Minor Details: Games of July 12

An excellent game for Stephen Gonsalves.  Kudos to the Southern League for not deferring to the major league all-star game.

CHATTANOOGA 4, TENNESSEE 0 IN TENNESSEE

Levi Michael tripled in the first run and scored the second in the third inning.  Stephen Gonsalves and two relief pitchers took it from there.  Gonsalves struck out eleven in six shutout innings, giving up four hits and no walks.  Trevor Hildenberger struck out two in a perfect inning, lowering his ERA to 0.86 and his WHIP to 0.67 with 35 strikeouts and 5 walks in 31.1 innings (26 games).  Shannon Wilkerson was 2-for-2 with two walks.  Levi Michael was 2-for-3 with a triple and a walk.  Leonardo Reginatto was 2-for-4 and is batting .300.  Zach Granite was 1-for-5 and is batting .306.

GCL TWINS 6, GCL ORIOLES 4 AT ORIOLES
