Minor League Ball Gameday, Saturday, September 2nd, 2017

There sure was some fancy pitching last night, wasn’t there?

Connor Grey hurled a perfect game. He needed 100 pitches, 70 of which were strikes, to get through nine. It was the first perfecto in Kane County Cougar history.

The Braves young hurlers cleaned house last night. South Atlantic League Pitcher of the Year (5 IP, 1 H, 3 BB, 6 K), Kyle Wright (2 IP, 1 H, 3 K), Kolby Allard (7 IP, 1 H, 1 BB, 5 K), and Mike Soroka (6 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 7 K) combined to allow one whole run to score.

Yesterday, our own Matt Powers told you about Mitch Keller. He responded by hurling six innings of shutout ball, striking out 11 and walking one.

Ronald Acuna is the youngest player in the International League. He’s also the International League Player of the Month. Wow.

Eric Cole set up our September Call-up Thread. Be sure to check it out and add as more prospects join the fun.
