Minors: Olivares impressing in Amarillo; Tri-City quartet tosses no-no; Allen homers twice

Edward Olivares was the chief return when fan favorite Yangervis Solarte was sent to Toronto in January 2018. The 23-year-old Olivares has not disappointed since.

On Saturday, Olivares filled up the box score in Double-A Amarillo’s 8-6 win at home over Corpus Christi, homering for the 11th time and driving in three runs on four hits.

A finished a triple shy of the cycle in an effort that lifted his OPS to .820. He also swiped his 21st base, tying the career mark he set last year as an all-star at high Single-A Lake Elsinore.
