Astros Minor League Recaps

Results for Sunday, May 12, 2019

A rainout in Frederick meant that only the upper-level affiliates were in action on Mother's Day.

Round Rock 4, Oklahoma City 2

W- Akeem Bostick (3-1)
L- Dennis Santana (0-2)
S- Brendan McCurry (4)

RR home runs: Yordan Alvarez (15, 3-run in 1st)

Yordan Alvarez's rampage continues.

Alvarez went 2-4 and whacked a three-run home run in the 1st to open the scoring. Round Rock's other scoring play came in the 6th when Jack Mayfield scored on a wild pitch. Mayfield also finished 2-4 on the afternoon.

Akeem Bostick had an inherited runner charged to him when Dean Deetz hit a man with the bases loaded in the 6th. He also allowed two hits, walked four, and struck out four in 5.1 innings of work. Dean Deetz and Reymin Guduan both pitched 1.2 innings; Deetz allowed a solo homer, walked one, and struck out three, while Guduan allowed three hits, walked one, and struck out one in a scoreless outing. Brendan McCurry walked the first man he faced, which loaded the bases, but he was able to secure the victory by getting a groundout to end the game.

The Express and Dodgers will continue their series at 7:05.

Amarillo 4, Corpus Christi 2

W- Emmanuel Ramirez (2-4)
L- Carson LaRue (0-1)
S- Andrés Muñoz (2)

CC home runs: None.

The Hooks, doing business as the Raspas on Sunday, were foiled in their attempt to sweep the series as their bats went quiet.

Osvaldo Duarte singled to lead off the 1st and scored Corpus Christi's first run of the day on a balk. He also hit a sac fly in the 7th. Aníbal Sierra went 2-3 and stole his first base of the season. Duarte also stole a base, giving him nine on the year.

Carson LaRue pitched four innings and allowed three runs (two earned) on four hits (solo homer), walked two, and struck out five. Gabriel Valdez turned in his best outing of the season as he allowed an unearned run on four hits and fanned four in 4.2 innings. Justin Ferrell allowed a single to the first man he faced before getting the final out of the 9th.

The Lone Star Series in the Texas League fires up again as the Hooks welcome the Frisco RoughRiders to South Texas for a three-game set. Brandon Bailey will start game one and he'll face Jonathan Hernandez at 6:15.

Fayetteville and Frederick was canceled

Due to rain. This game will not be made up as it was the final meeting between the Woodpeckers and the Keys in the first half.

Chad Donato, who was originally scheduled to start this game, will start the first game of a new series. The Woodpeckers are heading home to start a three-game series with the Salem Red Sox at 7:00 Eastern.

Quad Cities returns to action on Monday

With a doubleheader in Cedar Rapids. Game one will begin at 5:30; R.J. Freure will take on Josh Winder. Quad Cities has not announced a starter for game two.

This twinbill will kick off a 12-game roadtrip for the Banditos. I'm sure they're ready to get going again after unexpectedly getting this weekend off.
