6/27 Minor League Report! FMART, THOLE, Niesen, WELCH!

New Orleans 10, Memphis 13

As I said, I'm going to stop doing writeups for the Zephyrs.

Binghamton 2, Connecticut 4

Figures that the start I miss on radio would be the one Jon Niese pitches a complete game, huh? And it is a perplexing CG, at that. He went the distance, allowing 7 hits and 4 runs, all 4 runs scored in the first 4 innings. Niese had 7 innings where he faced the minimum, and gave up 2 runs apiece in the 2nd and 4th innings. In fact, Niese gave up all 4 runs on 5 hits in those 2 innings, and allowed just 2 hits and 2 walks in the remaining 7 innings.

Fernando Martinez was stellar in his return to AA, he went 3 for 5. Unfortunately, not much else happened offensively for the BMets. Mike Carp had an RBI single in the 1st, and Josh Petersen had one in the 9th, that was it. Eric Reed (0 for 4, BB, .231), Nick Evans (0 for 4, BB, 2 Ks, .308), Caleb Stewart (0 for 4, .283) and Mike Nickeas (0 for 3, BB, .176) all took 0-fers.

Mike Carp (1b) 1 for 4, RBI, .330
Emmanuel Garcia (2b) 2 for 4, run, .226
Jose Coronado (ss) 1 for 3, BB, .256
Jon Niese 9 IP, 7 H, 4 ER, 2 BBs, 4 Ks, 3.14 era, L (5-5), 14:9:4

St. Lucie 3, Clearwater 1, Game 1

It was a very good bounceback outing for Eric Niesen, who'd gotten bombed for 5 hits, 3 walks and 5 runs in his last start, only allowed a run on 6 hits over 6 innings tonight. Emary Frederick worked a scoreless 9th for his 4th save of the season.

Once again, it was Josh Thole who had a big game, 2 hits (both 2b), a run, RBI and walk, pushing his average to .295 and his OBP to .391. Shawn Bowman also had 2 hits, he's batting .385 over his first handful of games back. Ruben Tejada (0 for 3, .256), Lucas Duda (0 for 3, .268), and Luis Rivera (0 for 3, K, .230) took 0-fers.

Ezequiel Carrera (cf) 1 for 3, .262

Jordan Abruzzo (dh) 1 for 3, K, .296
DJ Wabick (lf) 1 for 2, BB, .281
Shawn Bowman (3b) 2 for 3, run, 3b, RBI, K, .385
Eric Niesen 6 IP, 6 H, ER, BB, 2 Ks, 4.40 era, W (4-8), 11:5:2
Emary Frederick IP, H, BB, K, 3.72 era, SV (4)

St. Lucie 0, Clearwater 4

St. Lucie was 1 hit. Ouch. The lone hit was Ezequiel Carrera's 9th triple. Lucas Duda drew a walk, and that was the sum total of the Met offense in Game 2 (sound familiar?). Weirdly, Angel Calero only pitched 3 innings for a second straight outing, giving up a run on 3 hits. Elvyz Quezada did the same, and Edgar Ramirez gave up 2 in his inning of work.

Ezequiel Carrera (cf) 1 for 3, 3b, .263

Lucas Duda (1b) 0 for 2, BB, .266
Jordan Abruzzo (c) 0 for 3, .267
Brahiam Maldonado (lf) 0 for 2, K, .213

Savannah 3, Rome 2, Game 1

Scott Moviel had a good, not great, start, going just 5 innings, allowing 3 hits and 2 runs, picking up his 8th win of the season. On the positive side, his ERA is now under 5 for the season (4.94). Julio Polanco pitched 2 perfect innings for his 4th save.

Greg Veloz had a big game, with 2 XBH and 2 runs scored, Juan Lagares had an RBI, and Francisco Pena had 2 hits. Lagares (0 for 3, RBI, K, .300), Jose Jimenez (0 for 2, BB, .244), Nick Giarraputo (0 for 3, 2 Ks, .250), Richard Pena (0 for 3, K, .228), and Carlos Guzman (0 for 2, K, .235) all took 0-fers for the Gnats, who managed just 6 hits.

