Twins Minor League Report (6/20): Sweep!

RED WINGS REPORT

Rochester 8, Columbus 2

Box Score

The Red Wings jumped out to a quick start - thanks primarily to drawing three walks in the first four plate appearances - and never looked back. Eddie Rosario, the first Red Wing to get a hit, drove in two runs. Later in the inning, Buck Britton hit a three-run home run. And before Columbus even came to bat, it was 5-0 Red Wings.

A second-inning Jorge Polanco double drove in James Beresford to extend the lead to six.

Columbus got a run back with a second-inning home run.

Rochester got the run back in the top of the third when Eddie Rosario doubled and later scored on a Tommy Field single.

Andrew Albers gave up another run in the sixth and lasted seven innings in all. He gave up two runs on five hits and a walk. He struck out six and improved his record to 6-1.

Buck Britton drove in another run in the 8th inning to give the Red Wings an 8-2 lead. Britton’s two hits drove in four runs. Eddie Rosario drove in two runs on two hits and also stole his fifth base.

Marcus Walden struck out one and allowed one hit in two innings.

The Red Wings improve to 43-28.

MIRACLE MATTERS

Fort Myers 7, Charlotte 2

Box Score

After spotting Charlotte two runs in the first inning, the Miracle scored the last seven runs of the game to pull away for the win.

Randy Rosario struggled in the first, giving up four hits and two runs, but he settled in nicely after that. A 1-2-3 second was followed by two more hits in the third, but he only walked one batter in his final three innings. In all, Rosario struck out five batters and recorded 11 outs via ground ball, compared to no flyball outs. He improved to 3-5.

Fort Myers got on the board in the third inning with a Brian Navarreto two-run home run, his second of the year. They tacked on two more in the fourth inning on a Trey Vavra two-run home run.

Navarreto drove in Vavra in the seventh inning to push the lead to 5-2. Vavra drove in two more runs in the eighth inning.

Vavra’s three hits produced four runs and he scored twice. Max Murphy doubled in a two-hit game in his return from the disabled list. Edgar Corcino and Navarreto also had two-hit games.

Luke Bard struck out three in two innings and Nick Anderson struck out the side - all swinging - in a perfect ninth inning.
