Rays prospects and minor leagues: Champions! Hot Rods clinch Midwest League title

With Bowling Green’s season now finished, there’s just one game left on the Rays minor league schedule this season — Durham’s Triple-A National Championship contest against Memphis on Tuesday.

Triple-A Durham Bulls (79-60)

Durham was off.

Class-A Bowling Green Hot Rods (7-1)

Bowling Green rolled to a 7-2 win over Peoria, winning its first Midwest League championship. With a lot of early scoring, the outcome was hardly in doubt. Vidal Brujan led off the game with a walk and scored on Moises Gomez’s double, and the Hot Rods put the game out of the reach in the second inning.
