Minor League Update: Buffalo two-hits Charlotte

Trevor Crowe hit his first Buffalo home run for the Herd last night. He led the game off with it and that would be all David Huff and the bullpen would need. Huff went 5 innings giving up just one hit, while the bullpen finished it off with one hit themselves.

Akron got three-hit themselves last night as their sliding continues. Frank Herrmann went four innings giving up just one run and Tony Sipp finally had an easy night, going one scoreless in relief. Chuck Lofgren pitched four innings out of the bullpen giving up one run.

Kinston lost and Matt McBride went 0-4 in his Kinston debut. He DHed.. Armando Camacaro back in Kinston was the catcher.. Boy with Santana on his way there certainly is some issues to work out at who's gonna catch. This is really confusing.. Kinston now has six catchers.

Matt Brown went 4-5 with 3 RBI, but Lake County fell to West Virginia again.

Mahoning Valley was rained out...

Abner Abreu hit his seventh home run of the year for the GCL Team. Angel Rodriguez and Jasom Smit went deep as well. They lost though.

Here is a MILB.com article on the two prospects in the Blake trade.. Some real encouraging stuff in there about both players.
