TUESDAY'S RESULTS

Augusta over Lexington 2-1 in 11 innings
Three solo home runs accounted for all of the scoring in this pitching duel. Mike Foltynewicz pitched beautifully, giving up one run (a solo homer) on five hits with one walk and five strikeouts over seven innings. Dayan Diaz provided two hitless innings and Murilo Gouvea was charged with the loss as he gave up a home run in his second inning of relief. Delino DeShields provided all of Lexington's offense with his third home run of the season. Matt Duffy's seventh inning double broke up Augusta pitcher Clayton Blackburn's no-hit bid.

Lake Elsinore over Lancaster 7-4
Jorge de Leon (L, 0-5) continues to struggle -- six runs on five hits and five walks in only three innings. Zach Grimmett provided five solid innings of long relief, surrendering only one run on five hits. Ben Orloff was one-for-four with a two run single, Kike Hernandez hit a solo home run and Adam Bailey had an RBI double and an outfield assist in his last appearance as a JetHawk before his promotion to Corpus Christi today. Domingo Santana was two-for-four with a walk.

Corpus - Off Day

GAME OF THE DAY
Oklahoma City over Nashville 2-0 (Game called after five innings)

What went right: A great start by Dallas Keuchel and a little intervention from Mother Nature.

Dallas Keuchel needed a good start since his last two had been a bit rocky (to say the least) and he got it. Keuchel worked quickly and efficiently, allowing only four scattered hits and striking out three. He had only thrown 59 pitches so he appeared to be good for the long haul, but Mother Nature intervened with high winds, rain and then hail and the game was called. Brad Snyder and Jimmy Paredes provided the offense with RBI doubles.

Dallas Keuchel (W, 5-4) - 5IP 4H 0R 0BB 3SO

Brad Snyder - 1x2 2B RBI BB SO
Jimmy Paredes - 1x2 2B RBI
Carlos Corporan - 1x1 2B R

What went wrong: Not much of anything.

PITCHER OF THE DAY
Mike Foltynewicz continues to make a statement. He pitched seven innings for only the second time this season. I think his pitching deeper into games on a routine basis will help him immensely when he gets the eventual promotion for which he is rapidly making a very good case.

PLAYER OF THE DAY
I'll go with Delino DeShields for showing us that he does indeed have a little pop in his bat.
