Final: Colorado Springs 13, Iowa 7 Sky Sox Rebound With 13-7 Dismantling Of Iowa Seven-Run Eighth Fuels Colorado Springs In Series Finale By Ed Pearsall / Colorado Springs Sky Sox http://www.milb.com/assets/images/6/1/4/123760614/cuts/04_27_034_pk_l5qozhh8_ubpi66ka.jpg Matt Long lead Monday's offensive onslaught with a three-run home run and four RBI in the Sox 13-7 win. (File Photo from prior game by Paat Kelly) The Sky Sox exacted their revenge on Monday afternoon in their 13-7 defeat of the I-Cubs in front of 4,152 fans at Principal Park in Iowa. After falling 14-2 to these same I-Cubs on Sunday, the Sky Sox scored early and often, tallying at least one run in four separate innings off of three different pitchers. Pete Orr got the Sox offense on the board almost immediately, drilling Iowa starter Dallas Beeler's third pitch of the game over the right field fence to leadoff the game with a home run and give his team a quick 1-0 lead. The long ball was Orr's first of the young season. The Colorado Springs offense notched two more runs off of Beeler in the third inning after walks to Ben Guez and Orr would both come around to score on a two-out, Shane Peterson RBI double to centerfield. Holding a 3-0 lead going into the home fourth, Sox starter Taylor Jungmann would run into his first trouble of the ballgame. With one out in the frame, Jungmann hit speedster John Andreoli with a pitch before walking former phenom Javy Baez to give the I-Cubs runners on first and second with one out and catcher Rafael Lopez coming to the plate. Lopez lined a triple down the right field line to plate both Andreoli and Baez, cutting the Iowa deficit to one. Lopez would score the game's tying run on a Junior Lake groundout, giving the game new life. Jungmann and the Sky Sox offense would answer with no hesitation, scoring three runs in the Colorado Springs fifth thanks to four hits and an I-Cubs error. Jungmann's leadoff single would ultimately help his own cause as he came around to score the go-ahead run on Luis Sardinas' RBI single to left. Orr, who doubled earlier in the frame to move Jungmann to third, came home on Lopez's throwing error when trying to nab Sardinas in what would be a stolen base. Matt Long brought home the inning's final run with an RBI single to score Sardinas and give the Sox their three-run lead right back at 6-3. Jungmann could not hold the Sox lead however, allowing three more runs on three hits and a walk in the bottom of the frame to once again tie the ballgame. After a leadoff double by Chris Valaika opened the inning, Mike Baxter walked before John Andreoli plated both runners on an RBI triple to right field. Baez followed with an RBI single to score Andreoli and re-tie the ballgame at six. After getting Junior Lake looking to end the tough frame, Jungmann would wind up striking out the side despite surrendering the lead. The big right-hander finished his day after five innings of work, allowing six runs on four hits and three walks while striking out five. Both bullpens would trade scoreless frames after the 10-run fifth. The I-Cubs would crack first however, allowing seven runs to the potent Sky Sox lineup in the eighth inning on four hits, a walk and two throwing errors. Right-hander Blake Cooper (2-1, 1.65) would get stuck with the loss after allowing four unearned runs in his 1.2 innings of relief. Having already scored four in the inning, the big blow came on Long's two-out, three-run home run to right-center off of Iowa lefty Joe Ortiz. Orr, Peterson and Nevin Ashley each added RBI base-hits in eighth prior to the inning-capping homer. Fresh off rejoining the Sky Sox after a stint in Milwaukee, Rob Wooten (1-0, 5.40) would earn the win in a scoreless two-inning performance as he combined with David Goforth to maintain the Colorado Springs lead. Goforth would allow one run on two hits and a walk over his two innings of work, striking out three batters along the way to secure the wild 13-7 win over Iowa. With the victory, the Sky Sox earn a series-split and move to 11-20 on the season as the I-Cubs fall to 15-16 in the series-finale. Colorado Springs will look to make it two games in a row on Tuesday evening as they head back home to take on the Memphis Redbirds in game one of a four-game set. Tyler Thornburg (0-0, 2.31) gets the call against Redbirds lefty John Gast (1-2, 5.79) with first pitch set for 6:35 PM MDT (5:35 Central) at Security Service Field. Colorado Springs Box Score Taylor Jungmann losing not one, but two three-run leads, is disheartening; Luis Sardinas living up to the reputation - pretty .290 average, ugly .318 OBP - five walks, 124 AB's; sort the team's stats to see that places Sardinas at the very bottom among the Sky Sox regulars...

Minor Details Blog -- Latest Recap Entry from Jeff Levering

Shuckers press release with the details -- Brewers place catcher Tyler LaTorre on Helena's squad as an extra body / taxi squad guy.

