It was an up-and-down week across the Yankees‘ system. High-A Hudson Valley rode strong pitching to a series win, while Double-A Somerset retained its share of first place in the Eastern League. Even on the teams that struggled throughout their respective series, individual performers stood out among their peers, including one Player of the Week performance.
Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes Barre RailRiders
Record: 7-10; Seventh place in the International League (East), 3.5 GB
Past Week: 2-4 vs. Buffalo Bison (Blue Jays)
Coming Up: Home vs. Lehigh Valley IronPigs (Phillies)
The RailRiders hit a skid of three consecutive losses to begin their six-game set against Buffalo before a pair of wins on the weekend helped temporarily change their fortunes.
