Mets Daily Prospect Report, 8/26/18: McGowan blanks River Cats, Brooklyn hanging onto wild card spot

*All results from games played on Saturday, August 25th, 2018.

Triple-A: Las Vegas 51s (64-67)

LAS VEGAS 6, SACRAMENTO 0 (BOX)

Jose Lobaton hit a three-run home run in the first inning and the 51s never looked back from there, as Kevin McGowan blanked the last-place Sacramento River Cats for seven terrific innings. McGowan, who has shown flashes of effectiveness since he was moved into a starting role, conceded just three hits and fanned five batters; the Franklin Pierce product now has a 3.86 ERA with Vegas on the season.
