Low-A: St. Lucie Mets (11-6)

St. Lucie 5, Daytona 2 (BOX)

Ah finally, a win! The pitching was the star in this, with Nick Zwack and Keyshawn Askew combining for 15 strikeouts in a shutout performance. The latter is something of a prospect of note at this point I’d argue, as he now has an impressive 11.45 K/9 and 1.64 ERA on the season. On the offensive side, Shervyen Newton and Carlos Dominguez both went deep, while Alex Ramirez tallied a single hit in four plate appearances.

• CF Alex Ramirez: 1-4, RBI
• LF Stanley Consuegra: 0-3, R, BB, K
• SS Shervyen Newton: 1-3, R, HR (1), 2 RBI, BB, K, E (6)
• 3B William Lugo: 2-4, R, 2B, K, E (2)
• DH Carlos Dominguez: 1-4, R, HR (4), RBI, 2 K
• 1B Raul Beracierta: 1-4, RBI
• RF Omar De Los Santos: 1-4, R, 2B, K, SB
• C Drake Osborn: 0-3
• 2B Jose Rivera: 0-0, BB
• 2B Gregory Guerrero: 0-0
• LHP Nick Zwack: 4.0 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 9 K
• LHP Keyshawn Askew: 5.0 IP, 0 H, 2 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 6 K, W (1-0)
