This past weekend was tough on Sox affiliates; the Knights, Dash, and Cannon Ballers were all kept out of the win column.
Tim Elko slugged three homers for the Knights, Braden Montgomery recorded two more doubles to give himself eight across the series, and Grant Umberger punched out eight to set the Cannon Ballers single-strikeout record.
All this and more in this weekend’s minor league recap!
