7/8 Minor League Wrap-Up, Condensed Edition

Lines only again, but I'll note a few things up front.  This may be a better way to do things for now:

- Triunfel hit his 2nd career home run.

- The Rainiers gave up nearly 3 touchdowns in a 20-7 loss.  And a lot of Rainiers bats put up some nice offensive numbers as well.  The wind didn't appear to be blowing noticeably out to the fences, and while somewhat offense friendly given the altitude and dry climate, Franklin Covey Field isn't known for being a launchpad.

- Jessie Nava and Angel Raga combined on a one hitter for the DSLMs.  Nava's hit allowed came very early in the game.

- Brent Gaphardt made his 1st appearance since 2006 Tommy John surgery for the AZLMs, throwing a perfect rehab inning before taking a seat.

- Dennis Freaking Raben was finally stopped... by the schedule.  The Aquasox had yesterday off.

Stats below.  On to the wrap-up!
