MINOR-LEAGUE REPORT

AAA Columbus Clippers

Mud Hens 4, Clippers 1 Infield prospect Jason Donald and starting pitcher Scott Barnes both left the game with injuries in a loss at Toledo. Barnes' injury, according to the Columbus Dispatch, appears to be serious. The 6-4 lefty went down in a heap with a left knee injury after fielding a bunt in the sixth inning. Columbus manager Mike Sarbaugh said that coach Lee May Jr. heard the knee pop from where he was standing in the dugout. In the top of the sixth, Donald pulled up at second with an apparent injury to his right hamstring after legging out a double, and left for a pinch runner. He later said he just had a cramp.

Notes: Barnes is 7-4 with a 3.68 ERA. He has appeared in 16 games and made 15 starts. He has fanned 90 batters in 88 innings. He was an eighth-round pick by the Giants in 2008 and was traded to the Indians organization in 2009 for Ryan Garko.
