Through 67 games, Dunn has worked more walks (39) than times struck out (32)...he would be the first Red Wing to finish the season with this ratio since the team was affiliated with the Baltimore Orioles.

The former first-round pick worked his way into the seventh inning for the first time at the Triple-A level and the first time since 6/15/2023 with Double-A Harrisburg.

Rutledge's three strikeouts level him with Spenser Watkins for the most on the team with 46.

ALEX BALL FOUR : CF ALEX CALL walked three times Sunday afternoon for the fourth occasion in 2024...the former White Sox third-round pick has worked three walks in four different games this season, becoming the first Red Wing to do so since Antoan Richardson in 2013 (5 times)...

Call has 36 walks this season, three behind SS JACK DUNN for the team lead.

TWO'S A PARTY: DH HAROLD RAMIREZ turned in a multi-hit performance on Sunday, finishing 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored...this was the Colombia native's first multi-hit game at the Triple-A level since he had two hits on 8/14/2022 with Durham.
