Cleveland Indians' top draft pick, Francisco Lindor, singles in first pro at-bat: Minor-league report

McAllister sharp in Columbus win; Akron earns series split vs. Richmond; Tice shines in Kinston win; late rally falls for for Lake County; Lake Erie loses despite pitching a one-hitter.

A Mahoning Valley Scrappers

Scrappers 9, Jammers 2: Cleveland's No. 1 draft pick Francisco Lindor singled in his first at-bat of his professional debut, and later scored on a base hit. For the night, the shortstop was 1-for-3, as Mahoning Valley defeated Jamestown, N.Y., in a New York-Penn league game in Niles. Lindor also flied to left and grounded to second. Lindor also turned the pivot on two 4-6-3 double plays.

AAA Columbus Clippers

Clippers 8, Bats 5: Zach McAllister (11-3), who started a game for the Indians last week against Seattle, pitched six innings to pick up the win as Columbus won an International League game against visiting Louisville (Ky.). McAllister gave up three runs (two earned) and struck out nine. Josh Judy pitched a scoreless ninth for his 23rd save.

Notes: Judy's 23 saves tie for the IL lead, and are the seventh most in a season for Columbus.

AA Akron Aeros

Aeros 5, Flying Squirrels 2: Akron scored four runs in the bottom of the third inning to erase a two-run deficit and gain a split of a four-game series against Richmond (Va.) at Canal Park. Right-handed starter Austin Adams (11-10) struck out seven in five innings of the Eastern League game for Akron.

Advanced A Kinston Indians

Indians 9, Hillcats 2: Jeremie Tice homered as part of a three-hit, four RBI effort as Kinston won the Carolina League game at Lynchburg, Va. Clayton Cook (9-8) scattered four hits over five innings in getting the win.

Notes: The series between the Hillcats and Kinston was moved to Lynchburg because Grainger Stadium, in Kinston, was damaged by Hurricane Irene.

A Lake County Captains

Silver Hawks 3, Captains 2: Lake County scored a run in the top of the ninth at South Bend (Ind.), but the rally ended with runners on the corners. The Captains lost their seventh straight Midwest League game. Jordan Cooper (2-8) allowed three runs on eight hits, walked one and struck out three in six innings for Lake County.

Independent Lake Erie Crushers

RiverHawks 2, Crushers 0: Rockford (Ill.) defeated Lake Erie in a Frontier League game in Avon. The Crushers out-hit Rockford, 3-1. The RiverHawks' only hit was an RBI double.
