A 4-2 Knights loss was the only thing that prevented an organizational sweep on Friday. The Sox, Barons, Dash, and Cannon Ballers all captured wins to kick off the weekend.
Alec Briley drilled a pair of homers for the Barons, George Wolkow crushed a grand slam amid the Dash’ 14-run outburst, and Ryan Galanie picked up his 18th longball of the year.
All this and more in today’s farm report!
Triple-A Charlotte Knights (58-48)
