Top pitching prospect Darwinzon Hernandez set career highs in both innings pitched and strikeouts with only a shaky second inning serving to blight an otherwise stellar outing. Hernandez went seven innings for the first time as a professional, striking out 11 and walking only two. He have up four runs (three earned), all in the second. Most importantly, the left-hander was efficiently pounding the strike zone, needing only 102 pitches to get through those seven frames, and throwing 72 of them for strikes.
Jarren Duran when 3 for 5 and is hitting .413. He needs to be called up at the end of the month.
No taters for the second day in a row.
