Minors Report 4/29/11 (Andrew Brackman Effectively Wild; Dellin Betances Returns; Chase Whitley; Slade Heathcott is Amazing; Ramon Flores; Nik Turley)

Scranton: Scranton lost to Charlotte tonight, 6-5. However, I don’t have too much information on what exactly happened in the game (darn boxscores!) Andrew Brackman pitched and threw six innings, allowing three runs on three hits. However, he walked five and uncorked two wild pitches….I believe he also hit at least one batter. On the
