What’s better than a 12 strikeout performance from one of the Hooks starters? Back to back 12 strikeout performances by a pair of Hooks hurlers, Francis Martes and Evan Grills, who led the Hooks pitching staff this week. They both dominated their starts against the San Antonio Missions early in the week. Corpus Christi pitchers combined to strike out X and walk X.
The major league club added pitching depth last week, calling up James Hoyt and Joseph Musgrove from the Fresno Grizzlies. Those moves, plus the Josh Fields trade to the Dodgers left several rosters in holes in AAA that were filled by Corpus Christi Hooks pitchers Keegan Yuhl, Aaron West, Albert Minnis, and Brian Holmes.
