Ka’ai Tom, LF, Indians. Tom drove in three runs for Triple-A Columbus in game one of the International League finals against Durham. After teammate Bobby Bradley hit a three-run jack in the first inning, Durham answered with two runs in the top of the fourth inning. Tom answered back with a three-run homer run in the fourth inning which put Columbus ahead for good. The outfielder has been hitting well in the playoffs, recording eight hits in four games against Triple-A Gwinnett in the league semifinals.

Matthew Allan, RHP, Mets. Allan tossed three hitless innings for short-season Brooklyn as they took home the New York-Penn League title. It was Allan’s second scoreless playoff outing. In what was a 2-2 game, Allan came on in relief and blanked Lowell’s hitters for three frames. He also recorded two strikeouts before making his exit in the seventh inning. Lowell immediately scored following his exit, but Brooklyn rallied in the bottom of the seventh inning to pull away for good.

Taylor Trammell, OF, Padres. Trammell was the leadoff hitter for Double-A Amarillo against Tulsa during game one of the Texas League finals. He had a base hit in the third inning and came around to score, followed by a two-run single in the fourth inning. The outfielder has been hitting well as of late, as this was his third multi-hit performance over his last four games.

Seth Beer, 1B, Diamondbacks. Beer had three hits in five at-bats for Double-A Jackson against Biloxi. He collected a pair of base hits and came around to score once. In the seventh inning, he smacked an RBI double. It was an encouraging performance, as Beer has hit just .205/.297/.318 with eight extra-base hits in 24 games since coming over to Arizona at the trade deadline.
