Low-A Greenville Drive
Final Score: Lexington 8, Greenville Drive 4
Notable Pitchers:
Ben Taylor (6 IP, 4 H, R, 5 K)
* Taylor was a seventh round pick in 2015 signing out of South Alabama. Taylor, a 22-year-old right-hander, started the season at Lowell where he had 17 K’s in 10 innings while showcasing a fastball that can reach the mid-90s. In tonight’s game Taylor did not issue a walk while tossing 70 pitches good for 56 strikes.
Carlos Pinales (1 IP, 5 H, 4 R, 2 K)
Mario Alcantara (2 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 3 BB, K)
Notable Position Players:
Michael Chavis (3-4, R, 3 RBI, HR)
Joseph Monge (1-2, R, RBI)
Rafael Devers (0-4)
Nick Longhi (0-4)
* Entering the game Moncada was batting .330 for July. The rust is wearing off so expect some movement in the system with a possible bypass of Salem and joining Portland.
