Hall 7.1-5-4-2-2-10 Salinas 3-4 2 HR's 3 RBI's (46) Hudson 3-3 HR 2 RBI's (85)

GREAT GAMES-Jerry Grant (MICH) went 4-5 with 3 HR's and 6 RBI's in Michigan's 21-12 win over West Michigan. It marked the 3rd time in team history a Wolverine slugger went deep 3 times.

MINORS NEWS-White Caps prospect 19 year old Louie Ginger (1B) is hitting .384-3-24 on the year and his 2-3 day yesterday extended his hitting streak to 31 games. Ginger was signed out of Wales in 2020 and is currently the #2 IBL prospect.

W-Morgan (9-6) L-Lopez (6-9) S-Cruz (11)
HR GB-Dominguez (25) CHI-Salinas 2 (15) Miranda (8)
Morgan 7.1-4-4-4-2-9 Salinas 2-3 2 HR's 2 RBI's (48) (5-7 4 HR's past 2 days)

INJURY NEWS-Michigan suffers a blow (see press release below)

7/15 CHI 4 SI 2
W-Trujillo (12-3) L-Castro (8-5) S-Casas (11)
HR CHI-Miranda (9)
Trujillo 6.1-6-2-2-1-4 Tucker (H7) Carlson (H14) Moreno (H5) come up huge. Pen feels like it's stabilizing. Castro 3-5 2B (17) RBI (61) Ash 2-4 2 2B's (26) 2 RBI's (49)

DRAFT NEWS-1st round draft choice Carlos Hernandez (3rd overall pick) and the team could not come to terms. We did not have the leeway to move up, and he was not willing to move down. We'll get that same pick in next years draft and he'll return to school for a 3rd time.

MINORS NEWS-White Cap prospect Louie Ginger went 2-4 and his 1st inning single extended his hitting streak to 33 games. I will have to check, and I will, but I believe that is the longest streak in IBL history. The 19 year old is playing for AA Chesapeake.

GREAT GAMES-Stanford Wilson (NO) went 3-3 with 3 solo HR's to record the 2nd 3 homer day in Voodoo club history. The 29 year old is hitting .232-9-14 on the year.

7/16 SI 8 CHI 5

W-Rea (3-1) L-Martinez (5-5) S-Vazquez (9)

Rea 7-6-5-4-2-1 Martinez 5.1-9-7-7-1-3 led 2-0 after 3, 2 in the 4th 1 in the 5th and a 4 run 6th ended the day. Sanchez (SI) 3-3 HR 2 RBI's (60) Flowers 3-4 2 2B's (19) RBI (33) Hudson 2-5 2B (17) HR 3 RBI's (88)

GREAT GAMES-Three days after hitting 3 homers in a game Michigan's Jerry Grant went 5-5 in a 10-4 win over Hawaii. He's now hitting .303-17-51.

MINORS NEWS-Louie Ginger had his hitting streak halted at 33 games.
