Game 29: Win it for Mom

Triple-A Scranton (5-4 loss to Lehigh Valley)

  • RF Aaron Judge: 1-4, 1 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 BB — threw a runner out at second for his fifth outfield assists in 23 games in the outfield … fourth homer in his last eight games
  • C Gary Sanchez: 1-5, 1 RBI, 1 K
  • CF Slade Heathcott: 0-4, 1 BB, 2 K — 8-for-38 (.211) since missing a few days after taking a pitch to the hand
  • DH Nick Swisher: 0-5, 2 K — in an 0-for-13 skid
  • 2B Rob Refsnyder: 1-4 — the hitting streak is up to a dozen games
  • RHP Luis Cessa: 5.2 IP, 6 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 3 BB, 3 K, 6/5 GB/FB — 58 of 97 pitches were strikes (60%) … had allowed six earned runs total in his first four outings at this level
  • RHP Matt Wotherspoon: 2.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 2/2 GB/FB — 20 of 32 pitches were strikes (63%) … home debut with the RailRiders for the Scranton area native
  • LHP James Pazos: 0.2 IP, zeroes, 2 K — ten pitches, seven strikes

Double-A Trenton (7-5 win over Harrisburg)

  • 2B Tyler Wade: 2-5, 2 R, 1 2B, 2 RBI, 1 K — had been in a 5-for-30 (.167) slump
  • CF-LF Jake Cave: 2-5, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 1 RBI — 18-for-51 (.353) with four doubles, two triples, and two homers in his last 13 games, and that’s with an 0-for-12 slump mixed in … Reds probably wish they held on to him as a Rule 5 Draft player
  • 1B Tyler Austin: 1-5, 2 RBI, 1 K — remember his slow start? he’s up .278/.377/.433 on the season … of course, he’s been playing at Trenton since 2012, so yeah
  • CF Dustin Fowler: 0-0 — replaced UTIL Jose Rosario in the outfield in the late innings … not sure why Rosario left the game
  • RHP Ronald Herrera: 5.2 IP, 10 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 7 K, 4/3 GB/FB — 73 of 101 pitches were strikes (72%) … not a terrible outing but still one of his worst of the season
  • RHP Gio Gallegos: 2.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, 2/2 GB/FB — 24 of 33 pitches were strikes (73%) … 27/5 K/BB in 17.2 innings
  • RHP Jonathan Holder: 1 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 0 K, 1/0 GB/FB — 15 of 25 pitches were strikes (60%) … rare rough outing this season

High-A Tampa had a scheduled off-day. On a Sunday? On Mother’s Day? Weird.

Low-A Charleston (7-2 loss to Hickory)

  • CF Jeff Hendrix: 1-4, 1 K
  • 2B Thairo Estrada & SS Kyle Holder: both 0-4
  • 3B Angel Aguilar: 1-4, 1 2B, 1 RBI
  • RF Leonardo Molina: 0-3
  • LHP Nestor Cortes: 6 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 6 K, 4/5 GB/FB — 52 of 69 pitches were strikes (75%) … season debut for the 21-year-old southpaw who had a 66/10 K/BB in 63.2 innings with Rookie Pulaski last year
  • RHP David Palladino: 1.2 IP, 4 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 3 BB, 3 K, 2/1 GB/FB — 26 of 46 pitches were strikes (57%)
