So we’ve got the Brewers struggling, a new injury concern (Pratt HBP on hands, though he did steal a base and score before exiting) and a 4-Win Saturday affiliate sweep.
Biloxi has roared back to a .500 record with a second straight series win. Made hit the grand slam for Carolina, while Hedbert Perez, Zavier Warren, Luke Adams, Wes Clarke and Anthony Seigler homered elsewhere.
Alexander Cornielle and Melvin Hernandez each tossed 5 scoreless innings of 3-hit ball. Logan Henderson only allowed 1 hit (a homer) over 6 innings of impeccable work. And Tyson Hardin finally conceded some runs (just 2).
I’d imagine a Brewers’ staffer spent part of last night trying to convince the brass to book Jadher Areinamo on an early morning flight from Cedar Rapids to points south (e.g. 5:30am Atlanta->Biloxi) and Josh Adamczewski to points north (7:29am Columbia->DC->Cedar Rapids). Or maybe Dylan O’Rae will magically re-appear in Biloxi.
