Mejia have been bumped up to High-A Tampa. We’re going to see a flurry of late-season promotions now with the minor league seasons starting to end, September call-ups, affiliates dropping out of playoff races, etc.

Triple-A Empire State (9-5 loss to Lehigh Valley)
RF Chris Dickerson: 1-4, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 BB, 1 K
2B Corban Joseph: 1-3, 2 R, 2 BB, 1 K
DH Eduardo Nunez: 3-5, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 K — 15 hits in his last 39 at-bats (.385)
LF Ronnie Mustelier: 1-5, 1 RBI, 1 K
C Austin Romine: 1-2, 2 RBI, 2 BB, 1 PB — 13/11 K/BB in 24 games
1B Brandon Laird: 2-5, 1 2B, 1 RBI
CF Melky Mesa & 3B Kevin Russo: both 0-4 — Russo struck out twice, Mesa thrice
SS Ramiro Pena: 1-4, 1 K
RHP Ramon Ortiz: 4.1 IP, 8 H, 4 R, 7 R, 7 ER, 4 BB, 5 K, 5/2 GB/FB — 54 of 91 pitches were strikes (59%) … that’s 40 runs allowed in his last 60.1 IP, the wheels might be coming off the 39-year-old just before the Triple-A postseason unfortunately
RHP Kelvin Perez: 1.2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, 1/1 GB/FB — 23 of 44 pitches were strikes (52%)
RHP Chase Whitley: 2 IP, zeroes, 1 K, 2/2 GB/FB — 13 of 18 pitches were strikes (72%)

Double-A Trenton (4-3 loss to Akron)
CF Adonis Garcia: 2-5, 1 2B
C J.R. Murphy: 1-3, 1 R, 1 BB
DH David Adams: 2-4, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 2 RBI — that was the team’s 151st homer of the season, a new single-season franchise record
