Published:

On Wednesday night in the Dominican League Finals, Gregory Polanco had a tough game and the rest of his team didn’t do any better. He went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts and his team lost 1-0, dropping them to 0-3 in the best-of-nine series. Polanco has struggled for the most part in the playoffs, hitting .176 in nine games. Game four of the series will take place tonight at 6:35 EST and it can be viewed here online.

Earlier on Wednesday, MLB.com named Polanco the third best outfield prospect.

From the Colombian League finals on Tuesday night, Harold Ramirez went 2-for-4 with an RBI and stolen base in his team’s 8-5 win. With the victory, the Tigres moved to 2-1 in the best-of-seven series. Tito Polo made his first appearance of the series, pinch-running and scoring a run in the eighth inning.

From Panama on Tuesday, Edgardo Munoz went 0-for-2 with a walk and run scored in his team’s 8-4 loss. In 14 games, he is hitting .231 with a .594 OPS and six stolen bases, which ties him for the league lead.

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.
