Sunday Minor League Recaps
Scranton/WB 3 @ Norfolk 1
Ryan Howard (.379/.468/.710) continues to annihilate Triple-A pitching. Howard went 2-3 against Norfolk pitching including a walk to extend his hitting streak to 21 games.
Mark Budzinski (.280/.358/.390) also had two hits, both doubles (17), and added two RBI's (19). The Red Barons scored all three of their runs in the second inning and two came off of Budzinsi's first double.
Pedro Liriano (2-7, 4.45) went 6 2/3 innings, giving up a run on three hits and striking out two. Red Barons pitching yielded only four hits to Norfolk hitters.
Yoel Hernandez (1-1, 0.71) came in to relieve Pedro Liriano and pitched a 1 hit inning including one strikeout. Hernandez has dominated Triple-A batting in 12 2/3 innings this season.
Reading 2 vs. Harrisburg 1 (11 innings)
Jim Deschaine (.266/.360/.417) won the game for the Reading Phillies in the 11th innings by launching his 5th homerun of the season over the left field wall.
Seung Hak Lee (3-1, 1.97) pitching 6 innings in his 11th start of the season. Lee scattered 7 hits giving up only 1 run while striking out 6 and giving 2 free passes. The Reading bullpen was nearly perfect. They allowed two baserunners in five innings. Ryan Cameron (2-3, 2.80) pitched 1 2/3 perfect innings while striking out 2 and lowering his ERA to 2.80. Cameron was followed by Travis Minix (0-1, 2.40) who surrendered 1 hit in 1 inning of wor. Minix and Cameron have been the anchors of the Reading bullpen so far this season. They have both pitched over 40 innings for Reading and have continued to be consistent.
Clearwater 0 @ Fort Myers 3
The Clearwater Threshers are 15-50 this year and are 30 games out of first place. It showed last night when they scattered 6 hits and could not come up with a single run while starting pitcher Zach Segovia (1-9, 6.72) pitched 5 innings and gave up all 3 runs.
Jae Blalock (.272/.366/.387) went 1-4 as did Brad Correll (.266/.311/.385), Bryan Hansen (.219/.308/.375), and Carlos Rodriguez (.235/.316/.353).
Center fielder Brian Sellier (.228/.279/.437) added two hits for the Threshers. Amazingly, out of the 6 hits the Threshers accumulated none of them went for extra bases.
Lakewood 12 @ Delmarva 2
The Lakewood Blueclaws raced up 12 runs on 19 hits.
Designated hitter Doug Gredgvig (.308/.404/.521) hit his 8th homerun of the year while going 2-4 with 2 walks, 2 RBI's and 2 runs scored.
First basemen Michael Dzurilla (.348/.406/.511) should be due for a promotion by the end of the year. He is hitting Low-A ball pitching and should get a chance in Clearwater. Dzurilla went 3-6 last night and that included 2 doubles as well as 2 runs scored and 2 RBI's.
Maximino De La Cruz (3-7, 4.41) earned his 3rd win of the season by pitching 7 quality innings. He gave up two runs on three hits while striking out and walking 3 batters.
