More highlights from Winston-Salem, including Gonzalez’s homer.

Did Madrigal take a pitch all day?

Don’t worry, Moncada will take enough for the both of them. 

Josh Nelson

Both Madrigal and Robert were aggressive early in the count yesterday.

Wait, was that thing at the end Madrigal’s “double”?

Josh Nelson

Yes.

Not exactly the blast off of the left field wall that I had imagined.

Winston-Salem has an enviable minor league line-up.
You really don’t have to squint too hard at the top 4 as future major league regulars.

Pretty sure the wife is taking me to the games this weekend on a surprise trip.  Hoping Eloy joins the party

GMetrix

Lou Bob sure is taking some mean hacks since he’s come back. Thank god someone told him to slide feet first as well

PauliePaulie

FWIW- His original thumb injury was on a feet first slide.

Have Winston-Salem’s baserunning stats improved as the season has worn on?

Well, Eloy is back.
