Carson Benge Stays Hot on Wednesday
Carson Benge continued to swing a hot bat on Wednesday evening during their contest against Double-A Altoona. In this contest, the No. 3-ranked prospect in the New York system on MLB.com went 2-for-3 with a double and a home run. He tallied two RBI and drew a walk. On Tuesday, Benge tallied three hits, three RBI, and added a double. The 22-year-old opened the campaign with High-A Brooklyn but needed just 60 games to prove he was ready to join Double-A. At High-A, the former 19th overall pick in last year's MLB Draft posted a .304/.417/.480 slash line with 18 doubles and four home runs. Through his first 12 games with Double-A, Benge has been quite impressive, posting a .325/.460/.550 slash line with three doubles and two home runs. Given his impressive production, Benge could be in the mix to reach the major leagues next season.
