• LHP Jacob Lindgren: 1 IP, 0 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 4 BB, 3 WP, 1/1 GB/FB — only 13 of 34 pitches were strikes (38%) … this is Bad Jacob

Low-A Charleston (3-1 win over Augusta)

• CF Jeff Hendrix: 1-5, 3 K, 1 SB
• DH Hoy Jun Park: 2-4, 2 R, 2 3B, 1 BB, 1 K — two-triple games are always fun

• RF Jhalan Jackson: 0-2, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 HBP
• SS Kyle Holder: 0-4, 2 K, 1 SB, 3 E (two throwing, one fielding) — three errors by the defensive whiz? I guess you really can’t predict baseball
