AAA: Round Rock 10, Sacramento 7

Sacramento Notes:

  • Andrew Knapp’s run continues in Sacramento, as he led the team with three hits by going 3-for-5, with a double and a home run, his third game with a home run in a row.  Through six games at Sacramento, he’s batting .417/.440/.875 with two doubles and three home runs, with one walk to six strikeouts
  • 20 was the number for Isan Díaz, who went 2-for-4 with a walk and hit his 20th home run of the season.  That ties his second-highest total for a season, which he hit in Low-A in 2016.  His only season with more in 2019, when he hit 26 at Triple-A New Orleans.
    • Díaz could be on his way to the majors, after Thairo Estrada was hit in the head with a pitch in the Giants big league game.  The Giants are extremely short of healthy shortstops on the 40-man roster, and Díaz would need to be added to it.
  • Ka’ai Tom was 1-for-5 with his 10th home run of the year.  It was Tom’s first home run since July 13th.  He’s now batting .247/.352/.430 on the season.
