It's the last series before the mid-summer break. The Athletics will want to give a better account of themselves this time around, which is enough to make me edgy.
Kendry Rojas had ten strikeouts but it wasn't enough for a win for New Hampshire. Cutter Coffey put the C's on his back to get the win. Fernando Perez also pitched well. Buffalo's pitching wasn't good and they lost. Dunedin also were put in a hole they couldn't get out of. The FCL Jays split a pair.

C’s are the lone winner for the affiliates.
The full-season clubs only managed four runs between them as the affiliates went 0-7 on Tuesday.
Six games on the road, and I'm gonna make it home....oh, never mind
Eddie Micheletti Jr tied the Vancouver game with a home run and two innings later hit a go ahead home run leading the C's to the win. The super hot Charles McAdoo homered again as he and Peyton Williams helped the Fisher Cats win. A couple of hot prospects have hit a speed bump as they move up the ladder. Both Trey Yesavage and Johnny King did not have good games.
Khal Stephen dominated as the C's shutout Everett. Buffalo and New Hampshire each hit three home runs, for NH it led to a win, for Buffalo a loss. Dunedin were rained out again.
Buffalo and Vancouver both scored nine runs, the FCL Jays scored ten. Lots of their hitters had lots of hits and between them had three wins. New Hampshire and Dunedin's bats were cold and both lost.

So as we head into trading season the question that comes up is what did the Jays do in other years when they contended? What did they give up, what did they get back? Did it work?
It was a light night on the farm as the Florida weather kicked in to limit the North American games to three. Buffalo were blown out while New Hampshire and Vancouver won. Peyton Williams and Jay Harry had the big go-ahead hits.
Lakeland 2 Dunedin 0
New Hampshire 4 Portland 1
Vancouver 7 Everett 3
Buffalo 5 Rochester 3
Dunedin were the only losers on Wednesday.
It's the Yankees, it's a four game series, we're going to hit 200 comments any second now. I occasionally check in on my phone and scrolling down to the bottom is a chore.
Buffalo was the only full-season team to find the win column on Tuesday.
Irv Carter supplied shutout relief for Vancouver on Canada Day.
Parker, it was agreed later, had crushed the pitch, hitting the ball exactly in its middle with the middle of his bat, so that it flew toward Dauer without any spin - a knuckleball, in short, which took a sudden and characteristic knuckleball veer at the last instant and skipped free. Tim Foli, running toward second, was the nearest witness, and he said later, "I could see the seams of the ball, so I knew what had happened. It was so strange to see a ball hit that way, and hit so hard, that I yelled 'Look out!' as it went by me. Dauer never had a chance."
