Ryan WilliamsCongratulations to Keegan Thompson, who was named Carolina League Pitcher of the Week for the second time this season. Thompson pitched seven perfect innings for the Pelicans in a start on June 14.
The Iowa Cubs dropped their fifth-straight game, 5-2 to the Tacoma Rainiers (Mariners).
Kyle Ryan started and pitched well, allowing just one baserunner over three innings and that was a two-out infield single in the third. Ryan struck out two.
Daury Torrez pitched the other five innings and didn’t pitch as well. He got the loss after he gave up five runs on five hits, including a three-run home run in the sixth inning. Torrez walked two and struck out three.
