Down on the farm: Michael Kopech struggles again

He continues to build back up

A recap of Tuesday’s minor league action.

Oklahoma City Comets

• The Comets dropped the series opener, falling to the River Cats, 11-5.

• Michael Chavis (2B) hit his eighth homer of the season.

• Esteury Ruiz (RF) had two hits and drove in a run.

• It was a rough outing for Justin Jarvis (RHP) as he allowed eight runs in only 2.1 innings of work.

• Michael Kopech made another rehab appearance. Once again, he struggled. He failed to make it out of the inning as he recorded only two outs. He allowed two runs on three hits and issued a walk. In four outings, he’s only gone a combined 2.1 innings. He’s allowed 10 runs on six hits with seven walks….. not great! He’ll make a couple more appearances before being activated by the Dodgers.
