Atlanta Braves Minor League Recap 5/10: Sims and Parsons steal the spotlight

Lucas Sims gave up one extra-base hit - it was a solo homerun by Patrick Leonard in the seventh inning with two outs. That was really the only significant hit given up by Lucas Sims as the righty kept Charlotte off balanced all night in this fantastic game. Whenever runners got on base he almost immediately retaliated by inducing a ground ball, or inducing soft contact to get out of the inning unscathed. Lucas also had a pair of pickoffs that certainly helped him prevent any damage being done. Lucas lowered his ERA down to 1.42 and has a 10.
