Quiet start to the work week....
Fresno 4, Las Vegas 0
W- Kent Emanuel (5-2)
L- P.J. Conlon (3-8)
Fresno home runs: None.
The Grizzlies started off a new series on the right foot by posting a shutout. Rodney Linares, unfortunately, had his night end early when he got tossed in the 5th for arguing over whether Christian Colon got hit by a pitch.
Kent Emanuel has gotten himself back in the saddle since rejoining the rotation. He allowed three hits, walked two, and struck out eight over six shutout innings. Dean Deetz was the first man out of the Fresno bullpen and allowed a hit, walked one, and struck out four in two scoreless. Riley Ferrell completed the shutout by striking Colon out to end the game. He also issued a walk.
Taylor Jones opened the scoring with an RBI infield single in the 4th. One batter later, Alex De Goti hit an RBI... infield double. Patrick Kivlehan, who was at third for Vegas, fielded the ball, so I'm assuming that it did not make it to the outfield. Myles Straw led off the 5th with a double and Yordan Alvarez brought him in with a double. Jamie Ritchie singled and Jones walked to start the 6th and they both advanced on a wild pitch. De Goti walked to load the bases for Alfredo Angarita, who hit a sac fly. Ritchie finished 2-4 with a double and scored twice; he was the only man on either side to finish with a multi-hit game.
Fresno and Las Vegas will continue this series at 7:05 Pacific. Since it's Tuesday, the Grizzlies will be doing business as the Fresno Tacos.
Corpus Christi was off
Forrest Whitley will make his first appearance since coming off the disabled list in the first game of a three-game set in Tulsa at 7:05. He will be opposed by Justin DeFratus.
Buies Creek was off
The Carolina Stros will start a three-game series with Winston-Salem at 6:00. Peter Solomon is listed as the starter for this game, but I don't know if that's correct since he pitched on Sunday in a game that ended up getting canceled.
Quad Cities 3, Cedar Rapids 0
W- Chad Donato (3-0, 6-0 season)
L- Edwar Colina (6-4)
S- Tanner Duncan (5, 6 season)
QC home runs: César Salazar (1, solo in 6th)
The Banditos kept the Kernels off the board for the second straight night.
After both teams combined to put up ten zeroes on the scoreboard, César Salazar launched the first home run of his pro career in the 6th inning to open up the scoring. Quad Cities got a couple of crucial insurance runs in the final inning as Salazar singled to lead off the inning and advanced to second on a wild pitch. Marty Costes brought him in with a base hit and Jonathan Lacroix capped off the evening with a triple that scored Costes. Salazar finished 2-4 on the evening.
This time, Chad Donato and Tanner Duncan put up nine zeroes on the board. Donato allowed two hits, walked one, and struck out five over seven shutout frames and on the day after his birthday, Duncan completed the shutout by allowing two hits, walking one, and striking out four in the final two innings.
The Banditos and Kernels will wrap up this series at 6:35.
Tri-City was off
The New York-Penn League All-Star game will take place on Tuesday in State College, Pennsylvania. Tri-City will be represented by Jeremy Peña, Alex McKenna, and Austin Hansen.
