The Colorado Rockies’ farm system had a great week, collectively. The Albuquerque Isotopes were the only affiliate that didn’t win its series, dropping four-of-six to Salt Lake (LAA). The A-Ball affiliates both won five-of-six in their match-ups, with the Spokane Indians taking down the Eugene Emeralds (SF) and Fresno Grizzlies getting the best of Rancho Cucamonga (LAD). Like their younger brothers, the Hartford Yard Goats also notched five wins in their series on the road against the Bowie Baysox (BAL).
A key contributor to the series was Karl Kauffmann (No. 20 PuRP), who delivered another strong performance in his start on Wednesday with just one hit allowed over 6 u2154 shutout innings with eight strikeouts recorded.
