Chris Archer was pretty good for the Tampa Bay Rays yesterday, but he could only manage a 1-hitter. It was quite fitting that there was a no-hit bid happening elsewhere in the system, with Spencer Moran leading the way.
Triple-A International League: Durham Bulls 9, Toledo Mud Hens (DET) 1
This wasn’t quite a 17-run outburst like Wednesday (just wait until the Montgomery game), but the Bulls managed to roll once again. J.P. Arencibia went 2 for 5 with a homer and 4 RBI, Mikie Mahtook went 4 for 5 with a double, a stolen base, 2 RBI, and 3 runs scored, and both Taylor Motter and Ryan Brett went 3 for 4 with a double.
