Devil Rays Minor League Baseball Blog

The Devil Rays had two chances to win the Governers Cup today and they could pull of a win in either game.  Game one saw Richmond win 6-2 and all four Bulls pitchers that were used in the game gave up runs.  Justin Ruggiano belted a solo homerun and Evan Longoria went two for four with a double and a run.

The second game then turned into a winner take all one for the championship and that one was a 7-2 defeat.  Mitch Talbot was hammered for five runs in 2 1/3 innings and all the Bulls could manage was six hits.  Ruggiano hit his second homer of the day with a solo shot and Michel Hernandez went two for four with a double.

Jae Seo pitched the Bulls to within one game of the Governor’s Cup in a 3-2 game three win.  He gave up just two runs on six hits with six strikeouts in seven innings.

Chris Richard went two for four with a double, a run and an RBI.  Michel Hernandez went one for three and he drove in three runs.
