Warner Madrigal struggled during his turn on the mound, giving up two runs that were charged to Feliz. Pedro Strop allowed four runs in the 10{+t}{+h} after the RedHawks tied the game 8-8. HAWKS GET 11 HITS
The RedHawks had 11 hits. Joaquin Arias went 3-for-6 with two runs. Esteban German went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBIs. VALLEJO ADDED
The Texas Rangers have promoted infielder Jose Vallejo to Oklahoma City. Vallejo, who started the season in Double-A Frisco, is a defensive ace, having been named the organization’s Minor League Defender of the Year in 2008. The 22-year-old switch hitter is the No. 18 prospect in Texas’ organization. Vallejo had a single in his first Triple-A game Sunday. TODAY AT THE BRICK
