Minor League Recap - 4/29

Kei Igawa pitched like the Kei Igawa we all know and hate in last night's Scranton loss to Buffalo, 5-2. Igawa was charged with 4 runs and 7 hits in 5 innings. Cody Ransom homered and Bernie Castro had 3 hits for the Yankees. Steven Jackson made his Triple-A debut, after 7 appearances for Trenton, and threw 1 scoreless inning.

The Thunder had the night off and will start a series against Connecticut this evening.

Ivan Nova pitched decently for the Tampa Yankees, but the offense couldn't get anything going in a 3-1 loss to the Clearwater Threshers. Edwar Gonzalez had 3 of the Yankees, who have lost 2 straight, 9 hits. Mark Melancon threw 2 scoreless innings and has allowed just 1 earned run in his last 11.1 innings pitched.

The Charleston River Dogs and their league best 19-5 record had the night off. They'll start a series at home tonight against the August Green Jackets.
