Phillies Minor League Roundup, August 2, 2012

Lehigh Valley 2, Pawtucket 1

Tyler Cloyd 7.0 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, 1 HR, 11 GB, 4 LD, 6 FB (2 pop)
Justin De Fratus 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K
Cesar Hernandez 1 for 3, CS, SH (AAA debut)
Sebastian Valle 1 for 4, K (AAA debut)

Cloyd's strikeout rates have generally been low for a couple of months now, but his ERA has yet to suffer as a result. He did do a pretty good job keeping the ball on the ground last night. Valle knocked in both Pigs runs with a sixth-inning single.

Richmond 2, Reading 0

Trevor May 7.0 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 5 K, 1 HR, 1 SH, 8 GB, 5 LD, 5 FB
Tyler Knigge 1.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K
Cody Asche 0 for 3, BB, 2 K
Darin Ruf 0 for 4, 2 K
Tommy Joseph 1 for 2, 2B, BB, K, CS
Leandro Castro 1 for 3, K
Jiwan James 0 for 3, 2 K

May's best start in some time, despite the loss. Good sign. Hopefully he's getting his sea legs back. Unfortunately, the offense was shut down by Giants pitching prospect Michael Kickham, who struck out 12 in 8.1 innings.

Clearwater 5, St. Lucie 2

Austin Wright 5.1 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, 0 HR, 1 SH, 9 GB, 5 LD, 5 FB

Colton Murray 1.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K

Anthony Hewitt 2 for 3, BB, PO/CS
Cameron Rupp 0 for 4, K, threw out 0 of 1
Harold Martinez 0 for 2, BB
Edgar Duran 1 for 3, 2B, K, error

Journeyman Jim Murphy won it with a three-run homer in the bottom of the 8th.

Lakewood 10, Delmarva 0

Hoby Milner (7th round) 7.0 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 7 K, 9 GB, 1 LD, 7 FB (1 pop)

Brian Pointer 1 for 4, BB, K
William Carmona (11th round) 1 for 5, K
Josh Ludy (8th round) 2 for 3, 2 BB, K

Outstanding effort from Milner: his best game as a pro.

Short season team stats after the jump...

Williamsport 6, Aberdeen 5 (10)

Kevin Brady (10th round) GS, 4.0 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K, 2 HBP, 4 GB, 1 LD, 6 FB (1 pop)
Ramon Oviedo 1.1 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 BB, 0 K, 0 HR
Jeb Stefan (22nd round) 2.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K
Roman Quinn 2 for 5, 3B, BB, K, SB, error
Mitch Walding 1 for 4, 2 BB (1 IBB), 2 K
Cameron Perkins (6th round) 1 for 3, K
Chace Numata 2 for 2, IBB
Christopher Serritella (4th round) 1 for 5, BB, 2 K
Fudgie Greene 0 for 6, K
Zach Taylor (12th round) 0 for 4, 2 BB
Logan Moore 2 for 4, BB, K, threw out 0 of 3
Tyler Greene 0 for 4, BB

Great win for Williamsport. After Oviedo coughed up a 3-1 lead in the 7th and 8th, the Crosscutters re-tied it in the bottom of the 8th with RBI singles from Walding and Numata. In the 10th, Quinn led off with an infield single and immediately moved to third on a stolen base/throwing error. After two IBBs, Serritella struck out and Fudgie grounded into a force at home, but Zach Taylor worked a two-out walkoff walk to win it.
