Astros Minor Leagues: Nick Tanielu Leads Quad Cities in Hitting

Astros Class-A Report: Quad Cities River Bandits (July 18-24)

Astros minor leaguer Nick Tanielu continues to lead the River Bandits with his solid hitting as the team works its way through the second half of the Midwest League season. The Bandits were 4-3 this week. Although the team is hitting well and getting good pitching, they remain in third place in the Western Division, six games behind Kane County, and two games behind second place Peoria.

Tanielu, 22, was a 2014, 14th round draft pick by the Astros out of Washington State University.
