7/13 Recap

AAA - Richmond 1, Syracuse 8
Gregor Blanco was on base 3 times with 2 walks and a hit but the rest of the Braves failed to get to the Blue Jay's top pitching prospect, Dustin McGowan. Brayan Pena and Michael Ryan did manage to go 1-3. Dan Curtis (L, 1-3) was coming off a couple of decent starts but was hit hard by Syracuse. He gave up 6 runs on 8 hits in 6 innings. Will Startup pitched an inning but gave up a hit, a walk, and a run. His ERA is 5.28 so he is going to need some time in AAA before being ready to contribute in Atlanta.

Recap

Low A - Rome 3, Charleston 1

Beau Jones pitched a typical game where he gave up a lot of baserunners (6 hits and 2 walks) but not many runs (1 unearned). He lasted only 4.1 innings thanks to his inefficiency. Jose Santiago (W, 1-0) pitched the final 4.2 innings and allowed only 2 hits while striking out 8. Quentin Davis had a big day at the plate with 3 his, one run, and 4 stolen bases to give him 30 for the season. His 4 steals included stealing 3rd base three times. Max Ramirez hit a 2-run homer in the 6th inning which proved to be the difference.

Evart's ERA now stands at 1.29 while Osuna lowered his ERA to 1.12. Jon Mark Owings continued his good work with 2 doubles and an RBI. Adam Coe also drove in another run with his 1-4 day. Cole Miles went 1-2, walked 3 times, and stole a base out of the leadoff spot. Wes Timmons made a rehab appearance and went 0-3 with a walk and a run.
