Twins Minor League Report (7/13): FCL Runs the Show

TRANSACTIONS

• No transactions took place in the system. A couple more draft signings have rolled in, and the report day for many of them down in Fort Myers is Sunday.

COMPLEX CHRONICLES
FCL Orioles 4, FCL Twins 1
Box Score

As the lone game on the farm today, the spotlight was all on the FCL Twins. Jacob Wosinski made the start and worked 1 1/3 innings. He gave up two runs on three hits while striking out two. He did avoid any walks.

The Orioles got on board with two runs in the second inning, then plated another pair in the third. They attempted to mount a comeback, but a fifth-inning run was all they could push across.

Yasser Mercedes reached on a fielder's choice to second base, and Byron Chourio scored on the play. Mercedes drove in the day's lone run and drew a walk.

The Twins tallied just four hits in this one, but Chourio and Bryan Acuna also drew walks. Each of the four base hits were singles. Carlos Gutierrez was outstanding in relief, working three perfect innings and striking out three.

DOMINICAN DAILY

An already slow day on the farm got slower when the Twins DSL, set to play the DSL Reds this morning, had their contest postponed due to rain.
