Six wins in nine tries for the affiliates including four performances by top pitching draftees.

Dustin McGowan pitched well in AA and Henderson Alvarez seemed pretty good in the ole MLB, but that doesn't count for these purposes anymore. Elsewhere, some hitting, some pitching, some wins, some losses.

The affiliates were 3-4 on the night with one rainout and another game called early.  The highlights were Bluefield's pitching and Las Vegas' bats.

The farm featured some great pitching performances from top prospects, but the best performance (possibly of the entire year) came from an unheralded DSL pitcher.

It was an ugly day on the farm with just one win.

We got your losses. Everywhere except Vancouver and the Gulf Coast League.

Hitters to the left, Hitters to the Right – That Makes for a Great Firday Night.

Seven games, six wins and a whole whack of dominant pitching.

There were 3 great pitching performances on the farm, plus plenty of late inning fireworks.

A .500 night on the farm and it would have been better had it not been for an extra-innings loss and another loss of the come from ahead variety.

One of the youngest (read: born during the strike year) Jays minor-leaguers earned the first star as the farm went 4-2.

It was an off day on the farm as the affiliates went 2-4.

Toronto’s affiliates had two on walk-off victories last night. One of those came on the always-exciting walk-off balk. New Hampshire also swept their doubleheader with a pair of one-run victories. Unfortunately, it wasn’t so rosy everywhere else, as Vancouver was shut out and Las Vegas lost by 11 runs and not one, but two, position players pitched in relief for the 51’s.

Hot lumber told the story on the farm on Friday with the affiliates winning 5 of 6 games played.  Some nice pitching performances, but the story was told by so many stepping up to the plate on offence.

Three wins in nine tries for the young guys. But that didn't stop some key individuals from performing well.
