TWitM: Emmanuel Rivera doubles 5 times
‘This Week in the Minors’ is our weekly look at notable performances from all over the system, from big-name prospects and less heralded guys alike. The mission is to answer this simple question: “Who had a good week?”
Today, we’ll cover results from Monday, August 20 through Sunday, August 27.
AAA Omaha Storm Chasers (61-70)
On back-to-back days, Chasers pitchers took no-hitters into the 6th inning. Jonathan Dziedzic lost his no-no after 5 1/3, but hung on for another four outs and got the W. Glenn Sparkman, in his first start after being sent down from Kansas City, also gave up his first hit after 5 1/3, but left the game after two runs scored shortly thereafter.
