Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: May 14
Christopher MorelYet another 3 out of 4 day in the minors. I could get used to this.
The Iowa Cubs were blanked by the Omaha Storm Chasers (Royals), 2-0. The loss snapped Iowa’s five-game winning streak.
Cam Sanders was great in his Triple-A debut, but great wasn’t good enough as he took the loss. Sanders allowed just one run on two hits over 5.2 innings. He struck out nine and walked four. He threw 86 pitches and 55 were strikes.
Dakota Mekkes allowed just one hit and no runs over 1.1 innings of his season debut.
Right fielder Greg Deichmann went 3 for 3. The rest of the I-Cubs lineup was 1 for 27. Andrelton Simmons played the entire game at shortstop in a rehab assignment and was 0 for 4.
