Brewers SS Brice Turang, Class A Advanced Carolina: 3-for-5, R -- A promotion to the Carolina League has yet to produce consistent results for the top Brewers prospect, but his second three-hit game on the circuit ended a 1-for-17 funk that spanned five games. It was Turang's first multi-hit outing since Aug. 4, when he logged his second of back-to-back two-hit performances. All three of his knocks on Saturday were singles in the Mudcats' 8-7 win over Lynchburg. Gameday box score

The 23-year-old had given up three homers in his last two starts, but he yielded only three doubles and a single against Oklahoma City.

Tigers RHP Casey Mize, Double-A Erie: 6 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 4 K -- Detroit's top prospect has been up and down in recent starts, but he limited the damage and did not figure in the SeaWolves' 3-2 loss to Akron.

For the season, MLB.com's No. 2 overall prospect is 8-3 with a 2.55 ERA and 106 strikeouts over 109 1/3 innings in 21 starts. Gameday box score

White Sox LHP Tanner Banks, Double-A Birmingham: 7 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 1 BB, 5 Ks -- It was a much-needed bounce back for the 27-year-old southpaw. After allowing seven runs over four innings in his last outing, Banks responded with seven brilliant frames in the Barons' 3-0 win over Mississippi. He faced the minimum until his seventh and final inning and gave up just a single in the fourth and a walk in the seventh, both to Ray-Patrick Didder.
