DotF: Wade and Culver go deep in Scranton’s blowout win

Triple-A Scranton (13-2 win over Charlotte)

• 3B Tyler Wade: 2-5, 2 R, 1 3B, 1 HR, 4 RBI, 1 K — here’s video of the homer
• DH Jake Cave: 1-4, 1 R, 1 BB
• LF Billy McKinney: 0-4, 2 R, 1 RBI, 1 BB
• CF Mason Williams: 1-4, 1 RBI, 1 K
• SS Cito Culver: 2-5, 2 R, 1 HR, 3 RBI — now hitting .248/.314/.461 with a career high tying nine home runs
• LHP Dietrich Enns: 7 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 7 K, 1 HBP, 10/2 GB/FB — 72 of 92 pitches were strikes (78%) … I wonder how high he is on the rotation depth chart?
• RHP Jonathan Holder: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 0/2 GB/FB — eleven of 16 pitches were strikes (69%)

Double-A Trenton (3-1 win over New Hampshire in five innings) completed early due to rain

• 2B Jorge Mateo: 1-2, 1 2B — he’s now reached base in all 21 games with the Thunder
• CF Rashad Crawford: 0-2
• SS Abi Avelino: 0-2, 1 R, 1 K
• RHP Domingo Acevedo: 5 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, 5/4 GB/FB — 43 of 64 pitches were strikes (67%) … 114/26 K/BB in 108 innings this season … his career high is 93 innings set last year, so I wonder how much longer the Yankees plan to let him go

High-A Tampa (5-2 win over Charlotte)

• SS Kyle Holder: 3-5, 1 R, 1 CS — quietly has gone 22-for-64 (.344) in his last 18 games
• 3B Angel Aguilar: 1-5, 1 RBI, 2 K
• CF Trey Amburgey: 0-4, 1 K
• LF Alex Palma: 2-4, 1 R, 1 RBI — threw a runner out at third … that’s 45 outfield assists in 245 career games, which is insane … the MLB leader in outfield assists usually has around 20 in a given season … Palma is averaging 30 per 162 games in his career
• RHP Dillon Tate: 7 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 3 K, 13/3 GB/FB — 59 of 101 pitches were strikes (58%) … 2.92 ERA with 31/11 K/BB in 37 inning since coming back from his shoulder injury

Low-A Charleston Game One (6-1 win over Hagerstown in seven innings)

• 2B Diego Castillo: 0-2, 1 RBI, 1 BB, 1 CS
• CF Estevan Florial: 1-3, 1 R, 1 2B, 2 K — now that OF Blake Rutherford has been traded, center field is all Florial’s
• C Donny Sands: 2-3, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 K — 18-for-47 (.383) in his last 12 games
• RF Isiah Gilliam: 1-3, 1 R
• RHP Nick Green: 5.2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 7 K, 1 WP, 8/3 GB/FB — 51 of 83 pitches were strikes (61%) … he’s allowed no more than one earned run in nine of his last 14 starts

Low-A Charleston Game Two (4-2 win over Hagerstown in seven innings) makeup of yesterday’s rainout

• 2B Hoy Jun Park & SS Diego Castillo: both 0-3 — Castillo struck out
• CF Estevan Florial: 2-3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 K — he’d been scuffling a little bit the last two weeks or so, so it’s good to see him have a nice doubleheader
• RF Isiah Gilliam: 2-3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 3 RBI
• RHP Freicer Perez: 5 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 7 K, 3/1 GB/FB, 1 E (pickoff) — 54 of 88 pitches were strikes (61%) … 34/7 K/BB in his last five starts and 29.1 innings

• RHP Drew Finley: 4.1 IP, 9 H, 7 R, 5 ER, 3 BB, 4 K, 2 WP, 4/3 GB/FB — 53 of 93 pitches were strikes (57%) … really like this kid’s arm, though it would be nice to see him pitch well consistently at some point

Rookie Pulaski (13-7 loss to Princeton)

• CF Pablo Olivares: 2-4, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 BB — 15-for-33 (.455) with eight walks and four strikeouts in his last ten games
