Frisco RoughRiders 2, Missions 1

Key Statistics: RHP Jared Kollar (L, 0-2), 4 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 5 K; RHP José Geraldo 1.1 IP, 1 H, 3 K; SS Francisco Acuña 2-for-3, R, BB; 1B Romeo Sanabria 1-for-4, RBI

Prospect Watch: The Missions lost a tough one in San Antonio, where Jared Kollar faced both the Frisco lineup and the stifling weather (94 degrees and partly cloudy). The righty lasted four innings of two-run ball while striking out five and taking the hard luck loss. After a sterling 2024 in San Antonio led to a promotion to El Paso, the 26-year-old struggled mightily this season with the Chihuahuas and has found himself back with the Missions this month in search of his form. … Not only did José Geraldo throw an inning-plus of scoreless baseball, the righty struck out three and stranded both runners he inherited. The Dominican righty has continued a solid run in San Antonio that began after a promotion from Fort Wayne last season. He owns a 2.57 ERA and 24% strikeout rate in 19 appearances for the Missions in 2025. Although he is already 26 years old, Geraldo lost his first season out of the Arizona Complex League to the canceled 2020 season, and spent all of 2022 in the IL. … Despite a relatively punchless San Antonio offense, Jose Acuña was again tremendous out of the leadoff spot, going 2-for-3 while also reaching base via a walk and scoring the only Missions’ run. The 25-year-old infielder has been a solid for San Antonio in his first season since signing with Padres organization over the winter, batting .274 with a .780 OPS, including a .740 OPS in games at spacious Nelson Wolff Stadium. The former Pirates farmhand owns an .822 mark when the Missions hit the road. … The only RBI of the evening was courtesy of Romeo Sanabria, who went 1-for-4. The 23-year-old first baseman continues to look like a draft steal, as the 2022 18th rounder out of Indian River State Junior College is batting .294 with a .762 OPS. … The loss pushed the Missions a half game behind Frisco and into a tie with Midland. The South Division champion of the Texas League will be decided at the end of the week.

TinCaps 12, Dayton Dragons 1

Key Statistics: RHP Miguel Mendez (W, 3-2) 5.1 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 5 BB, 1 K; RHP Sean Barnett 1.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K; RF Braedon Karpathios 2-for-4, HR (7), 3 R, 3 RBI, BB; 2B Brandon Butterworth 3-for-4, 3B, 3 R, RBI, BB; C Oswaldo Linares 1-for-4, HR (1); DH Rosman Verdugo 2-for-4, 2B, BB, K

Prospect Watch: The TinCaps dominated in all facets tonight, starting with a solid start from Miguel Mendez, who overcame five walks in five-plus innings to allow just the one run en route to victory. After starting the year strong in Lake Elsinore, the 22-year-old has continued to thrive with Fort Wayne, posting a 2.30 ERA even though his strikeout rate has fallen to 26.9% in seven High-A starts. The hard-throwing righty is working on a career-best walk rate, though his FIP suggests some regression is coming on his ERA.  … Sean Barnett, the 2024 11th-rounder who is working on developing as a two-way player, had his strongest outing yet on the mound. The big righty struck out three batters over 1.2 scoreless innings, working around a single and hit batter. The 21-year-old righty owns a 3.38 ERA through his first five professional outings. He’s walked 20% of the batters faced, struck out 20% and held opponents to a .158 average. … Braedon Karpathios went 2-for-4 with his seventh home run of the season. The 22-year-old outfielder has shown a career-best .175 Isolated Power rate in 2025, though his strikeout rate has also jumped back up to 30.6% this year. He draws enough walks to go with the power that he’s producing 20% better than league average in his first pass at High-A. … Brandon Butterworth went 3-for-4 with his fifth triple of the year and scored three runs. The second baseman has seen his average drop and power production climb in each month of the season. He’s drawn only one walk in 64 plate appearances this month, limiting his June OPS to .644.

Rancho Cucamonga Quakes 3, Storm 2

Key Statistics: LHP Boston Bateman 5 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 6 K; LHP Igor Gil 3 IP, H, R (0 ER), BB, 4 K; 1B Lamar King Jr. 1-for-2, 2 BB; CF Chase Valentine 1-for-4, 2B, R

Prospect Watch: Losing a game to their rivals is hard enough, but the Storm dropped one to the Quakes after getting eight mostly outstanding innings from their pitching staff. Boston Bateman led the charge with six strikeouts in five innings of three-hit ball, walking two and allowing just one earned run. Bateman, the 6-foot-8, 19-year-old southpaw, is 5-3 with a 3.53 ERA and 54 strikeouts in 51 innings pitched on the year. In five starts since getting back to his regular rotation turn after missing a start with the flu in May, he’s allowed six runs with a 27:9 strikeout-to-walk ratio over 24.2 innings.. … After Bateman, Lake Elsinore got three innings from Igor Gil, who struck out four and allowed one hit and an unearned run in a nice bounce-back from his last outing. The 24-year-old Venezuelan lefty has been solid in 2025, going 1-0 with a 2.61 ERA and striking out 37 batters in 31 innings pitched. … Though the Storm struggled to produce runs, Lamar King Jr. reached base three times, going 1-for-2 with a pair of walks. King, a fourth round pick in 2022, owns a .768 OPS in 232 plate appearances  while primarily catching and taking the occasional night at first base like he did Thursday. He has already caught more than two-and-a-half times as many innings this year as he had in his career coming into the season and is on track to reach a career high in plate appearances in the next week. … Chase Valentine went 1-for-4 in the leadoff spot with a double. The versatile infielder/outfielder has played wherever the organization has needed him this season, playing games in Lake Elsinore, Fort Wayne, and San Antonio thus far.

ACL Padres 10, ACL Royals 5

Key Statistics: RHP Adan Moreno, 2.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K; C Yoiber Ocopio. 3-for-4, 2 HR, 2 R, 5 RBI; 2B Luis De Leon, 4-for-5, 2 R. RBI, BB; 1B Kale Fountain, 1-for-3, HR, 3 R, 2 RBI, 2 BB; DH Albert Fabian, 1-for-5, RBI

Prospect Watch: The Complex League Padres took the short trip to Surprise and had a successful outing, with Adan Moreno delivering two scoreless innings and striking out three in his third appearance of the year. The 20-year-old righty, who had Tommy John surgery after just one appearance in Lake Elsinore last year, will look to ramp up over the last few weeks of the ACL season before heading out to rejoin Lake Elsinore. … Every extra-base hit the Padres had was a home run, led by a pair off the bat of catcher Yoiber Ocopio. The 20-year-old backstop owns a .773 OPS thus  far in his first season stateside. He had only two home runs over 99 games in two DSL season, but has always shown good patience at the plate throughout his career. … Luis De Leon also had a monster night, going 4-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and a run batted in. The switch-hitting infielder is batting .307 with a .770 OPS in 114 at-bats. … Kale Fountain collected his first professional round-tripper and drew a pair of walks while he played his second game of the week at first base. The 19-year-old drafted out of high school in Nebraska last summer, has hit in four straight, raising his OPS 95 points in the process. He remains on track to join Lake Elsinore after he’s shown he can play in the field multiple days in a row. … Rehabbing infielder Albert Fabian went 1-for-5 and drove in a run.
