Tuesday was a relatively quiet night down on the farm, but Sox fans were still treated to some solid offense out of the Double-A Birmingham mainstays and some intriguing pitching performances. Notably, Cristian Mena battled through five innings of two-run ball in his Triple-A Charlotte debut, Jonathan Cannon struggled in Birmingham, and 2023 sixth-rounder Lucas Gordon excelled for High-A Kannapolis.
All four teams did fall short, continuing a disappointing trend of losses in the Sox farm system.
