Rough Triple-A debut for Phil Coke last night in Scranton's 4-0 loss to the Norfolk Tides. Coke got tagged for 3 runs and 8 hits in 3 innings pitched. Dave Robertson (1.1 IP) and J.B. Cox (1 IP) each had scoreless appearances. The Yankees managed just 3 hits in the game.
The Trenton Thunder dropped a 5-3 game to the Connecticut Defenders when Steven Jackson surrendered a 7th inning, 2-run home run to Travis Ishikawa. Eric Hacker started for the Thunder, allowing 3 runs in 5 innings. Ramiro Pena had a pair of RBI for Trenton, while Jose Tabata had to leave the game after being hit by a pitch.
Grant Duff had a no-hitter going and the Tampa Yankees lead the Clearwater Threshers 1-0 when the game entered the 5th inning. Talk about the wheels coming off. Duff and 3 relievers got hammered from that point on and the Yankees fell 12-5. Kevin Whelan had his worst outing of the year, walking 5 batters in 1.1 innings. The top 3 batters in the Yankees lineup, Edwin Nunez, Mitch Hilligoss, and Jose Gil, had 5 of the team's 9 hits and drove in 4 of the 5 runs.
The Charleston RiverDogs prevented the chain from not having a win at either the major or minor league levels. Noel Castillo pitched 2-hit ball for 6 innings in the RiverDogs 3-0 win over the Rome Braves. Gabe Medina and Jon Ortiz finished the shutout, with Ortiz picking up his 17th save. Brad Suttle hit his 2nd home run of the season.
