Tong, Wenninger Shine in Triple-A

0:00On April 8th, Metz Prospect, Jonah Tong, bounced back strong in triple A for Syracuse, striking out seven over five innings against Buffalo, despite in in areas. Early two run hiccup. He gave up those runs on one hit and two walks right away, but then shut down the bison's retiring 13 straight batters to close out his start-in. A tight four-to-three loss that wrapped a double header. Tong leaned heavy on his fastball at 59 percent, watching his velocity climb to 96.2 miles per hour by the fifth, and mixed in. A new cutter that fooled right handers with whiffs and called strikes. Shifting to the first game of the twin bill, fellow Prospect Jack Winninger struck out five and four point one innings, allowing two runs, one earned. On three hits and three walks in a two-nothing defeat. Both righty show promise. Tong with a 5.06 ERA, over 10.2 innings, and Winninger holding a sharp 1.00 mark. Through nine as the Metz Top Prospects keep building toward the big leagues.
