Corpus Christi - Off Day

MONDAY'S RESULTS


DSL Mariners over DSL Astros 13-5
The Astros used five pitchers (which is fairly standard as these young players get acclimated) with widely mixed results. Juan Delis (one run over three innings) and Frangy Colon (no hits, three strikeouts over one inning) had good outings; Juan Hernandez (four runs over two innings) and Yonquelys Martinez (two runs over two innings) had not-so-good outings; and Rayderson Chevalier had a spectacularly bad outing, giving up six runs on five hits and a walk without recording an out. Frederick Serrano hit a two run double. Yoel Silfa and Luis Reynosa had multi-hit games.

Springfield over Corpus Christi 12-8
Starter Ross Seaton got jumped on in the first inning with five singles and a walk to surrender four runs early, then settled down for the next few innings until he was pulled in the fifth after giving up a home run and three singles for two additional runs. Kevin Chapman got the final out in the fifth to keep Corpus in the game. And they were still in the game until the bullpen imploded, allowing six more runs over the final three innings as Henry Villar (BS, 1) gave up two, Erick Abreu (L, 5-2) gave up three and John Zeid gave up the final run. The main reason they were still in the game until late was because of Jonathan Villar's grand slam in the fourth inning, one of three hits Villar had for the night. Jose Martinez had RBIs on a sac fly and a bases loaded hit by pitch.

Rancho Cucamonga over Lancaster 11-4
This was an uncharacteristically bad start for Ruben Alaniz (L, 5-2) as he gave up seven runs in the first inning alone and Lancaster never came close to coming back from that early deficit. Alaniz only made it through 4.2 innings and gave way to Pat Urckfitz after surrendering his second home run of the night. Urckfitz got touched for two runs over 2.1 innings. Brian Streilein and Brad Dydalewicz were perfect in the last two frames. George Springer hit his 11th home run of the season. Ben Orloff and Kike Hernandez had multi-hit games.

GAME OF THE DAY
Oklahoma City over Iowa 6-5

Brian Bass did not fare as well in his second start, giving up five runs (four earned) on nine hits and four walks over 5.1 innings, but he kept the team in the game. Adalberto Flores, Mickey Storey (W, 3-2) and Juan Abreu (S, 3) took it the rest of the way pitching scoreless relief. Mike Hessman hit two more home runs (making it five in the last 2 games), including one in the seventh that ultimately proved to be the winning run. Jimmy Paredes hit his fifth long ball of the season, and Angel Sanchez was three-for-four with two RBIs.

PITCHER OF THE DAY
It wasn't exactly an auspicious day for pitching. I'm going to go with the 18-year old Juan Delis who pitched three innings, giving up one run on one hit and two walks with three strikeouts in his season debut at the DSL.

PLAYER OF THE DAY
Mike Hessman may deserve it for hitting five bombs in two days, but I'm going to go with Jonathan Villar for going three-for-five with a grand slam.
