I was able to squeeze in another game Labor Day weekend by going to see the Aberdeen IronBirds. Aberdeen pitchers held the Hickory bats to just 4 hits and racked up 12 strikeouts en route to a 4-2 victory. IronBirds C Connor Pavolony went 2-3 with a 3-run home run and all 4 RBIs for Aberdeen.
The game featured the following prospects:
DH Evan Carter (Rangers #3) – 0-3, run, reached on error, HBP
2B Thomas Saggese (Rangers #20) – 2-3, RBI double, HBP
SP Dane Acker (Rangers #25) – Loss, 3 2/3 innings, 4 hits, 3 ER, 3 BB, 5 K
RF Heston Kjerstad (Orioles #10) – 1-4, 2B
SS Frederick Bencosme (Orioles #28) – 1-3, BB, CS
