Pirates Prospect Watch: How The Indianapolis Indians Scored 19(!) Runs

On Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League scored 20 points in their 20-20 tie against the Houston Texans.

Also on Sunday, the Triple-A Indianapolis Indians scored just one less tally than the team they share a city with, finishing with 19 runs in its win over the Omaha Storm Chasers.

The Indians racked up 17 hits, leading to a big day at the plate for many in the lineup.

Here is a rundown of the top performers from Indianapolis and Double-A Altoona. High-A Greensboro and Low-A Bradenton both had their games postponed.

Indianapolis Indians (70-64)

3B Kevin Padlo

• Game: 3 for 3 with two doubles, two RBIs, three runs and three walks

• Game: 2 for 4 with a double, three RBIs, a run and a walk

That’s right. In the Indians’ 19-9 win over the Storm Chasers, Padlo was on base in all six of his plate appearances. Sabol, on the other hand, continued his torrid start to his Triple-A career. Brendt Citta, who pinch hit for Sabol late in the game, homered in his only at-bat.
