Minor league update for 6/27/21

Mason Englert started for Down East today, and he continued the quality work he has been doing...well, pretty much all season. Six innings, one hit — a home run — allowed, one run, three walks, six Ks. He now has a 3.13 ERA in seven games.

Luisangel Acuna was 3 for 4 with a double and a steal. Dustin Harris had two hits and two steals. Jayce Easley had a single and a double. Cody Freeman had two walks. Keyber Rodriguez had a hit and a steal. Alberto Osuna didn’t have any hits or walks but did steal two bases.

A.J. Alexy was supposed to start for Frisco, though like his last time out, another starter — this time Hans Crouse — pitched the first before Alexy came in. Crouse allowed two runs in an inning of work due to a single and a home run. He struck out one batter. Alexy allowed a run on four hits, including a home run, with three walks and two Ks in 4.2 IP.

Rehabbing David Dahl had two hits, Steele Walker had two doubles, Josh Stowers had two walks, and Bubba Thompson homered.

Brock Burke started for Round Rock. He allowed two runs in 3.2 IP, striking out six and walking one. The game is currently delayed due to rain in the top of the fifth, and I’m not staying up to see if it resumes tonight.

Leody Taveras has a homer and a walk. Curtis Terry has a double. Jax Biggers was promoted to AAA today and is starting at 2B.
