Earlier this week I covered the Single-A All-Star Game between these two leagues, held in Lake Elsinore.
From Lake Elsinore Diamond in Lake Elsinore. The California League won, 2-1 in 10 innings. Lancaster’s Jon Gaston hit the first pitch he saw in the 10th for a walkoff homer off Salem’s Derrick Loop. San Jose’s Buster Posey had an RBI single in the 1st before Frederick’s Pedro Florimon tripled in the 8th and scored on an error off the bat of Kinston’s Cord Phillips. Salem’s Ryne Miller was the top pitcher of the game, striking out 5 hitters in 2 innings of work. Visalia’s Pat McAnaney got credit for the win.
Most of this is just hitter/pitcher shots because I needed to get something of everyone for Scout.com, but there are a few action shots in there. Not as many as I’d like, though. Did get a few nice ones at the end of the celebration after the walkoff homer and a water bucket shower.
I’m flying out to Dallas on Monday and will probably see one or two Texas Rangers games before working the Double-A All-Star Game in Frisco. That’s a beautiful ballpark.
