MINOR LEAGUE CLIPS Wings rally to beat Bisons 4-3 Rochester Red Wings– 8/17/15

Jose Martinez hit a home run in the sixth inning, helping the Rochester Red Wings to a 4-3 comeback win over the Buffalo Bisons Monday night at Frontier Field. The victory moved the Wings into a second place tie with the Bisons.

Tuesday featured a pitching rematch from August 12 in Buffalo, when Randy Wolf beat the Wings and Taylor Rogers getting the loss in a 6-5 Bisons victory.

Rogers allowing just a single over the first two innings, and in the bottom of the second the Wings took the lead. With two outs, Xavier Avery connected for a solo home run - his fifth homer in 21 games since joining the Red Wings.

Buffalo battled back in the top of the third with a lead-off single by Jonathon Diaz. After a throwing error and sacrifice bunt that put Bison runners on second and third with one out, Johnathon Berti pushed across Diaz with a ground out RBI to tie the score at 1-1. Rogers escaped further damage with an inning ending fly out.

The Wings' lefty continued to struggle in the top of the fourth. Buffalo hit back-to-back-to-back singles to load the bases with no outs. Rogers followed with a walk to Josh Thole that surrendered the lead, 2-1 Bisons. Buffalo tacked on another run via sacrifice fly that propelled the lead to 3-1. Rogers ended the rally with a ground out and swinging strikeout.

With two outs in the bottom of the fifth, Red Wing bats responded against the Buffalo ace. Eric Farris collected a base hit and James Beresford smacked a double to put runners at second and third. Reynaldo Rodriguez cleared the bases with a two-RBI base hit to tie the score at 3-3.

The offense continued in the bottom of the sixth for the Wings. After a lead-off fly out, Martinez crushed his fourth home run of the season to give Rochester a 4-3 lead. It was Martinez's first homer since July 5th at Lehigh Valley.

Rogers' night ended after 6 2/3 innings. He allowed 10 hits, three runs, two earned runs, one walk, three strikeouts. Rogers (9-10) threw 96 pitches, 65 for strikes. Cole Johnson entered the game to take over for the Wings' lefty, and caught Andy Burns looking at strike three.

Johnson got the first out of the eighth inning, then was relieved by Aaron Thompson. The Bisons picked up a single, but Thompson got a pair of flyball outs - one on a fine play by Martinez, reaching over the railing of the Bisons dugout to make a snag - to keep the 4-3 lead.

Wolf (9-2) was relieved by Aaron Lute after seven innings on the mound. Wolf allowed seven hits and four earned runs, striking out seven. He threw 101 pitches, 71 for strikes; the two homers allowed by Wolf Tuesday matched the total he had allowed all season so far. Wolf had not allowed a homer since June 23.

Michael Tonkin worked the ninth inning for the Red Wings. Facing the top of the order, Tonkin struck out two to set down the side and earn his 13th save.

Buxton sits out Monday Wings game but may play Tuesday Rochester Democrat & Chronicle– 8/17/15

Baseball players never miss an opportunity to play a joke on a teammate. Ever.

Thus, on the center field wall at Frontier Field during batting practice on Monday afternoon was a lifelike mural, a "scene of the crime" re-enactment of sorts.

There was a baseball stuffed between two of the pads, meant to represent the drive hit by Kyle Roller that Byron Buxton was chasing on Sunday afternoon.

There also was Buxton's jersey, a Wings hat, his baseball pants, and his spikes, taped to the wall in roughly the same position with which the right side of his body made contact.

A matter of great concern when the collision occurred in the second inning on Sunday, the man-meets-wall misadventure was the subject of the practical jokers amongst the Rochester Red Wings.

Buxton did sit out Monday's game with what would best be described as general body soreness.

His absence was pretty much expected, since he had an ice packed wrapped tightly to his right side following Sunday's 3-2 walk-off win over the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders.

He banged into the center field wall while in pursuit of a fly ball in the second inning on Sunday. He did stay in the game -- homering in the fifth and providing the walk-off single in the 12th -- but said afterward that he was feeling it.

General body soreness was perhaps the best diagnosis the Red Wings could have hoped for, too, considering how hard he hit the wall.

A former high school football player, Buxton compared it to a hit from a linebacker, "without no pads."

But Wings manager Mike Quade expects to have his speedy center fielder back very soon, perhaps as early as Tuesday night.

"I'll bet he's not sore tomorrow," Quade said.

‘Streaky’ Walker inching closer to Chattanooga Lookouts homer mark Chattanooga Times Free Press– 8/17/15

Adam Walker breaking the Chattanooga Lookouts record for home runs in a season would seem a mere formality, but that's not how power hitters tend to function.

Walker hit his 27th homer Friday night against the Tennessee Smokies, pulling him within one of the 28 that Tim Castro launched in 1992 and Scott Schebler matched last season. Yet that was Walker's first homer since July 22, easily his longest drought of the season.

