Sacramento Notes:

  • Willie Calhoun knocked in all of the River Cats run with his first home run with Sacramento, a 9th inning, 3-run shot, while going 1-for-4.  It was Calhoun’s sixth home run overall this season, with five home runs in 21 games at Round Rock, and now one in four games at Sacramento.
  • Isan Díaz led the team in hits, going 3-for-3 with his sixth double, plus a walk to make a perfect on-base day.  It’s Díaz’s second straight 3-hit game with a double, and he’s now batting .299 (20-for-67) for the month of June, with five doubles and eight home runs.
  • Heliot Ramos went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles.  It’s Ramos’ second multi-hit game in a row.  He’s raised his Triple-A batting average from .208 to .221 over the two games.
  • Raynel Espinal took a hard luck loss, allowing just one run on three hits and a walk in 5.0 innings, while striking out four.  It’s Espinel’s first game allowing just one run in his last three starts, and a good bounceback from giving up six runs in his last start.
  • Patrick Ruotolo had a solid inning, striking out two in a scoreless inning, just allowing one hit.  Ruotolo’s had a tough run of it since moving up to Sacramento, with a 6.85 ERA in 18 games at the level.
  • Joey Bart went 0-for-4 with a strikeout, but his defense is on par.

Richmond Notes:

  • On a weak day for the Squirrels, Sean Roby led the team in hits by going 2-for-4.  It’s Roby’s third multi-hit game in the last six games, but he went hitless in the other three.  Despite hitting seven home runs in June, he’s gone just 13-for-74 (.176) in the month.
  • Ricardo Genovés picked up the only other hit for the Squirrels.  In nine games in Double-A, Genovés has gone 10-for-30 with a triple and a home run, plus two walks to nine strikeouts.
  • Starter Matt Frisbee gave up a season-high ten runs on seven hits with three walks and three HBPs over 4.1 innings.  Frisbee’s previous high in a game was just six runs, and his ERA jumped from 4.04 to 5.13 in this one game.

Eugene Notes:

  • Carter Aldrete needed just two innings to pick up seven RBI, with a 3-run home run in the first inning and a grand slam in the second inning.  It’s Aldrete’s second 2-home run game of the season, giving him 13 on the year, and moving him into the league lead, one ahead of teammate Casey Schmidt.
  • Luis Toribio went 1-for-3 with a double, giving him six on the year.  Toribio has gone 17-for-73 (.233) in the month of June, with three doubles and eight home runs.
  • Hunter Bishop went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles, and has three multi-hit games in his last four.  Over that span, he’s gone 7-for-15 (.467) with a triple and two home runs, and raised his batting average from .220 to .236.
  • Vaun Brown went 2-for-4 with a walk, and lowered his batting average from .545 to .533, because it turns out that his pace was impossible to keep up.  Through four games in Eugene, he’s gone 8-for-15 with a double and a home run, with three walks to one strikeout.
  • Jake Wong had a solid game, allowing two runs, one earned, on two hits and two walks, with a season-high tying seven strikeouts, matching his last start.  On the season, Wong has 55 strikeouts to 22 walks in 50.2 innings.
