Jarred Kelenic (Kingsport 2018) and Patrick Weigel (Danville 2015) had standout performances Wednesday.

Mariners CF Jarred Kelenic , Class West Virginia: 2-for-4, 2B, BB -- Seattle's second-ranked prospect keeps putting on a hitting clinic in the South Atlantic League. Kelenic doubled and singled to up his hitting streak to 16 games for West Virginia. He's seventh on the circuit with a .344 average and third with a 1.060 OPS.
Braves RHP Patrick Weigel , Double-A Mississippi: 3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4K -- Atlanta's No. 19 prospect threw three hitless innings in the M-Braves' 2-0 win over Jacksonville. The 6-foot-6 California native plunked Joe Dunand in the second, but he was the only Jumbo Shrimp to reach against the 24-year-old. Weigel threw 36 pitches and lowered his ERA to 1.93 in five abbreviated Southern League starts. Braves No. 4 prospect Cristian Pache and eighth-ranked Drew Waters  had two hits apiece for Mississippi.
