Minor League Recaps: 7/15

It sucks that I didn't get to post yesterday because what few games we had going on had some big performances from some guys. Tyler Flowers had a 3-4 2 2B, 3 RBI game, Freddie Freeman went 3-3 3 2B, 2 RBI, and Cole Rohrbough continues to rebound from injury with 5 innings of shut out ball.

Richmond - Off for All Star Break

Mississippi - Same

Myrtle Beach 8, Frederick 6

• E. Campbell 3-5 K
• C. Rodriguez 2-4 2 2B
• J. Owings 1-4 HR(15), 2 RBI

Jon Owings continues to impress with his second homer in two days. He has 38 XBH in his 276 ABs and is slugging .543 for the season. He could cut down on the Ks but otherwise these are good numbers for someone playing half their games in a swirling vortex. Eric Campbell's AVG has slowly risen each month and he is hitting .275 this month. Not great, but he is getting in a grove it looks like.

Rome - Off

Danville 6, Bristol 5

• S. Moody 3-4
• C. Shehan 2-4 RBI, BB
• J. Gilmore 1-4 2B, RBI, BB
• C. Kimbrel 2IP 1H 0R 0BB 4K

Craig Kimbrel can't last much longer in the Appy league as he has just butchered hitters out of the pen. His 0.00 ERA is testament to that. Gilmore had another double giving him 8 in 57 July ABs. Another thing to to note about Gilmore is that he only has 4 Ks in those ABs. I guess that isn't a huge deal since he was striking out at a high rate in Rome.

Blue Jays 4, Braves 5

• J. Hanson 1-4 HR(2), 2 RBI
• B. Devall 2IP 1H 0R 1BB 0K

Our 1st round draft pick Brett Devall made his first professional appearance in this game just a few days after he and Tyler Stovall signed. Right now we have our first five picks signed and the next 4 after that. Nothing else special going on here.
