Player of the day
Zyhir Hope had himself a game, with four hits, a home run, a stolen base, and a runner thrown out at home plate. For all that goodness, he is knighted POTD.

Triple-A Oklahoma City
Justin Dean scored five runs, Alex Freeland drove in six runs, and Chuckie Robinson got four hits as the Comets put up gaudy numbers to defeat the Reno Aces (Diamondbacks) 16-3. Matt Sauer started the game for the Comets and got the win, pitching six innings and giving up three runs. Blake Treinen pitched another perfect inning. Now that he has pitched on two consecutive days, expect his next appearance to be with the Dodgers. Nick Frasso, ranked by MLB Pipeline as the Dodgers’ 28th best prospect, pitched a perfect inning with two strikeouts.

Double-A Tulsa
Consensus top Dodgers pitching prospect Jackson Ferris allowed only one run, and four relievers held the Springfield Cardinals scoreless as the Tulsa Drillers pulled out a 2-1 victory. It looked like the Drillers might get shut out for the second game in a row, but Kyle Nevin cashed in a triple by Kole Myers with one out in the eighth inning with a sacrifice fly, and the game went into extra innings. Myers then singled in designated runner Taylor Young with a game-winning, walk-off single.
The night for Ferris has come to an end.
5.2IP 8H 1R 6Ks 2BBUsed a lot of FB-Slider/Sweeper 2l1st time through, then 2 Seam change up 2nd time.
Fastball tails, so hitters lean, which gives them NO chance on the left turners.
That’s 1 great combo!
Then, the 2 Seam and change… pic.twitter.com/1NLjMugjI1
