Organizational Sweep!

ORGANIZATIONAL SWEEP!!!! BROOMS OUT!!!!!!

Corpus, Lancaster, and Quad Cities had very similar games. Big hits lead the team and were anchored by great pitching performances. But, Fresno's game was just odd.

Pair of Triples Help with 8-4 Win

It took six pitchers to get through nine innings. Yet, they only allowed four runs. Usually that many pitchers correlates with a higher run total. On the flip side, a triple is a relatively rare hit. Two in one game as the only extra base hits for Fresno is unusual. Can't predict baseball.
