Colorado Rockies eighth-ranked prospect (MLB.com), and once the No. 36 prospect in all of baseball (Baseball Prospectus), Ryan McMahon is off to a very fast start in Double-A Hartford. Last night he made history for the Yard Goats as they christened their new park, Dunkin’ Donuts Park, over the weekend. In the fourth game of play at their new yard McMahon set a Goats franchise record with six RBI.
Not only did McMahon knock in six, he was five-for-seven in a wild 13 inning affair against the Harrisburg Senators. The 22-year-old also had the most clutch hit in the contest, a three-run ninth inning home run with two outs to tie the game at twelves.
