Here's MLB Pipeline's roundup of the top prospect performances in the Minor Leagues on Friday.
The White Sox farm system ranks among the best in baseball, and a pair of the organization's premier prospects began the weekend on a high note to show exactly why that's the case.
:: Complete prospect coverage ::
Blake Rutherford, the No. 83 overall prospect and No. 7 on the White Sox Top 30 list, and Gavin Sheets (Chicago's No. 11 prospect) combined to go 6-for-12 with two doubles, two RBIs and three runs scored to help Class A Advanced Winston Salem outslug Frederick, 12-10.
It marks the third multihit game in the past five contests for Rutherford, who is slashing .293/.330/.462 in his first season for the Dash. Sheets, 22, has been on a tear himself, racking up at least two base hits on four consecutive days, while extending his hitting streak to 13 games. Overall, Sheets is slashing .276/.364/.404.
The rest of the best performances from top prospects Friday:
• No. 8 overall prospect Bo Bichette (Blue Jays' No. 2) crushed his eighth homer of the season en route to a 3-for-4 night at the plate for Double-A New Hampshire. The 20-year-old shortstop also doubled, scored three runs and drove in two for the Fisher Cats to raise his OPS to .811.

• No. 12 overall prospect Royce Lewis (Twins' No. 1) posted a monster day in Class A Cedar Rapids' doubleheader, going 2-for-2 with a double, two RBIs and a stolen base in Game 1 before smacking a trio of doubles in the nightcap.
