Rays prospects and minor leagues: Brandon Lowe, Franco homer again

If you missed it earlier this week, infielder Kean Wong and reliever Ian Gibaut were named International League All-Stars. With the way he’s hitting, Brandon Lowe may have been one too if rosters were decided a week later than they are.

Triple-A Durham Bulls (44-34)

Durham hit three home runs in a 12-1 win over Norfolk. Brandon Lowe went deep yet again, Jeremy Hazelbaker’s homer led off the three-run fifth, and Nick Ciuffo’s first Triple-A home run capped the eight-run sixth inning. With all the run support, Chih-Wei Hu pitched what was easily his best start of the season, allowing just one run in eight-plus innings.