Jacob Elgsti (ss) 1 for 2, run, K, .250

Julio Polanco 2 IP, 2 Ks, 4.68 era, SV (4), 3:1:2

Savannah 0, Rome 2

Hey, at least Savannah did twice as well as St. Lucie! Yes, they were 2 hit in the nightcap. Greg Veloz and Sean McCraw had the hits, McCraw also drew a walk. A Bradley Hubbert walk rounded out the sum total of the Gnats offense in Game 2 (sound familiar?)

Weird managing going on in the minors tonight, Elvin Ramirez was pulled with a 4 hit shutout going (he was pulled after 4). Josh Stinson came in and allowed 2 runs on 2 hits and 4 walks in 3 innings, taking his 4th loss.

Greg Veloz (2b) 1 for 3, K, .258
Juan Lagares (ss) 0 for 3, K, .273
Nick Giarraputo (3b) 0 for 2, .227

Elvin Ramirez 4 IP, 4 H, 2 Ks, 3.58 era
Josh Stinson 3 IP, 2 H, 2 ER, 4 BBs, K, HR, 3.30 era, L (1-4)

Brooklyn 4, Aberdeen 3

Dan Murphy joined Ryan Church on the rehab trail today, and today it was Murphy with the 3 hit game, as the Cyclones beat Aberdeen in their final AB (Will Vogl walkoff 1b). 4 players had multi hit games, while 3 took 0-fers. Ryan Church (0 for 3, 2 Ks, .500), John Servidio (0 ofr 2, run, 2 BBs, .270) and Ralph Henriquez (0 for 4, .263).

At least one Pedro Martinez had a good game, Pedro P Martinez went 6 innings, allowing just 3 runs (2 earned) on 6 hits. Mike Lynn started the 7th and walked the first 2 to face him, but Jimmy Johnson came in and bailed him out, then finished off the game to pick up his 3rd win in relief.

Kingsport 6, Pulaski 4

Another big game for Stefan Welch with 2 more hits in 3 trips, including his 3rd triple of the short season (I groaned as I typed it, pun not intended). Wilmer had a solo homer in 4 trips, his 2nd on the year, and Gabriel Zavala (21 year old OFer from Venezuela) had his 2nd 3 hit game on the season, pushing his average to .300. Dan Stegall (0 for 2, BB, .366), Jean Luc Blaquiere (0 for 4, K, .250) and Rafael Fernandez (0 for 3, .250) took 0-fers.

John Holdkom got a second start and was just as good as his first, he went 5 innings again, scattering 4 hits and striking out 6, he walked just 2. Raul Batis went 3.2 innings allowing 4 hits and 4 UER, Manuel Alvarez came in to get the final out of the game for his first save.

Ignacio Medrano (ss) 1 for 4, K, .324
Wilmer Flores (dh) 1 for 4, run, HR (2), RBI (13! in 11 games!), K, .388

Raul Batis 3.2 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 3 Ks, 4.22 era
Manuel Alvarez 0.1 IP, 7.36 era, SV (1)

GCL Mets 3, GCL Nationals 5

I don't care what level of baseball this is, when a team commits 9 errors in one game...that's just absurd. All 5 runs against the Mets were unearned.

Luis Nieves (ss) 2 for 4, run, 2b, 2 RBI, .227
Jordany Valdespin (dh) 2 for 4, RBI, .304
Jefry Marte (3b) 0 for 4, .308
Cesar Peullo (rf) 1 for 4, K, .258
Juan Torres (1b) 1 for 4, run, 2b, K, .375
Alonzo Harris (2b) 1 for 4, run, .333
Jeurys Familia 5 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 4 Ks, 0.00 era
Jacobo Neguilis IP, H, R, K, 16.20 era
Kyle Allen 2 IP, H, 2 R, 2 Ks, 0.00 era, L (0-1)

E: Nieves 2 (2, fielding, fielding), Familia (1, throw), Harris 3 (3, fielding, throw, fielding), Neguilis (1, throw), Gronauer (catcher) (1, pickoff), Torres (1, fielding).
