Minor League Scorebook
The only news item today is that the Dodgers called up Willie Aybar to replace Cesar Izturis, who was sent to the DL. And with that, on to the scores...
2005-08-28: Salt Lake 5, Colorado Springs 2
Sorensen: 2-5
Callaspo, A: 3-5
Gorneault: 3-4, 2 RBI
Pavkovich: 2-3, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Escobar: 3.0 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 4 K, 4 BB, 3.24 ERA
Rouwenhorst: (W, 4-3) (in relief), 3.0 IP, 0 ER, 2 H, 4 K, 0 BB, 4.72 ERA
Prinz: 2.0 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 0 K, 2 BB, 5.87 ERA
Thin air or not, Escobar pitched a great three innings in this one. Gorneault and Callaspo both had great outings, too. The win put Salt Lake one shy of the franchise's 10,000th, closing a six-game skid, and put the Stingers a half game closer to the top of the division.

2005-08-28: Arkansas 10, Tulsa 5
Aybar, E: 2-6, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Willits, R: 1-4
Kendrick, H: 3-5, 1 RBI
Napoli, M: 2-5, 1 RBI
Morales, K: 4-5, 1 RBI
Eylward: 2-4, 1 RBI
Gates: 2-5, 1 HR, 3 RBI
Davidson: 3.0 IP, 4 ER, 2 HR, 4.58 ERA
Pullin: (W, 5-6) (in relief), 3.1 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 5.15 ERA
It'd be shorter to list the games Howie Kendrick hasn't hit in since he got called up than the ones he has. Since playing his first game 7/17, his record looks like this:
Willits, R: 1-4
Kendrick, H: 3-5, 1 RBI
Napoli, M: 2-5, 1 RBI
Morales, K: 4-5, 1 RBI
Eylward: 2-4, 1 RBI
Gates: 2-5, 1 HR, 3 RBI
Davidson: 3.0 IP, 4 ER, 2 HR, 4.58 ERA
Pullin: (W, 5-6) (in relief), 3.1 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 5.15 ERA
It'd be shorter to list the games Howie Kendrick hasn't hit in since he got called up than the ones he has. Since playing his first game 7/17, his record looks like this:
From - To G H-AB ======================= 7/17 - 7/21 4 8-18 7/22 1 0-4 7/23 - 7/27 5 7-23 7/28 - 7/29 3 0-10 7/30 - 8/20 20 34-84 8/21 1 0-3 8/22 - 8/28 6 10-26
That is, he's only had five 0-fer games since getting the callup, with a 20-game hitting streak sandwiched in, which is simply amazing. His strikeouts are still a bit of a worry, as he has more than three times the whiffs (17) as he does walks (5); as a result, he's hitting .351/.370/.589 with six dingers for the Travs.
With his 4-5 game tonight, Kendry Morales has now brought his line to .306/.349/.536 with 16 home runs for the Travs.
Opposition pitcher Blaine Neal, making a rehab start for the Rockies, was struck by a line drive directly below the eye; he left the field under his own power and was sent to a local hospital for further examination. He surrendered two earned runs without making an out prior to the hit.
With the victory, the Travs' magic number is two.
Jered Weaver makes another start for the Travs tomorrow night. Keep your fingers crossed...
2005-08-28: Lake Elsinore 2, Rancho Cucamonga 1
Wood, B: 1-4
Holcomb: 8.0 IP, 0 ER, 5.15 ERA
Zimmermann: (BS, 7)(L, 6-8) (in relief), 1.0 IP, 2 ER, 3 H, 0 K, 1 BB, 3.39 ERA
Don't bother rubbing your eyes; at 25, James Holcomb isn't really a prospect. Still, it was a good game for him. On the other hand, Zimmermann... well, he's supposed to be a prospect, anyway.

2005-08-28: Cedar Rapids 5, Burlington 2
Rodriguez, S: 2-4, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Collins: 3-5
Toussaint: 2-4, 1 HR, 1 RBI
Renz: 2-4, 1 RBI
Ray: (W, 7-5), 6.2 IP, 1 ER, 7 H, 3 K, 1 BB, 4.17 ERA
Sean Rodriguez isn't really on my radar; you'd think a guy could hit better than .246/.369/.402 in the Midwest League, but what do I know. Anyway, those numbers show some very impressive plate discipline, as does the fact that he's got almost as many walks (73) as strikeouts (76), a rarity among Angels prospects.

Martinez: 2-4
Maldonado: 0-2, 2 BB
Mosebach: (W, 3-3), 5.0 IP, 0 ER, 4 H, 2 K, 0 BB, 4.58 ERA
Espinoza: 2.0 IP, 2 ER, 3 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 9.00 ERA
Espinoza's first game for the Owlz, and a big splat. Well, this is why the minor leagues exist, right? Fortunately for him, Dallas Morris is hot, in the middle of a seven-game hitting streak during which he's hitting .393/.485/.643.

Young, D: 1-4
Eckert: (L, 5-9), 4.0 IP, 6 ER, 8 H, 2 K, 4 BB, 2 HR, 6.18 ERA
A really hard game for the 51's, as Ben Johnson slugged two homers, including a grand slam. He drove in seven runs, tying a Beavers team record.

Comments:
Not sure. The Catfish website game recap doesn't give any indication, either. He pitched four on 8/12, though.
