Box Scores
AAA: Round Rock 1, Oklahoma City (LAD) 8
Round Rock: 7 hits, 4 walks, 8 strikeouts
Opponent: 9 hits, 4 walks, 4 strikeouts
Record: 13-18, 5 GB
SP Trey Supak: 5 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 3 SO, 84 P / 53 S, 5.04 ERA
RP Ryan Brasier: 1 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 2 BB, 1 SO, 6.57 ERA
2B Cameron Cauley: 2-3, BB, .245/.380/.367
SS Diego Castillo: 2-4
28-year-old Diego Castillo is a recently signed utility man who’s played in seven previous US organizations but most recently in Mexico. He hit .206/.251/.382 in 96 games for Pittsburgh in 2022 followed by sips of coffee in Arizona and Minnesota. In terms of AAA activity, he gets on base and has a little pop.
Righty Patrick Murphy was transferred from the ordinary IL to the 60-day. Josh Sborz was transferred to the development list after last Sunday’s outing and has yet to reappear.
On a chilly, wet night, Emiliano Teodo (1 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 2 BB, 1 SO) was missing a couple of ticks off his fastball (94-98) and enough of the horizontal movement that Statcast classified most as four-seamers instead of his usual sinker. Location was odd, too, mostly down-in to lefties and down-out to righties. It wasn’t working for him, though he did miss two bats with a change and another with a slider. 
AA: Frisco 4, at Corpus Christi (HOU) 9
Frisco: 5 hits, 6 walks, 8 strikeouts
Opponent: 13 hits, 7 walks, 9 strikeouts
Record: 13-12, 4.5 GB
SP Leandro Lopez: 3.1 IP, 10 H, 7 R, 3 BB, 4 SO, 84 P / 48 S, 5.82 ERA
RF Orlando Martinez: 2-2, HR (3), 2 BB, SB (7), .330/.422/.545
3B Max Wagner: 1-4, HR (1)
In three of four innings, the first two batters reach safely before Leandro Lopez recorded an out, and he’d end up retiring only nine of 22 batters. Lopez was able to sneak out of some dicey situations in his first two starts but not lately, so now his ERA reflects the troubles he’s been having. He’s walked or hit at least three batters in all five starts. On the upside, he’s been exceptionally averse to fly balls.
Newcomer Max Wagner has two homers in two games as a Rider. 
Hi-A: Hub City 7, at Greenville (BOS) 1
Hub City: 14 hits, 7 walks, 13 strikeouts
Opponent: 7 hits, 2 walks, 10 strikeouts
Record: 11-13, 4.5 GB
SP J’Briell Easley: 2 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 1 SO, 39 P / 25 S, 3.72 ERA
RP Joe Adametz: 6 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 HBP, 8 SO, 3.66 ERA
DH Antonis Macias: 3-5, BB, .167/.303/.222
LF Paxton Kling: 1-3, 2 BB: .238/.371/.325
RF Yeison Morrobel: 2-5, 2B, .265/.321/.458
CF Quincy Scott: 2-3, 2 BB, .212/.381/.394
Hub City broke open a tight game with a six-hit, six-hit 6th. Rafe Perich drove in three with a couple of singles.
Paxton Kling has been patient and drawing walks at will but has the unlikely combination of a low swing rate and high miss rate, so nearly one-third of his pitches have resulted in a call or miss. 
Lo-A: Hickory 1, at Fredericksburg (WAS) 8
Hickory: 7 hits, 3 walks, 9 strikeouts
Opponent: 11 hits, 5 walks, 9 strikeouts
Record: 15-10, 0.5 G up
SP Evan Siary: 5.2 IP, 7 H (1 HR), 4 R, 3 BB, 6 SO, 84 P / 59 S, 4.76 ERA
Hickory broke a four-game streak of one-run losses, but be careful what you wish for. Evan Siary held the Nats scoreless until the 5th, when three extra-base hits including an Eli Willits homer plated three. Hector Osorio was 2-4.
Catcher josh Springer is on the seven-day IL.
