Final: Helena 1, Billings 0, ten innings Brewers Split Series With Extra Inning Thriller Strzelecki Forces Game Ending Double Play With Bases Loaded By Greg Mroz / Helena Brewers What is going on with Pioneer League scores this year, at least from a Brewers perspective? Where's the slugfests? *** PHOTOS: The fine images we've seen this year on a near-daily basis continues *** Box Score / Game Log FIELDING DP: 4 (Egnatuk-Coca-McClanahan 3; Strzelecki-Sibrian-McClanahan). Seems like they've turned hundreds already. Silva, Whitmer, Strzelecki -- truly a night for the organizational newcomers.

Final: Colorado Springs 3, Round Rock 2 Your only online home for the road game summary is here -- SKY SOX COME OUT ON TOP IN GAME ONE'S PITCHING DUEL ROUND ROCK, Tex. – After just splitting a four-game series against the Memphis Redbirds at home in Colorado Springs, the Sky Sox took game one of this road trip and series with a 3-2 win over Round Rock on Friday night. The story of Friday's game was Colorado Springs' phenomenal pitching, and the Express batters inability to do much of anything against it. Aaron Brooks, who started on the mound for the Sky Sox tonight, threw 5.2 shutout innings, allowing just one sole hit, one walk, and two strikeouts in one of his best outings of the 2018 campaign. The only hit Brooks gave up in his start came in the bottom of the fifth inning, off the bat of Willie Calhoun. With one out already in the inning, Calhoun hit a single to left, ultimately being stranded on first after Brooks collected two more quick outs on three more pitches to finish the inning. In the very next half-inning, in the top of the sixth, the Sky Sox responded to Brooks' no-hit bid being broken up by scoring the first run of the series. Brett Phillips led off the inning with a pop out for out number one, before Tyrone Taylor clobbered a solo homer to give the Sky Sox a 1-0 lead. That proved to be the only run Round Rock's starter Richelson Pena would allow all night, as his start was nearly as polished as Brooks' was for Colorado Springs. In total, through six innings, Pena allowed just the one run on six hits with seven strikeouts and no walks. In the bottom of the seventh, the Express threatened to break up the shutout. Scott Heineman reached first after being hit by pitch to start the frame, advancing to second on a fly out. He moved up to third on another fly out to find himself 90 feet from home with two outs on the board, and Calhoun at the plate. Calhoun—still having the only Round Rock hit of the evening at that point after his one-out single in the fifth inning—grounded out to strand Heineman at third and send the game to the eighth. In the bottom of the eighth inning, Corbin Burnes was replaced on the mound by Nick Ramirez for Colorado Springs, who gave up a home run to the first batter he faced. Andy Ibanez hit a solo homer, his seventh of the season, to tie the game at 1-1 for Round Rock's first run and second hit of the evening. Heading into the ninth inning it was two solo homers—one from each squad—that comprised all the runs in the contest thus far. The tie was short-lived however, with the Sky Sox retaking the lead right away in the top of the ninth. Christian Bethancourt led off with a single, scoring two at-bats later on a Dylan Moore triple. Jett Bandy then hit an RBI single to score Moore from third to make it a 3-1 ballgame. In the bottom of the ninth, Drew Robinson led off with a double for the Express, scoring on a Heineman RBI single to reduce Colorado Springs' lead to just one run. The Sky Sox picked up two outs after that, before Calhoun singled for his second hit of the game to put two on for Ibanez. Ibanez grounded out to end the game, however, with the Sky Sox taking game one of this series with a tight 3-2 victory. The Sky Sox are on the road in the midst of a five-game set against the Express in Round Rock, before returning home on Independence Day to host the New Orleans Baby Cakes for five games. Saturday's Preview: In game two, the Sky Sox are sending righty Alec Asher to the mound to square off against Round Rock's Tyler Wagner, a former Milwaukee Brewer. Asher is searching for his fifth win of the season, whereas Wagner is still in search of his first. *** Box Score / Game Log RHP Aaron Brooks has been solid in his various mound roles this season. More convinced than ever we'll see Dylan Moore make his big league debut this season, two doubles and a triple here in what has truly been a remarkable, fascinating campaign. 2019 will be Tyrone Taylor's age 25 season. He is going to be one appetizing minor league free agent this fall. Unless the Brewers add him to a crowded 40-man, that is.

Final: Clinton 9, Wisconsin 7, ten innings Clinton Wins Wild, Extra-Inning Game Over Wisconsin By Chris Mehring / Wisconsin Timber Rattlers You'll want to read Chris' summary first to better appreciate all the highlights you'll see below... *** We later learned his back is ailing, but those were some seriously fat pitches (both curve and fastball) that Zach Davies tossed. (And no, scrum not included in the video package.) *** AUDIO via the Rattler Radio Soundcloud: "There is a lot to unwrap in tonight's Papa John's Pizza Postgame Podcast after a 9–7, ten-inning lost to the Clinton LumberKings. Chris Mehring & Kyle Lobner discuss a big Rattlers offensive inning, a bench-clearing incident, solid relief work, extra-innings, a couple of rehabs, wind-blown popups, and more. Plus, audio from K.J. Harrison, Robbie Hitt, and Matt Erickson." *** Box Score / Game Log Nice job by the pen trying to salvage Davies' outing; Tyler Saladino 0-for-5 with two walks in his two shortstop rehab starts thus far... *** VIDEO via wearegreenbay.com: Includes K.J. Harrison's mammoth home run *** Timber Rattlers reap benefits from Brewers' rehab visits This notes column from the Post-Crescent includes Matt Erickson comments on two team newcomers, RHP J.T. Hintzen and infielder Darren Sefarina.

17-year-old RHP Starling Javier was transferred from the DSL Brewers to the co-op Indians squad. Javier has made only one appearance thus far, his pro debut on the 25th. *** Fellow pro rookie RHP Wellington Nunez, just signed at the beginning of this month, returns to the DSL Brewers from the co-op squad. So he's gone from one club to the other twice now.

Shuckers Press Release provides the moves beyond Torres-Costa-- In a move announced by the Milwaukee Brewers, LHP Quintin Torres-Costa has been promoted to Triple-A Colorado Springs. A Southern League Mid-Season All-Star this year, Torres-Costa will report to the Sky Sox to make his debut at the Triple-A level. The lefty pitched to a 1.16 ERA in 21 relief appearances for the Shuckers, striking out 44 batters over 31 innings while holding opponents to a .160 batting average. The Shuckers have also placed RHP Miguel Sanchez on the disabled list. In a pair of corresponding moves, LHP Brad Kuntz and RHP Josh Uhen have been activated from the temporarily inactive and disabled lists, respectively. *** Uhen had been placed on the DL June 1st.

VIDEO via WXXV: An extended highlight package from the Biloxi loss, and a recap of the day's four transactions for the Shuckers, which I'll post in that thread after this morning's Link Report work is done. *** VIDEO via WLOX: Go back to Thursday evening for "Miley Wade's" start (sorry, had to), and a peak at Corey Ray's inside-the-park home run in the loss.
