AA: Tennessee Smokies 13, Chattanooga Lookouts 9

The looks had 14 hits including five doubles, but still managed to lose this one thanks to a lot of poor pitching. All four pitchers who appeared in the game for the Lookouts gave up at least one run. SP Aaron Slegers was yanked after giving up six earned runs on the first 2 innings. RP Brandon Peterson replaced Slegers, but didn’t do much better, giving up four runs over 2 innings. RP Ryan Eades threw the next 3 innings, giving up two earned runs, and RP Tyler Jay pitched the final two innings and gave up one run.

C Mitch Garver was the offensive standout or the Lookouts, going 2-for-4 with two doubles, one walk, one RBI, and one run scored. 3B Leonardo Reginatto, CF Zach Granite, and 1B D.J. Hicks each hit a double as well.

High A: Ft. Myers Miracle 7, Palm Beach Cardinals 1

1B T.J. White and RF Joe Maloney both homered as the Miracle trounced the Cardinals 7-1. Both dongs were solo shots, but the Miracle found other creative ways to rack up the score too. 2B Alex Perez drew a bases loaded walk in the 6th inning, for instance, and 3B Chris Paul scored on a passed ball in the 8th.

SP Randy Rosario turned out a quality start for the Miracle, giving up only one run on four hits and three walks over 6.2 innings.
