Another day of baseball in the books. See how the teams and prospects performed in their games last night.
AAA: Fresno Grizzlies (35-37) OFF
AA: Corpus Christi Hooks (35-37) lost 7-4 (BOX SCORE)
Emanuel had been rolling his last few outings but last night didn’t go well. He went 6 innings and allowed 5 runs. Corpus entered the 2nd inning down 5-0 but got 2 runs on a Stubbs RBI groundout and a Laureano RBI single. Mayfield added an RBI single in the 4th to bring them closer. Unfortunately, San Antonio played add on late and the deficit was too much to overcome.
