AAA: Reno 8, Sacramento 7 (12 innings)
Sacramento Notes:
- Joe McCarthy continues to hit well, with his 5th 2-hit game out of the last six games, with a pair of home runs and a double during that span. His batting average has gone up from .296 to .316 over the run.
- Jaylin Davis has only played 20 games in Triple-A this season after a number of injuries, but he’s shown his power. He’s hit home runs in 9 of those 20 games.
- After a chilly July in which he hit (.241/.351/.405), Bryce Johnson hit his 11th double and 7th home runs of the season. He was one of the key players in Sacramento keeping the team in the game into extras.
- Brandon Belt’s rehab continued with his first hit of rehab in his 3rd game, as well as his second walk (7 total plate appearances).
- Reyes Moronta got the start while rehabbing, with a scoreless inning. In 3.2 innings so far, he has four strikeouts and four walks.
- Camilo Doval had a strange batting line, walking four in 1.0 innings, but somehow not allowing any runs, and striking out three. He came into the 7th with two out, walked a batter, then struck one out to get out of the inning. In the 8th, he struck out two, but walked the bases loaded before being lifted, but none scored.
AA: Bowie 6, Richmond 4
Richmond Notes:
- Sandro Fabian hit a home run to open up August, his 9th of the season. He had three in July, when he hit .224 over the month.
- Jacob Heyward hit a home run for his only hit of the day, his first home run since July 4th. That gives him eight on the season.
- Will Wilson started off the month with a double, his 4th double in Richmond in 23 games. Wilson has a batting line of .187/.288/.330 with four doubles and three home runs since his promotion, with 36 strikeouts to 11 walks.
- Simon Whiteman played his first pro game in center field, getting a hit, with a chance to show off his speed and defense out there.
- Raffi Vizcaino made just his second start of the season, and struggled a bit over his two innings. He has a 4.97 ERA over 29.0 innings this year.
High-A: Everett 7, Eugene 6
Eugene Notes:
- Tyler Fitzgerald got a 2-hit game with his 20th double of the season. It was Fitzgerald’s third 2-hit game out of the last four. He’s starting August off with a .268/.354/.487 batting line.
- Brett Auerbach started off August with a bruise, maybe two of them. He got hit by two pitches as well as hitting a double, his 5th in 95 at-bats at Eugene.
- Armani Smith had a cold July, batting .203 on the month. He played in his first game since July 22nd, and got two hits with his 8th double in Eugene.
- Jake Dahlberg got hit hard in his second game for the Giants organization in Eugene. He didn’t walk anyone, but he gave up nine hits, two of them home runs.
Low-A: San Jose 6, Inland Empire 3
