Notable Performances:

—  Taylor Rogers, the Twins No. 13 prospect, had a really strong afternoon and threw five shutout innings.

The left-hander struck out three, walked two and surrendered a pair of hits in his outing. After a couple rough outings, Tuesday’s game was Rogers’ best of the AFL so far. Rogers had great command of his pitches and was in a nice rhythm all afternoon. Read more about him on MLBpipeline.com.

Best Play:

— D-backs shortstop prospect Jack Reinheimer has a reputation for being a strong defender and the organization’s No. 12 prospect hasn’t disappointed thus far in the AFL. Reinheimer may a nice diving catch of a line drive in the first inning – just the latest example of his defensive abilities.

Best At-Bat:

— Nationals No. 21 Spencer Kieboom hit a go-ahead three-run homer to left in the sixth inning. Kieboom, who suffered a concussion at the end of the season, is healthy and having a nice showing in the AFL so far. The home run was his first of the Fall – Kieboom hit just two homers in 71 games this season – but the catcher does have a hit in five consecutive games.

Worth Mentioning:

— Kyle Freeland LHP Rockies No. 9 6 runs in 3.2 IP over two starts, but 3 scoreless in last start

Rockies prospect Kyle Freeland has improved each time I’ve seen him and Tuesday was no different. The left-hander threw six innings and allowed just one run on three hits.

Freeland, the No. 9 prospect in Colorado’s organization, couldn’t get out of the first inning in his first start and followed that up with three scoreless frames in his next start. Tuesday, despite allowing a run, was better as he looked to have command of all his pitches, especially the off-speed stuff.

— Giants No. 13 prospect Mac Williamson hit a pair of doubles and showed off his ability to hit the ball to all fields. Williamson hit a ground rule double to right in his first at-bat and followed that up with a double down the left field line in his next trip to the plate.

Williamson went opposite field again in his final at-bat of the day as he hit a two-run homer into the right-field bullpen.
