The Boston Red Sox drafted Trenton Kemp as a high school outfielder from California in the 15th round in 2014, and his bat has come along slowly, to say the least. He is repeating high-A in 2018 for Salem, and on Wednesday, he hit a home run in his 3rd straight game, though he was still hovering around .200 for a batting average.

Fort Myers’ Tyler Wells looks to continue his positive start to the season with a 2.58 ERA thus far on the season as he and his Miracle teammates host Palm Beach.
