Welcome back for another installment of our Midshipman’s Log, keeping you up-to-date on everything that’s happening in the minors. It was an uneven week for the affiliates, with a losing record for all the teams despite some strong offensive performances and a couple pitching gems.
Modesto Nuts
Modesto Nuts (3-6) sunk by Stockton Ports (4-5)
After getting off to a strong start in the first two games, the Nuts got trounced by the Ports down the back of this series. Nuts starting pitching got lit up by the Ports batters: Michael Morales, who had a very strong debut, struggled in his second outing, giving up five runs over four innings, with a little loss of the advanced command he’d showed in his previous outing.
