Minor League Scorebook

Not much news tonight, so off we go...

2005-08-27: Salt Lake 5, Colorado Springs 6
Sorensen: 3-4
Callaspo, A: 1-5
Gorneault: 0-4, 1 RBI
Mathis, J: 0-4
Allen: 2-4
Saunders: 6.0 IP, 3 ER, 5 H, 1 K, 3 BB, 1 HR, 4.71 ERA
Bergman, D: (H, 7), 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 1 H, 1 K, 2 BB, 3.17 ERA
Jones: (BS, 2)(L, 1-2) (in relief), 1.2 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 2 K, 2 BB, 3.33 ERA
Saunders' effort qualifies as a quality start, which, in the thin air, deserves consideration. Remember Colorado Springs (6,035 ft.) is even higher than Denver (officially 5,280 ft.).
2005-08-27: Arkansas 12, Tulsa 9
Aybar, E: 2-5, 1 RBI
Willits, R: 2-3, 3 RBI
Kendrick, H: 1-5, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Murphy: 2-5, 1 HR, 4 RBI
Morales, K: 3-5, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Collazo: 4.0 IP, 9 ER, 2 HR, 6.58 ERA
Pullin: (W, 4-6) (in relief), 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 5.40 ERA
Not such a good day for the pitching, but a big shout out to Kendry Morales, who's hit six home runs in his last nine games. He's in the middle of a 13-game hitting streak, during which he's hitting .532/.569/.957 with six homers, but only four walks versus seven strikeouts.

Update: There's reasons to read the box scores, of course, and in this case a good one. It was a heck of a dramatic game, with Tommy Murphy belting a rally-sealing grand slam to win it. The Travs' magic number is three.

2005-08-27: Lake Elsinore 8, Rancho Cucamonga 6
Wood, B: 2-4
Brown: 2-4, 2 RBI
Edwards: 4.0 IP, 3 ER, 1 HR, 4.86 ERA
Dowdy: (L, 2-4) (in relief), 2.1 IP, 2 ER, 4 H, 2 K, 0 BB, 1 HR, 5.06 ERA
Zimmermann: 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 3.14 ERA
2005-08-27: Cedar Rapids 4, Burlington 3
Rodriguez, S: 1-5, 1 RBI
Sutton: 3-6, 3 RBI
Collins: 1-4
Madrigal: 1-5
Green: 7.0 IP, 1 ER, 3.24 ERA
Simard: (W, 9-8) (in relief), 2.0 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 2 K, 2 BB, 1 HR, 5.70 ERA
2005-08-27: AZL Angels 2, AZL Royals 3
Moore: 2-4
Ryan: 0-2, 2 BB
Cassevah: 4.0 IP, 0 ER, 5.02 ERA
Beck: (L, 1-3) (in relief), 1.2 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 2 K, 0 BB, 2.05 ERA
Bobby Cassevah is coming off Tommy John surgery, so I should go easy on him. The Angels seem to be babying him a bit, so I'm not surprised he has only gone a max of five innings so far.

FutureAngels says that Gustavo Espinoza and Richard/Ryan Aldridge have gotten a callup to Orem. Good luck with that, guys.

2005-08-27: Idaho Falls 4, Orem 9
Coon: 4-5
Statia: 2-5, 2 RBI
Morris: 2-4, 3 RBI
Trumbo: 1-5, 1 RBI
Martinez: 2-4
Albano: 3-4, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Hawkins: (W, 5-2), 6.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 6 K, 1 BB, 3.70 ERA
Whittington: 1.2 IP, 3 ER, 2 H, 3 K, 2 BB, 4.08 ERA
Sullivan: 1.1 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 3 K, 0 BB, 5.61 ERA
Daniel Hawkins

Daniel Hawkins

I haven't checked in on Trumbo in a while, but it appears that he's getting his doubles in, though few home runs. The real story of the day, though, was starter Daniel Hawkins, who pitched the best game of his season tonight, providing Orem with two consecutive dominating pitching performances. By being a fifth-year senior at St. Leo's in St. Petersburg, Florida, he ended up an amateur free agent, scouted and signed by area scout Tom Kotchman. At 22, he's a little old for this league, so he needs to hurry up.
2005-08-27: Las Vegas 9, Portland 11
Flores: 1-4, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Young, D: 1-5
Grabowski: 1-5, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Myrow: 0-2, 3 BB
Chen: 2-5
Nakamura: 2-5, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Ross: 2-4, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Nixon: 2-4, 1 RBI
Gonzalez: 1-1, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Nall: (L, 6-6), 4.0 IP, 6 ER, 8 H, 1 K, 4 BB, 1 HR, 7.05 ERA
Gonzalez: 2.2 IP, 2 ER, 2 H, 3 K, 1 BB, 1 HR, 4.29 ERA
It doesn't look like there was a lot in the way of quality pitching going on here, but Andy Ashby actually threw three innings of one-run ball for the Beavers. He's hoping to find a job in the majors -- presumably with the Padres -- in spring training.
"I would love to pitch again, and hopefully, it will happen here," Ashby said earlier this month. "The main thing is to get healthy and show them in Spring Training I can pitch. It's been so frustrating being hurt.

"I appreciate (the Padres) keeping me here. I've been here off and on all year, sitting around watching this team. For them to bring me here means a lot to me. Hopefully, I can do something for them."

Ashby is recovering from Tommy John surgery in 2003, and shoulder surgery earlier this year.

A beautiful one-hitter for Chad Billingsley.

It's tough to win both ends of a doubleheader; good going, boys. Expect to see a lot of doubleheaders getting played over the next week or three because of Tropical Storm Katrina.
