Diamondbacks Minor League Recap 8/6/16: Bad baseball is contagious

As bad as the major league team played, the disease spread throughout most of their minor league affiliates. Only the Kane County Cougars won tonight out of 6 possible games. The Cougars were on the verge of losing in their game, but used a 5-run 9th to take victory from the jaws of defeat and not put the entire organization in the donut hole.
