Orioles LHP DL Hall, Class A Advanced Frederick: 6 IP, 3 H, 1 R/ER, 2 BB, 10 K -- Baltimore's No. 3 prospect matched a career high in strikeouts and fanned six his first time through the Myrtle Beach lineup. He did not allow a hit until the fifth when back-to-back knocks resulted in the Pelicans' only run of the game. Hall has given up a total five earned runs in his last five starts, sporting a 1.71 ERA over that span. The 20-year-old has a 3.36 ERA in 75 innings this season and opposing batters are hitting .193 against him. Gameday box score

Padres 3B/1B Ty France, Triple-A El Paso: 4-for-5, 3 RBI, R -- The No. 24 Padres prospect powered the Chihuahuas to an 8-5 win over Nashville, driving in two runs in the third and another in the fifth. France continues to shred Minor League pitching in 2019 and especially of late, with six multi-hit games in his last 11 contests. He has logged at least four hits in three of those outings. In 65 games, the 25-year-old has compiled a .388/.470/.761 slash line that leads the Pacific Coast League in all three categories. Gameday box score
Mariners LHP Justus Sheffield, Double-A Arkansas: 7 IP, 4 H, 1 R/ER, 1 BB, 9 K -- The ninth-ranked Mariners prospect topped the strong outing he had his last time out, allowing one fewer hit, one fewer walk and striking out an extra batter while still surrendering a lone run over seven frames. He hasn't let up more than two earned runs in his last nine starts, six of which have lasted at least seven frames. The 23-year-old has not been tagged for a home run during that span dating back to June 18. Sheffield's ERA dropped to 1.64, which would lead the Texas League if he had enough innings to qualify. In opposition, No. 20 Cardinals prospectAngel Rondon allowed one earned run on three hits over 6 1/3 innings. He struck out four and walked four. Gameday box score

Marlins OF Kameron Misner, Class A Clinton: 3-for-5, HR, 2 RBI, R -- The Marlins took Misner, now ranked as their No. 10 prospect, with the 35th overall pick in June's Draft. His ninth-inning home run put the LumberKings ahead for good. He has played three games in the Midwest League so far and the early returns -- two home runs, six RBIs and a .455/.533/1.000 slash line -- have topped the .241/.421/.310 line he posted in eight Rookie-level Gulf Coast League games. Gameday box score
Rays RHP Shane Baz, Class A Bowling Green: 5.2 IP, 3 H, 1 R/ER, 4 BB, 2 K -- The Rays' sixth-ranked prospect was once again able to limit the damage. He has given up 18 hits and 15 walks over his last four starts, but only a total of seven earned runs in that span. On Thursday, he at one point retired nine consecutive batters and did not allow a runner to reach second base until the sixth, when two hits and a walk loaded the bases before a wild pitch enabled the game's first run to cross the plate. Reds righty Eduardo Salazar tossed six two-hit innings for Dayton, striking out five and walking one. Gameday box score
Brewers OF Tristen Lutz, Class A Advanced Carolina: 4-for-5, HR, 2 RBI, R -- Milwaukee's No. 2 prospect went big in his first multi-hit game since June 12, notching four hits for the first time in his career. His two-run homer in the seventh plated No. 9 Brewers prospect Mario Feliciano and widened the margin in the Mudcats' eventual 7-0 win over the Wood Ducks. The 20-year-old is hitting .247/.335/.399 in 99 games this year. Gameday box score
