It was opening day for the Rays AAA, AA, A+ and A affiliates today.

AAA Durham: An incredible game and incredible comeback as the Bulls overcame a 7-0 deficit to win 9-7 in the most dramatic fashion as Mike Lammers hit his 3rd homer of the game (yes, 3 homers), a 3-run walk-off shot in the bottom of the 9th. Lammers had 4 hits in total and drove in 7 of the 9 runs with the other 2 coming on a Caleb Picciotti double. The news wasn't all good, though: Gil Wayne, one of our top pitching prospects, pitched 2 scoreless innings in his AAA debut but on his last pitch tore his triceps and will miss most of the rest of the season (late August return date). Our top prospect, 2B Jaiden Hardaway, had a nice game in his AAA debut as he was on base 4 times in 5 trips with 2 walks and 2 singles.

AA Montgomery: The Biscuits' game against Chattanooga featured a number of premium prospects. Chris Martin, the #1 overall pick in the 2029 draft and the #1-rated prospect by BNN got the start for the Lookouts and lived up to billing with a 6.2 5 1 1 0 5 performance in a 3-1 loss for Montgomery. #8 and #13 prospects Bo Angeac and Omar Rodriguez started to the Biscuits, Angeac going 0-4 and Omar 1-4 with a double off Martin.

A+ Port Charlotte: The Stone Crabs fell 4-0 to Palm Beach. Nothing of note to report except starter Mike Kester left after two batters with a herniated disc and will miss 5 weeks.

A Bowling Green: The Hot Rods fell 8-2 to Fort Wayne. #68 overall prospect Jon Jimenez had a double for Bowling Green.
