Future Redbirds

Be sure to read erik’s review of the Cardinals draft. I think he’s spot on in his review.
Memphis 8, Alberquerque 11

• Disgusting loss. Anthony Reyes throws 7 innings allowing 7 hits and striking out 6 against 2 walks for 2 measly earned runs. Brian Falkenborg and Hugo Castellanos proceeded to blow it. Poor Reyes, he’s really getting the short end of the proverbial stick. Falkenborg couldn’t even get an out in the 9th. Just sad.
• Rick Ankiel went 2-for-4 with a double and a homer.
• John Nelson went 1-for-3 with a HR and a walk.
• Nick Stavinoha showed off his arm with two outfield assists.

Springfield 10, Tulsa 3

• Joe Mather went 0-for-2 but drew 2 walks.
• Jared Hoffpauir went 4-for-5 with a double.
• Tyler Greene went 1-for-2 hitting a HR plus a BB.
• Juan Richardson went 1-for-3 with a double and 2 walks.
• Jaime Garcia had a solid outing. 6.1 IP striking out 6 against 2 walks. Only allowing 3 runs Garcia put up a quality start for Springfield.
• Michael Cooper struck out 1 in a scoreless 1.2 innings.
• Jason Motte struck out 1 in his scoreless inning.

Palm Beach 1, Tampa 9

• Golden Sombrero for AJ Van Slyke.
• Gary Daley imploded. In 1.1 IP he allowed 5 hits and walked 5 striking out 0. All said he got lit up for 6 earned runs.
• Luke Gregerson pitched a scoreless inning striking out 1.
• Brandon Yarbrough went 2-for-4.

Quad Cities 3, Cedar Rapids 7

• Daryl Jones went 2-for-4.
• Christian Reyes went deep in a 1-for-4 effort.
• Shaun Garceau, who’d been lights out recently, scuffled tonight with 5 runs (4 earned) in 5 IP. He struck out 5 and walked just 1 but Cedar Rapids had 9 hits including 2 HR.
• Eddie Degerman came in to relieve Garceau for 3 innings. 4 Ks, no walks and 2 hits including a HR equating to 2 earned runs.