"It's been a little bit of a dry time for me, but I'm still just trying to have quality at-bats and help this team win," Walker said Sunday as the Lookouts closed a 10-game homestand with an 11-4 win over the Smokies. "I've started to feel a little better lately, and I'm just trying to finish strong."

Walker and the Lookouts were off Monday and open a five-game series tonight in Pensacola.

The 6-foot-4, 235-pounder from Milwaukee is a certainty to win the Southern League home-run title, with Jacksonville's Matt Juengel currently a distant second with 16. Walker built his commanding lead by collecting six homers in a 12-day stretch in late June.

"He's been up and down, but that's Adam," Lookouts manager Doug Mientkiewicz said. "He is as streaky as they come. He wants to play every day, which is a good thing, and he understands the importance of being in the lineup. You can't argue with the 27 homers and the 90-something RBIs, so we'll keep doing what we're doing."

Walker has 93 RBIs with 20 games left in the regular season, with Tennessee's Wilson Contreras next in the league with 65.

After batting .270 in the first half of the season, Walker is hitting just .245 now. Eight of his homers have occurred in the second half, including four since the start of July.

"Home-run hitters are streaky," Mientkiewicz said. "Even when they hit 40, they're streaky. Adam's fall in the second half had a little something to do with the lineup around him. We lost a lot of depth at the beginning of the second half."

If Walker can hit two more between now and Labor Day, he would hold the record for the Lookouts since their return to the city in 1976.

"That would definitely be awesome," he said. "Like I said, I'm just trying to help the team win, but it would definitely be cool to have my name in there."

Southern notes: Polanco seeks permanence MiLB.com– 8/17/15

San Pedro de Macoris in the Dominican Republic has long been known for the shortstops it produces, but the Major Leaguer from his hometown that Jorge Polanco idolized growing up was Robinson Cano.

Until last season, it appeared Polanco would end up a second baseman like Cano, but then the Minnesota Twins reversed course.

With Brian Dozier established at second, the Twins' future need was on the other side of the bag, and the team felt Polanco might be the one eventually to fill it long-term. Polanco, ranked as the No. 5 prospect in the Minnesota system, was eager to make the switch back.

"I always liked playing shortstop best -- that's what I want to be," he said. "I'm working hard to stay at shortstop. But if I can play both positions, that's good, too."

The 22-year-old Chattanooga switch-hitter has already made it to Minnesota for three brief stays, and he wants to be ready for a more permanent one. That means getting his defense up to par with his offense.

"I'm working hard every day," he said. "I want to get back."

Polanco made the jump to the Majors all the way from the Class A Advance Florida State League a year ago and had two extra-base hits, three RBIs and two walks in five games. This season, he was 3-for-10 with two more walks and an RBI in four games during two fill-in trips.

The promotions were emergency situations, but Polanco certainly handled things at the plate by posting a .313 average and .450 on-base percentage. He also committed two errors, however, and the Twins aren't fully convinced that he can be an everyday shortstop.

"I'm not sure that debate is totally over," Minnesota manager Paul Molitor said while Polanco was up with the Twins. "I think a lot of people have bought into the fact that what he's done in terms of improving both footwork and arm strength, and believe he has a chance to stick at that spot. I don't think that's unanimous, but I think it's a greater percentage than it used to be.

Polanco has made 19 errors in 74 games with Double-A Chattanooga and eight more during a 19-game stint with Triple-A Rochester.

"This is just his second full season at shortstop and we've had some speed bumps," said Lookouts manager Doug Mientkiewicz, who also had Polanco a year ago at Fort Myers. "He's made a lot of careless mental errors, but they don't really have anything to do with him not being able to play the position. He's making the more athletic plays and starting to get a feel for what it means to be a shortstop."

There is much less to work on offensively.

Polanco has a .294 average with 22 extra-base hits, 35 RBIs and 15 stolen bases in 77 games for Chattanooga. He has also walked 28 times for a .350 on-base percentage.

"He's definitely one of the better hitters in the entire organization," Mientkiewicz said. "He can hit with anybody."

Polanco, ranked No. 87 among MLB.com's Top 100 Prospects, reinforced that by hitting .284 in 22 games with Rochester but was sent back to Chattanooga so that he and Danny Santana wouldn't have to share the position with the Red Wings.

"I don't think people realize fully how mentally tough he is," Mientkiewicz said of Polanco. "He's been bounced around the last couple of years and handled it very well.

"He's a really good kid and a great teammate. He learns fast and I think there are some big things ahead for him."

Kepler back on top: Chattanooga outfielder Max Kepler went into the Lookouts' home series Aug. 12-16 against Tennessee trailing Smokies catcher Willson Contreras in the Southern League batting race. The native of Germany was back on top, though, after going 8-for-16 to raise his average to .335. Contreras fell to .331 after going 3-for-19 in the series. Kepler, the Minnesota Twins' No. 7 prospect, also leads the league in on-base percentage (.417), slugging (.568) and OPS (.985). The 22-year-old homered and drove in five runs during the Tennessee series.
