THE LAST TIME THE DASH PLAYED

In the bottom of the second, the Dash added to their lead. To lead off the frame, Craig Dedelow crushed a 432-foot solo homer to right-center field to give the Dash a 2-0 edge. Zach Lewis earned the win in relief with three innings of one-run ball.
NO PLAYOFFS YET, BUT PLAYING WELL

THE FIRST-ROUNDER HAS MOVED UP

The former Beavers star also racked up 17 stolen bases, which is tied for third-best in the Carolina League. Upon his departure, Madrigal's 2.8% strikeout rate led all of affiliated professional baseball. The second baseman struck out just six times in 218 plate appearances for Winston-Salem.
MR. DEEDS

Cavanerio has also pitched in the Marlins system during his time in the Minors.