One day after a disastrous blowup outing in Iowa, the Brewers announce RHP Chris Leroux has been placed on the Sky Sox disabled list, with RHP Tim Dillard brought back from Helena paper roster exodus to take his spot.

This needed to happen, hoping David can rake in Helena -- Via the Brewers -- First baseman Alan Sharkey & RHP Joshua Torres have been transferred to Wisconsin. First baseman David Denson has been transferred to extended spring; RHP Victor Diaz to the DL. *** Will be nice to see what 2014's Arizona League ERA champ (Torres) can do in Appleton. Diaz has managed a fine ERA but ugly peripherals in his second Wisconsin go-round, he pitched five innings on Wednesday. This will be Sharkey's Timber Rattlers debut, in his age 21 season. Denson's OPS was down to .569 this spring (.714 last summer while at the same level).

Monday's farmhand birthday should be a big part of this summer's Helena staff, as RHP Jordan Yamamoto turns 19.

AUDIO, Game Highlights / Lowlights: Tampa scores five runs in the ninth to top Brevard County, 6-2 *** AUDIO: Taylor Brennan joins the Manatees Radio Network for an emotional Mother's Day conversation

Catching up with updates from the Manatees' most recent game (Saturday, including quotes in this report) -- Space Explorers squander series finale against Tampa Donald Rieber Jr., Examiner.com PHOTO GALLERY via Dennis Greenblatt/Hawk-Eye Sports Photography The Brevard County Space Explorers were three outs away from sweeping the Tampa Yankees on Saturday night. Unfortunately, those three outs were difficult to come by. The Yankees scored five runs in the top of the ninth and turned a 2-1 deficit into a 6-2 victory. The Space Explorers (14-15) were in the driver’s seat for much of the game. They scored first in the top of the third inning against Tampa starter Luis Niebla. Angel Ortega walked to start the inning and went to third one out later, on a Chris McFarland single. Taylor Brennan’s sacrifice fly scored Ortega, putting Brevard County ahead 1-0. Tampa (16-14) answered back in the top of the fourth when Michael O’Neill ripped a double to left against Space Explorers starter Brandon Woodruff. That brought Mike Ford home with the tying the tying run. The Space Explorers broke the tie in the bottom of the inning against Tampa reliever Chad Taylor. Garrett Cooper drew a one out walk and went to second on Rafael Neda’s single to center. That brought Jose Pena to the plate. Pena has been a hero in the last two games for Brevard County, driving in the winning run in Friday’s 5-4 victory and hitting a home run that sparked a seven-run third inning in Thursday’s 8-4 win. Saturday, he had a chance to do something big and he did get into a pitch from Taylor sending to leftfielder Ericson Leonora, who was camped under it and seemingly lost sight of it, as it glanced off his glove and loaded the bases. Ortega grounded to third base, Tampa got the force at second, but it allowed Cooper to score, giving the Space Explorers a 2-1 lead. McFarland’s single in the third and Neda’s single in the fourth, ended up being the only hits that Brevard County would muster all night. They went hitless against three Yankees relievers. From there, it was all about pitching and defense for Brevard County. Woodruff went 4.2 innings, giving one run on five hits, walking five and striking out three. Preston Gainey took over and went two innings, giving up three hits. “Gainey came in with a couple guys on base and worked out of a jam,” said Space Explorers manager Joe Ayrault. “He worked a couple more scoreless for us and then (Casey) Medlen came in with a couple guys on, worked out of his jam. Just a tough ninth, a five-run ninth.” Kaleb Earls was responsible for that five-run ninth. He was called on to hold the one run lead and ran into trouble immediately. Abiatal Avelino started the frame with a single to left. Tyler Wade then a hit a bloop double to left, moving Avelino to third. Miguel Andujar was next and waited Earls out, taking three straight balls. He finally got a pitch he liked and deposited it onto the left field berm deck, near the scoreboard. That gave the Yankees a 4-2 advantage. “First guy really battled. It was a good at bat by Avelino,” said Ayrault. ”Earls got ahead of him, but he battled and found a hole… and Wade, he’s a scrappy hitter man, a heck of a player and he hit a two strike slash double right over Brennan’s head.” Wade had an at-bat against Woodruff in the top of the fifth that went on for 16 pitches. He fouled 10 pitches off, before Woodruff was able to strike him out. Ayrault was impressed with that at bat by Wade, as well as the ninth inning at bat he touched on. The visitors added a couple more before they were done. Those runs would be charged to Earls as well, as he left with runners on, in favor of Scott Lieser. Earls would be charged with five runs in 0.2 innings of work and was charged with the loss. He gave up four hits and struck out one. The Space Explorers ended their promotional run with Saturday’s loss. Sunday is a Florida State League off-day, in honor of Mother's Day. The homestand will resume Monday, when the Manatees host the Bradenton Marauders at Space Coast Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 PM (5:35 Central). Right-hander Javi Salas (3-2, 3.00 ERA) is scheduled to start for Brevard County. He will be opposed by lefty Cody Dickson (2-3, 2.97 ERA).

