Chris Ellis struggled for Gwinnett again while Dansby Swanson came up big for Mississippi.
The TC minor league crew did a great job on all those midseason prospect rankings, right? Such a great job, in fact, that they deserve a day off from minor league coverage, so you're stuck with me, the man who has never watched a minor league game. I apologize in advance... for nothing. -Ivan
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders 9, Gwinnett Braves 3
- Chris Ellis - 3 and 1/3 IP, 8 R (8 ER), 6 H, 5 BB, 2 K
- Mel Rojas, Jr (RF) - 2-for-4, HR, 2 R, 1 RBI, 1 K
On a night where the Gwinnett offense was dealing with well-heeled Yankees farmhand Luis Severino (who struggled in his majors debut earlier this season), Chris Ellis unraveled to deliver an easy win to the RailRiders.
