Around the System - May 21

Triple-A: Scranton 10, Indianapolis 7; Scranton 7, Indianapolis 4
The Yankees clubbed five doubles in the first game, the completion of Thursday's suspended contest, and in the process helped Kei Igawa added to franchise-best win total. Igawa began the game in place of starter Ivan Nova, who allowed five runs in 2 1/3 innings before play was stopped. Grant Duff and Jonathan Albaladejo worked the final four innings.

David Winfree, Jon Weber, Matt Cusick, Greg Golson and Reid Gorecki had Scranton's two-baggers, and Jesus Montero went 3-for-5 with two runs scored and a walk. His batting average is now .244.

In the scheduled game, Zach McAllister went all seven innings, allowing four runs (three earned) along the way. He struck out five and walked one. His season ERA stands at 4.33.

Chad Huffman, Reid Gorecki and Eduardo Nunez each had doubles, and Huffman drove in two runs. Greg Golson swatted his third longball of the season. He was 2-for-4 with two runs overall. Nunez also stole a base, his 11th.

Double-A: Portland 11, Trenton 8
A brutal collapse in the eighth inning on the parts of Paul Bush and Noel Castillo (Wilkins Arias got an out in between them) led to the Thunder blowing an 8-6 lead and moving into a tie for second place in the EL East. Bush retired none of the three men he faced, and took the loss. His ERA is infinite. Starter D.J. Mitchell somehow allowed just four runs on 11 hits over five innings. He also allowed a home run to Mike Cameron, was rehabbing with the Sea Dogs.

Austin Romine was 3-for-5 with three doubles, three runs and two RBIs. Not too shabby. David Adams also walked twice, and Luis Nunez took Tommy Hottovy deep. Brandon Laird was also 3-for-5 with a run and two RBIs.