SKY SOX PHOTO GALLERY -- Brad Krause of Miller Park Prospects made the Iowa tour this weekend -- earlier we had linked to his Timber Rattlers photo gallery from Davenport, and he made his way to Des Moines and the Sky Sox on Sunday, visit at the link. The beards are just ridiculous -- newcomer LHP Michael Kirkman started his way before signing with the Crew, it seems. It's one thing when the team is playing well and you've got this "hockey playoff bonding" thing going, but when you're 10-20, it's just really silly. Of course, the Brewers hands are tied now, can't tick off the AAA boys at this point by telling them to at least trim things up (they might get testy and you might "lose them"...). Brad has the first photo of newcomer infielder Chris Nelson among the many shots.

Lopez dominates in Shuckers' shutout Brewers' No. 12 prospect ties career high with eight strikeouts By Jake Seiner / MiLB.com Biloxi manager Carlos Subero wasn't concerned when Jorge Lopez looked uncertain in his first couple of starts. This is the right-hander's first time in Double-A, you expect some jitters. Subero anticipated Lopez would gain confidence, but he didn't expect so much aplomb by early May. "Today was something special," Subero said. "It was, 'This is my game.' He took ownership and executed with it." The Brewers' No. 12 prospect tied a career high with eight strikeouts, going seven innings in the Shuckers' 2-0 win over Mississippi. He carried a no-hit bid into the sixth and ended up allowing just one knock. The 2011 second-round pick threw 61 of 90 pitches for strikes, did not walk a batter for the first time this year and dropped his ERA to 2.70 in six starts. Over 30 innings, he's struck out 27 and walked 14 in his first Southern League stint. "He was very confident," Subero said. "Especially in Double-A, when they get here, they might be a little tentative. That's normal for everybody. He was very confident on the mound today and I liked that. You could tell right from the beginning." Lopez (3-2) came out looking like a different pitcher Sunday, something that's built as the season's gone on. He faced the minimum through five innings -- the only baserunner to reach was Emerson Landoni on a hit-by-pitch, and he was thrown out trying to steal second. Lopez picked up four strikeouts over the first two innings, then needed only 37 pitches to work through innings three, four and five. After Landoni reached, Lopez retired 14 consecutive batters, maintaining a no-hitter until Eric Garcia lined a single to right with one out in the sixth. The 22-year-old right-hander retired five straight after that, striking out Seth Lohman to complete his seven-inning stint. "He was able to spot his fastball to both sides of the plate," Subero said. "He had a good changeup working for him. His curve, he had a feel for it." Most notable from Lopez's repertoire was the command of his breaking ball. Subero said Sunday was the best he's seen Lopez locate the offering. "He's always had a good curve," Subero said. "The last couple of outings, he was able to use it but not like tonight. He had a feel for it. It was so good, he was throwing it behind in the count. He struck out a right-hander on a 3-2 curve, and it even surprised us in the dugout; we weren't expecting that. Then he threw one to the next hitter, 1-0, and he was on a roll." Lopez spent all of last season with Class A Advanced Brevard County, where he posted a 4.58 ERA in 25 starts. He struck out 119 batters over 137 2/3 innings and induced more groundouts than flyouts. He impressed the Brewers with his mental fortitude, pitching through the season while his infant son, Mikael, waited for an intestinal transplant to help treat an autoimmune disease. Lopez also picked up his first professional hit and RBI on a single in the fifth inning that produced the game's first run. After Jaye Chapman struck out two and allowed a hit in the eighth, Damien Magnifico loaded the bases in the ninth but got Loman to bounce into a game-ending double play for his third save. The game lasted just one hour and 59 minutes, two minutes longer than the shortest nine-inning game in M-Braves history -- the team played a 1:57 contest against Birmingham on May 8, 2010.

