4/28: Around the Cubs Minor League System
Here is your nightly recap for the Cubs minor league system, full recaps/box scores after the jump, enjoy.
Daytona was off
Tough one for Peoria tonight as they blew a 5-2 lead in the fourth inning en route to a 6-5 defeat to Fort Wayne. Paul Hoilman continued his hot stretch at the plate going 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI’s. Six of the nine Chiefs starters registered a hit, unfortunately they couldn’t string anything together after the fourth inning. Jose Rosario started for the Chiefs and was beat up pretty bad, allowing 5 runs over 5 and 1/3rd innings. Austin Reed took the loss out of the bullpen.
***
Tennessee was finally able to plate more than two runs against the Generals, unfortunately they had to settle for the same old result, falling 6-4. Jae-Hoon Ha, Justin Bour, Matthew Cerda, and Michael Burgess all had two hits on the night. Burgess had most of the production going 2-for-4 with home run, a double, and three RBI’s. Dallas Beeler took his first loss, but didn’t pitch too poorly, giving up four runs over five innings of work.
***
Chris Rusin was outstanding for the I-Cubs Saturday night, unfortunately the I-Cubs bats just couldn’t get it going and ended up falling to Nashville 3-0. Dave Sappelt, Anthony Rizzo, and Josh Vitters were the only I-Cubs to register a hit as it was slim pickings out there. Casey Coleman took the loss out of the bullpen giving up all three runs, two earned.
