Only Mississippi was able to gain a win down in the minors on Thursday (thanks to another great outing by Jake Brigham), but a few top prospects still had nice days at the plate.

(29-30) Gwinnett Braves 2, (39-23) Indianapolis Indians 4

  • Adonis Garcia 3B: 2-4, R, 2 SO, .303/.332/.394
  • Joey Terdoslavich LF: 1-4, 2B, SO, .250/.250/.500
  • Will Nieves C: 1-4, 2B, RBI, .254/.343/.305
  • Eric Young Jr. PH: 0-0, R, BB, SB, First plate appearance
  • Manny Banuelos SP: Loss (5-1), 6 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 3 BB, 5 SO, 2.19 ERA
  • Peter Moylan RP: IP, 3 H, 2 ER, SO, 4.91 ERA

There wasn't much going for the Gwinnett Braves in this one. They trailed from the 1st inning on, and a potential comeback was spoiled when Peter Moylan had a rough inning in the 7th. Joey Terdoslavich and Eric Young Jr. made their first appearances for Gwinnett and were both reached base once. Young stole a base and scored after walking, and Terdoslavich doubled for his only hit in 4 tries. Manny Banuelos received his first loss of the year despite a fairly good outing. Jose Peraza didn't play in the game.

(32-27) Mississippi Braves 5, (36-24) Biloxi Shuckers 1

  • Mallex Smith CF: 2-4, 3B, R, 2 RBI, .350/.427/.426
  • Rio Ruiz 3B: 2-3, 2 2B, 2 R, BB, .210/.332/.265
  • Eric Garcia 2B: 1-3, R, RBI, BB, SO, .287/.327/.404
  • Emerson Landoni SS: 1-3, RBI, BB, .260/.311/.305
  • Jake Brigham SP: Win (6-2), 8 IP, 2 H, ER, 2 BB, 5 SO, 3.10 ERA

After falling behind 1-0 in the 1st inning, the Mississippi Braves scored 5 unanswered runs - 1 in the 2nd and 4 in the 4th - to defeat the Shuckers 5-1. Jake Brigham pitched another gem after nearly throwing a perfect game his last time out. The red-hot pitcher allowed just 2 hits and 1 run over eight innings of work to improve to 6-2 on the season. Mallex Smith continue his fantastic work from the leadoff spot with 2 hits - including a triple - and 2 RBI's. Rio Ruiz reached base 3 more times as his average continues to climb towards a more respectable number.

(29-30) Carolina Mudcats 3, (27-33) Potomac Nationals 6

  • Carlos Franco 3B: 2-4, R, 2B, 3B, RBI, SO, .241/.311/.393
  • Connor Lien RF: 2-2, RBI, 2 BB, .316/.358/.458
  • Keith Curcio CF: 1-2, R, 3 BB, SO, .235/.312/.286
  • Johan Camargo SS: 2-4, R, 3B, .285/.339/.382
  • Seth Webster SP: Loss (2-2), 6 IP, 9 H, 5 ER, BB, 4 SO, 3.00 ERA

The Carolina Mudcats had plenty of opportunities on Thursday night but never capitalized to overcome a rough 6th inning by starter Seth Webster. Webster gave up 4 of his 5 earned runs in the 6th. Carlos Franco had a triple and an RBI double in the game. Connor Lien and Keith Curcio combined for 5 walks at the plate.

(27-33) Rome Braves 2, (27-33) Asheville Tourists 4

  • Ozhaino Albies SS: 1-4, R, SO, .321/.379/.409
  • Jordan Eagerton 3B: 2-4, RBI, 2 SO, CS, .292/.345/.396
  • Omar Obregon 2B: 1-3, RBI, .272/.350/.339
  • Braxton Davidson DH: 1-4, SO, .261/.396/.370
  • Max Povse SP: Loss (3-2), 3.2 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 1 ER, 4 BB, 3 SO, 2.17 ERA

The Rome Braves struck 1st in this one with a Jordan Eagerton single bringing home Ozhaino Albies, but they failed to score another run until the 8th inning and fell 4-2 to the Tourists. Albies extended his hitting streak to 16 games. Braxton Davidson also extended his hitting streak with a single to get it to 7 games. Max Povse had an interesting and ugly line in just 3.2 innings. He gave up 4 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks, but only 1 run was earned due to an error by Tanner Krietemeier in the 3rd inning.
