Travis Snider provided the only remotely positive news on the minor league front, as the affiliates went 0-2.

West Michigan 6 @ Lansing 2

The Whitecaps submerged the Lugnuts with 4 homers in the opening game of their Midwest League playoff series.  Julio Pinto started for the Luggies and was touched for 2 of the homers, but otherwise pitched well and left trailing 3-2 after 6 innings.  Pinto walked one and struck out 6.  Po-Hsuan Keng and Edward Estanga struggled in relief.  Travis Snider hit a solo homer in the first inning and later singled.

Auburn 0 @ Jamestown 2

The Doubledays could manage only 3 hits and struck out 16 times, as they fell to the Jammers.  Alan Farina started and did throw 3.2 innings, allowing 1 run on 3 hits and a walk with 4 punchouts, but that was the extent of the good news.
