Winter Leagues: Jerry Sands Drives In First Run

Published:

In a light day of action on Monday, Jerry Sands went 1-for-3 with an RBI. He had a single and a sacrifice fly. There was only one game in Puerto Rico due to the weather. Sands is 1-for-7 through two games.

In the Dominican, Matt Hague went 0-for-4 in his team’s 4-3 loss. Hague is hitting .306 through ten games.

Gregory Polanco had the day off one night after having his 13 game hitting streak snapped. If you missed it from yesterday, we broke down the competition level in the Dominican, taking a look at all of the pitchers that Polanco has faced this season.

In Nicaragua, Adolfo Flores allowed one hit and recorded one out in his third appearance. He has pitched 2.1 innings, giving up three hits, but no runs.

Both the Venezuelan and Mexican Leagues had off yesterday.

John started working at Pirates Prospects in 2009, but his connection to the Pittsburgh Pirates started exactly 100 years earlier when Dots Miller debuted for the 1909 World Series champions. John was born in Kearny, NJ, two blocks from the house where Dots Miller grew up. From that hometown hero connection came a love of Pirates history, as well as the sport of baseball. When he didn't make it as a lefty pitcher with an 80+ MPH fastball and a slider that needed work, John turned to covering the game, eventually focusing in on the prospects side, where his interest was pushed by the big league team being below .500 for so long. John has covered the minors in some form since the 2002 season, and leads the draft and international coverage on Pirates Prospects. He writes daily on Pittsburgh Baseball History, when he's not covering the entire system daily throughout the entire year on Pirates Prospects.
