Minor League Recap - 5/29
Kei Igawa gave up 2 runs over 7.2 innings in Scranton's 9-4 win over the Pawtucket Red Sox last night. Igawa didn't walk a batter and struck out 4. Alberto Gonzalez made a triumphant return to the Yankees lineup with 3 hits and 4 RBI. Cody Ransom also belted a 3-run home run to help Scranton beat the PawSox for the 2nd straight night. The finale of the 4-game series is tonight with prospects Dan McCutchen and Justin Masterson squaring off.
Trenton lost their 3rd straight to the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, 5-4, in 11 innings. Eric Hacker allowed 1 earned run in 4 innings, striking out 7, before leaving after 80 pitches. Don't know if he's on a pitch count or not, but we've asked beat writer Mike Ashmore if he knows. Ramiro Pena lead the Thunder offense with 2 RBI.
The Tampa Yankees were below normal, well they were 2-hit over 7 innings by Duane Below of the Lakeland Flying Tigers in a 4-0 loss. Mike Dunn pitched a decent 5 innings, but Kevin Whelan allowed 2 runs in his 2 innings of relief. Mitch Hilligoss and Jose Gil had the lone Yankees hits.
The Charleston RiverDogs had the night off, but start a 3-game series at home tonight with the Hickory Crawdads.

Just to answer your question here as well -- Hacker was on an 80-85 pitch count.
He threw either 84 or 86, depending on who you believe.
Hey thanks Mike!
