Yankees prospects struggle as Lagrange falters in relief outing

On June 28, the Yankees' minor league affiliates faced a challenging day. The Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders lost 6-5 against the Indianapolis Indians, with Carlos Lagrange struggling in relief, allowing five runs in just two-thirds of an inning. The Double-A Somerset Patriots also fell short, losing 5-3 at the New Hampshire Fisher Cats. Despite some standout performances, including Coby Morales hitting a home run, the Patriots couldn't secure a win. The High-A Hudson Valley Renegades won one game 8-0 before losing the second game 5-3 to the Bowling Green Hot Rods, while the Low-A Tampa Tarpons won a tightly contested game 5-4 in ten innings against the Dunedin Blue Jays. The minor league teams continue their seasons amid mixed results.
