MiLB … Martinez, Shorey solo shots not enough for AA-Cards

Springfield Cardinals (AA): Despite home runs (solo shots) by Jose Martinez and Mark Shorey, the AA-Cards dropped one to the Arkansas Travelers 4-2 at Hammons Field last night.

Jess Todd suffered the loss, his record now at 3-4. Todd gave up all four of the Travelers runs over his 4.1 innings or starting work. Todd walked only one while striking out six.

Martinez went 3-for-4 on the day, with the home run and a double.

MiLB … Parisi rolls, Phelps scores only run in AAA win

Memphis Redbirds (AAA): Mike Parisi boosted his record to 8-2 with a 1-0 AAA-Redbirds win last night at Autozone Park.

The visiting Portland Sea Dogs were unable to score upon Parisi, nor middle relievers Jason Motte and Chris Perez, each earning a hold. Mark Worrell was credited with the save for his work as closer.

David Freese supplied what would turn out to be the game-winning hit early, in the second inning, after Josh Phelps led off with a double.

Brian Barden went 2-for-4.
