Mobile BayBears News Release
MOBILE, AL -- The Mobile BayBears and Arizona Diamondbacks have announced that on Wednesday, July 2, 2014, RHP Charles Brewer has been promoted from Class AA Mobile to Class AAA Reno. In a corresponding move, RHP Eric Brooks joins the BayBears from the Diamondbacks Rookie affiliate in Missoula.
Brewer first joined Mobile on May 21 from Triple-A Reno. In his first stint with the BayBears since 2012, Brewer was 3-2 with a 2.91 ERA in seven starts. In a win over Huntsville on June 9, the Paradise Valley native carried a no-hit bid into the top of the sixth inning while striking out a career-high 13 batters.
Brooks joins the BayBears after being signed as a Minor League Free Agent with the D-backs May 26 when he was assigned to Missoula. In three games with the Osprey this season Brooks was 0-0 with a 1.42 ERA, allowing one earned run on four hits in 6.1 innings of work. The Round Rock native also appeared in three games for Triple-A Reno in June, not allowing any runs and just two hits in 7.0 innings with the Aces.
The BayBears and Generals conclude their five game series with the finale on Thursday night at the Ballpark at Jackson. Mobile will send RHP A.J. Schugel (4-1, 3.81) to the mound while Jackson will counter with RHP Matt Anderson (3-3, 4.53). First pitch Thursday night is set for 7:05 PM.
