RED WINGS NOTES:

DO NOT PASS HOME: CF

DYLAN CREWS and LF STONE GARRETT each threw a runner out at the plate to keep Rochester within striking distance tonight...this marks the second time that the Red Wings have recorded two outfield assists this season (7/21) and the first time that both have come at the plate since 8/25/2013 against Indianapolis.

AROUND THE HORN: DH

TRAVIS BLANKENHORN extended his hitting streak to seven games with a line drive off the wall for a double in the fourth inning tonight... the 27-year old has now logged an extra-base hit in seven consecutive games, tied for the the longest streak by any player in the International League this season...Blankenhorn finished the contest 3-for-4 and added a solo home run, his 23rd of the season which ties his career high and matches his 2023 total... since returning from the All-Star break, the lefty outfielder's .469 (15-for-32) batting average, 1.031 slugging percentage, and 1.531 OPS leads all Minor Leaguers (min. 25 AB) over that stretch... He is the first Red Wing with an XBH in seven-straight games since Zander Weil in 2019 (8, 8/24-31).

CALL-ING MY SPIRIT: RF ALEX CALL notched his 13th double of the season with the Red Wings tonight, extending his on-base streak to a team-leading 16 straight games... Call finished the night 1-for-5 with an RBI, and has now logged a hit in 13 out of the 16 games he has played in the month of July...Call is hitting .321 (17-for-53) with four doubles and 12 RBI in the month of July.

CREW LOVE: CF DYLAN CREWS slapped a 2-1 sinker in the bottom of the first inning off the wall in right-center to record his first triple with the Red Wings since his promotion on June 18th... MLB's No. 4 ranked prospect went 1-for-5 on Saturday night with an RBI, a run scored and an outfield assist... The triple gives him his 8th extra-base-hit since joining the squad on June 18th, second-most on the team over that stretch.

IT'S GARRETT-TEED:

LF STONE GARRETT doubled for the fifth time this season on Saturday night on his way to a 3-for-4 performance with a double and a walk... the former Miami Marlin is hitting .325 (13-for-40) in the month of July with three doubles and three home runs over the period... This is Garrett's first three-hit game since 8/8/2023 against Philadelphia, with Washington.

IRONPIGS NOTES:

KOMMANDER KODY: DH

KODY CLEMENS smashed a three-run shot in the top of the first to get the night started for Lehigh Valley... the Houston native finished the contest 1-for-3 with a total of four RBI, two walks and a run scored... The 104.4 mph rocket marked Clemens' 10th home run against Rochester, and his 9th at Innovative Field.
