My usually reliable internet connection called in sick yesterday evening so I've had to catch up on everything after the fact. I managed to keep up to date on the big league Padres' score by flipping over to MLB Network when Golden Girls would go to a commercial break but remained in the dark as far as minor league results were concerned. Turns out the kids went 2-2 with wins by Lake Elsinore and Fort Wayne; the Tin Caps prevailed 1-0 despite getting one hit . As a whole, our farmhands scored 12 runs on five doubles, a triple and a home run. From the mounds they allowed 19, striking out 37 and walking 13.
