Final: Arizona Rookie Diamondbacks 3, Arizona Brewers 1 Maryvale Box Score 32nd round UA-Huntsville RHP Wilson Adams, 19-year-old Venezuelan RHP Nelson Hernandez, and first-year stateside 23-year-old LHP Boanerges Nova combined to strike out 11 while walking none, but fell victim in this low-scoring contest. A-Crew bats managed only four singles and three walks, yet managed to have ten at-bats with RISP. They failed miserably in those situations, though, 0-for-10. A night after we praised the club's defense on the season, three errors here, although none led to unearned runs. It's been a few weeks since we mentioned CF Jose Gomez is just 5'3", the 22-year-old RH bat reached three times here, now with a .419 OBP. Maryvale Game Log AZL Brewers Top of the 2nd Pitching Change: Luis Madero replaces Andrew Chafin. Gabriel Garcia grounds out, shortstop Didimo Bracho to first baseman Nic Coffman. Jay Feliciano grounds out, third baseman Joey Rose to first baseman Nic Coffman. Nick Cain grounds out, third baseman Joey Rose to first baseman Nic Coffman. AZL D-backs Bottom of the 2nd Defensive Substitution: Ignacio Otano replaces right fielder Jay Feliciano, batting 5th, playing right field. 20-year-old 6'2", 215 OF Jay Feliciano has some pop, slugging a healthy .463 in the desert. Hopefully OK, something to watch...

Final: Missoula 13, Helena 8 The only game story is purely from a Missoula perspective, and a day after allowing an Osprey record 26 hits in a game, maybe that's best for a Helena pitching effort that results in 13 runs allowed (ten earned) on 17 hits. Helena Box Score Starting RHP Nattino Diplan was dented for 10 runs (eight earned) in three plus innings, as LHP Shawn Clowers allowed all three of Diplan's runners to score in a wild six-run 4th. RHP Aaron Myers remains a bright spot with his 0.00 ERA after 6.2 Helena innings of relief. Helena Game Log Eight runs, so yes, some things to see. Days off for Orimoloye and Lara...

Final: Arizona Diamondbacks 5, Arizona Brewers 3, 12 innings Weather: 100 degrees, partly cloudy. Wind: 12 mph, Out to CF. Maryvale Box Score A-Crew falls to 2-3 in the second half; D-Backs scored an unearned run in the 8th to get within a run, then scored once in the 9th against RHP Jack Finnegan, who was still in the game in the 12th when the two fall-behind runs pushed across. Second year LHP Christian Trent set down all nine men he faced, we're still unaware specifically what injury he's coming back from. Just-turned 18-year-old RHP Michael Gonzalez allowed a solo home run in his three-inning start, and little else. Maryvale Game Log Four Brewers in the middle of the lineup had multi-hit games; all but one of the Maryvale hits were singles. RF Nick Cain has been searching for a big offensive day, and he netted the double as part of a 3-for-5 effort that included a base on balls.

VIDEO via KDRO: Colorado Springs highlights

Biloxi shortstop Angel Ortega's first full month (July) at AA produced a .361 OPS (.155/.170/.191) in 29 games, 110 at-bats. Normally we accentuate the positive around here, but that stands out. To be fair, in his first seven AA debut games in June, Ortega came out smoking at an .840 OPS.

14th round pick, born in Puerto Rico, not sure when he first came stateside, but he entered Broward (FL) Community College as a 17-year-old freshman, turned 18 in December, was a young 18 when he put up these numbers in the spring. His school's press release upon being drafted -- Garcia, a second team All-Southern Conference selection, started 49 of 52 games played and batted .263 (46 for 175) with 32 runs, 12 doubles, three triples, 10 home runs, 36 runs batted in, 31 walks, five hit-by-pitches and one sacrifice fly to post a .537 slugging percentage and a .387 on-base percentage. He led the Seahawks in home runs, slugging percentage and triples (three). According to the latest NJCAA Region 8 statistics (June 13), Garcia is ninth in home runs and 47th in runs batted in. Just prior to the draft, Garcia was in the midst of playing in the wood bat Valley Baseball League, one of the many national collegiate summer leagues, for the Waynesboro Generals in Virginia. He was red-hot as of draft day June 10th -- The hitter of the day is Winchester’s Gabriel Garcia, from Broward. The young man from Coamo, Puerto Rico went 3-4, with a run, 4 RBIs, a double, and a home run. He’s now 12-24 in the young Valley League season; he has a hit in all six Royals games. At Broward, he hit 263/387/537, and was named 2nd Team All-Conference. In short, nice scouting, and a 1.145 OPS after his first 16 pro games.

Timber Rattlers tweet -- Juan Ortiz comes up limping after beating out a potential double play ball. Jake Gatewood on to pinch run in the 4th.

With Manny Pina on catcher standby duty in Milwaukee (will he fly to San Diego with the Brewers tonight?), catcher roulette in the Brewers' system as Rene Garcia starts Sunday afternoon for the Sky Sox (up from Biloxi to join Parker Berberet as active Colorado Springs catchers), and Dustin Houle goes to AA for the very first time, up from Brevard, to join Jacob Nottingham in Biloxi. In order to make room for Garcia at AAA, the Brewers are making use of the very rarely utilized "reserve list" for Pina. The Sky Sox remain at an odd 14 pitchers / 11 position player split. That leaves the position-flexible duo of Fidel Pena and the recently-promoted Mitch Ghelfi to catch in Brevard County. And talk about a lopsided roster, the Manatees are now one player short at 24, and have only ten position players at this time while carrying a bloated 14-man staff in a pitcher-friendly environment. Not that we would do any better, but it must be a heck of a whiteboard of puzzle pieces Tom Flanagan and his staff maintain.

Junior Guerra actually broke that news!
