Outfielder Jesus Sanchez, infielders Lucius Fox, Nathaniel Lowe, and Robbie Tenerowicz, pitcher Willy Ortiz, and catcher David Rodriguez were all named 2017 Florida State League All-Stars Friday. Rodriguez will likely not participate as he was recently promoted to Montgomery. The game will be played in Tampa on Saturday, June 16.
In Durham, something interesting happened Friday:
Triple-A Durham Bulls (30-23)
Durham got a good effort from its pitching staff in a 3-1 win over Pawtucket. After Adam Kolarek struck out the side in the first, he was replaced by Ryan Weber, who pitched six scoreless innings.
