Some Olympic qualifying updates as it pertains to current Brewer farmhands --

 

Venezuela enjoyed this Tuesday walk-off win (box score) over Colombia. Hernan Perez, Alexander Palma, and Luis Castro reached a combined four times.

 

Also on Tuesday, the U.S. defeated the Dominican Republic, 8-6 (box score). Nashville's Logan Forsythe was 1-for-2 and drove in a run.

 

***

 

On Wednesday, Venezuela shutout Canada, 5-0 (box score). 23-year-old Timber Rattlers RHP Harold Chirinos, threw sweet 7th and 8th inning for the victors. Perez and Palma combined for 0-for-7 (Perez base on balls).

 

The Puerto Rico and USA game was rained out, including their attempt to reschedule today.

Both Venezuela and the US advance to the "Super Round" which begins Friday, and they face each other Saturday.

 

Look at the left-hand sidebar here for the scheduled matchups.

The top of that T Rats lineup is sure something.

Nice seeing some speed in the minors.

Congrats to the Sounds for making it 15 straight wins! Quite an accomplishment with the roster churn due to the Brewers injury/ineffectiveness early on.

The top of that T Rats lineup is sure something.

 

Ward's been really good as of late. I thought one of him, Howell and Abreu were going to break out two years ago. It looks like two of them might be doing it this year. Between Ward, Howell and Mitchell at Wisconsin and Gray down at Carolina, some of those toolsy outfield prospects are really hitting lately.

[Outlander]

Nice to see Chad Sobotka finally playing for the Sounds. Good start by Lindblom with no walks.

Box: Nashville 15, Charlotte (White Sox) 4

Incredible, the walks, the runs, the wins!

 

The eight position players in the box score (non-catchers) are the only ones who are healthy (non day-to-day).

 

If Kolten Wong has to hit the IL, Brewers may find a way to get Jace Peterson back on the 40-man and 26-man rosters.

 

RHP Thomas Jankins, who last pitched on 5/21, tossed an inning here. Manager Rick Sweet had mentioned that he would be back soon, but didn't indicate what the issue was there.

Box: Montgomery (Rays) 9, Biloxi 6

 

Six-Run Second Too Much For Shuckers Against Biscuits

Tristen Lutz, hitless in his last 19 at-bats, got the night off.

 

Good to see Tyler Friis back at second base; he exited last Saturday's game after an awkward first base collision.

 

Boy, it's been rough for southpaw's Leo Crawford and Cody Beckman.

Box: Wisconsin 8, Peoria (Cardinals) 7