Final: Iowa 14, Colorado Springs 2 I-Cubs Slam Sox With 16 Hits In 14-2 Rout Iowa Scores 14 Runs in First Four Innings In One-Sided Victory By Ed Pearsall / Colorado Springs Sky Sox http://www.milb.com/assets/images/5/8/8/120210588/cuts/04_10_097_pk_landhpnt_ms7350g2.jpg Luis Sardinas's seventh inning double drove in the Sky Sox first run of the ballgame. (File photo from prior game Paat Kelly) The Iowa Cubs offense was relentless early in their 14-2 beating of the Sky Sox in front of 5,138 fans at Principal Park on Sunday afternoon. Sox starter Tyler Cravy (2-4, 5.40) was tagged for five runs on five hits and three walks, notching a strikeout over two innings of work in a down performance. Chris Leroux's night would prove to be a little tougher. The right-hander would take the hill in relief of Cravy to start the home third. He would allow a total of ten hits, six of them coming in the I-Cubs' eight-run fourth. The Sky Sox bullpen would hold Iowa's offense scoreless over the final 4.1 innings as a four-man combination of Michael Kirkman, Jim Henderson, Nick Additon and Ariel Pena that allowed just one hit while striking out seven total batters. I-Cubs catcher Taylor Teagarden provided the noise in that loud fourth inning, blasting a three-run shot to left field on a 2-2 pitch from Leroux. The Sky Sox offense would break through late in the ballgame, scoring a run in the seventh and eight innings off of right-hander Michael Wagner after being held scoreless through six innings by starter Carlos Pimentel (2-2, 4.28). Colorado Springs' runs would come on a pair of RBI doubles, courtesy of Luis Sardinas in the seventh and Bryan Petersen in the eighth. Each finished with a pair of hits and an RBI on the ballgame. The I-Cubs registered 16 total hits en route to improving their record to and even .500 at 15-15. With the loss, the Sky Sox fall to 10-20 on the season. VIDEO: KCCI News report with some of Tyler Cravy's rough start Coming off a strong six inning relief performance, Taylor Jungmann (1-1, 6.91) will look to get the Sox back on track when he takes the mound against Cubs starter Dallas Beeler (0-2, 9.53) on Monday morning. First pitch is slated for 11:08 AM MDT (12:08 PM Central) at Principal Park in Iowa.

Final: Biloxi 2, Mississippi 0 Lopez does it all in win over M-Braves Jorge Lopez tossed seven one-hit innings and had RBI single Biloxi Shuckers http://www.milb.com/assets/images/6/9/4/123584694/cuts/DSC07545_0t9dmp2r_m6iic8s2.JPG Jorge Lopez notched his third win in four starts on Sunday afternoon in Pearl (Photo by John Shadrick) PEARL, MS - The Shuckers got just the start they were looking for to end a three-game losing streak Sunday afternoon out of the right arm of 22-year-old Jorge Lopez (W, 3-2). Biloxi shutout the Mississippi Braves 2-0 at Trustmark Park in Pearl. Lopez had his no-hit bid snapped in the sixth inning, but worked seven one-hit innings, earning his third win in four starts. Lopez also picked up his first career base hit and RBI with a two out single that snapped a scoreless tie in the fifth. Lopez hit the second batter he faced in the first inning, but set down the next 14 Braves to step into the batter's box before a one-out single by Eric Garcia broke up the righty's no-hit bid in the sixth. The Puerto Rican native tied a career high with eight strikeouts and did not issue a walk over his seven innings. Over his last starts, Lopez is 3-0, giving up just two runs in 23 innings. Lopez helped his own cause at the plate with a RBI single in the fifth to give Biloxi a 1-0 advantage and its first lead since game one on Wednesday. VIDEO: Biloxi's Jorge Lopez gets Mississippi's Mallex Smith swinging to begin the Shuckers' 2-0 win VIDEO: Biloxi's Jorge Lopez finishes his day with his eighth strikeout at the Shuckers face Mississippi Jaye Chapman allowed a leadoff single in the eighth to KD Kang, but a sacrifice bunt and two straight strikeouts got the reliever out of the threat. Biloxi (18-12) added an insurance run in the bottom-half of the inning on a squeeze bunt by Kyle Wren (1x4, RBI), bringing in Yadiel Rivera (sac bunt) to put the Shuckers up 2-0. Damien Magnifico came on to attempt his third save in as many opportunities and surrendered back-to-back singles to start the inning from Corban Joseph and Mallex Smith. Rio Ruiz walked to load the bases. But, the former Oklahoma Sooner induced a game-ending 6-4-3 double play to Seth Loman securing the fourth shutout of the season. The win ended a 10-game home stand for the Shuckers, in which they finished 4-6 against the Mobile BayBears and Mississippi (14-14) in Huntsville and Pearl. Orlando Arcia was 1-for-4 and extended his on-base streak to 11 games. Biloxi will head to Tennessee to start a five-game series with the Jackson Generals starting on Monday. Game one will feature reigning Milwaukee Brewers' Pitcher of the Month RHP Brooks Hall (4-0, 1.32), while the Generals will have LHP Danny Hultzen (0-0, 0.00) make his second start of the season. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 PM, with coverage beginning at 6:50 on 1240-AM WGCM, 1580-AM WPMO and the Biloxi Shuckers Radio Network.

Via Jason Arndt -- Much more on the Shuckers

Via Chris Harris -- From tonight's 10th inning, a Shuckers reliever allowed an inherited run to score for the first time this season. Pretty incredible.
