Jesus Sanchez was promoted to Double A Friday and made his debut for Montgomery. He played well for Charlotte, and a new level will be a good test for him. We’ll see if he’ll have to refine his plate approach against tougher pitching.
Right-handed pitcher Blake Bivens is also on the move up to Montgomery.
Triple-A Durham Bulls (61-46)
Durham hit four home runs in a 6-4 win over Charlotte. Andrew Velazquez’s two-run homer in the first opened the scoring, and Micah Johnson’s solo shot in the fifth broke a 2-2 tie.
