Coleman Crow picked up the only win in a five-inning relief appearance, allowing three runs and striking out seven. Logan Henderson went 3 1/3 scoreless innings in his outing, and Garrett Stallings allowed one run across five innings in a pair of appearances.

**Single-A Wilson Warbirds (3-6)**

Record this week: 1-5 **Standout performances:** José Anderson: 5-for-22, HR, 3 2Bs, 6 RBIs, 3 Rs, SB, 5 BBs Jarrette Bonet: 5 IP, 0 ERs, 3 Hs, 2 BBs, HBP, 5 Ks Miqueas Mercedes: 4 1/3 IP, 1 ER, 5 Hs, 3 BBs, 4 Ks The Warbirds struggled against Salem this week, as they dropped five of six and were outscored 42-19 in the series. They now sit at 3-6 on the season, though they’ll head to Wilson, North Carolina for their inaugural home game later today. It was another rough week offensively for Wilson, as José Anderson was one of the few bright spots, slugging the team’s only homer to go with three doubles as drove in six. Jadyn Fielder went 2-for-8 with a pair of steals, and no other player with at least five at-bats finished the week with an OPS over .700.

NO WAY JOSE.#TakeFlight#WelcomeToWilsonpic.twitter.com/To6Tj0BGNk

— Wilson Warbirds (@wilsonwarbirds) April 12, 2026 The pitching staff didn’t fare much better, but Jarrette Bonet was a bright spot for the Warbirds. Bonet went five scoreless innings in the team’s only win this week, allowing three hits and a pair of walks while striking out five. Joshua Quezada went 2 1/3 scoreless innings with four strikeouts in two relief appearances this week, and Miqueas Mercedes had a solid outing, going 4 1/3 innings with one run allowed and four strikeouts. *Next week’s opponent: vs. Hill City Howlers (Cleveland Guardians)*

**Player of the Week**

There are a few standout choices here, including a few top prospects in Jesús Made, Luis Peña, Luis Lara, and Blake Burke. After Adam gave it to Lara a week ago, I’ll give it Peña this time around. Peña hit .526/.565/.684 this week, leading the Rattlers with 10 hits, including a double and a triple. He brought home six and scored six runs of his own while also going a perfect 3-for-3 on stolen base attempts. Not a bad start to the season for MLB’s No. 23 prospect.

.@Brewers No. 2 Prospect Luis Peña extends the lead with a two-RBI triple! 💥💥💥

**Play of the Week**

José Anderson, one of the only bright spots for the Low-A Wilson Warbirds this week, had a sick swim move to get into second safely with a double and, more importantly, allow a run to score.
