For the second time in his career, Tyler O'Neill is in the 30 home run club.
O'Neill, the Cardinals' No. 4 prospect and No. 96 on MLBPipeline.com's Top 100 Prospects list, blasted his 30th homer of the season on Saturday as Triple-A Memphis fell to Colorado Springs, 14-11. He finished with four RBIs and two runs scored, going 3-for-5 at the plate.

The odds seemed to be against O'Neill reaching 30 homers this season after he went deep six times in his first 69 games with Triple-A Tacoma. But the 22-year-old found his power stroke in late in June -- beginning with a two-homer, seven-RBI performance on June 23 -- and reemerged as one of the more consistent sluggers in the Minors during the second half, totaling 24 home runs over 59 games despite being dealt from Seattle to the Cardinals for Marco Gonzales at the Trade Deadline.
With Saturday's performance, O'Neill now has hit 11 homers in 35 games with Memphis while slashing .244/.300/.541. Altogether, he's produced a .244/.321/.496 line across 128 games.
O'Neill previously achieved the 30-homer mark in 2015, when he went deep 32 times in 106 games for Class A Advanced Bakersfield in the California League. He followed it by hitting 24 homers in 2016, spending the entire season at the Double-A level.
For his career, O'Neill has homered 100 times in 453 games.
The rest of the best performances from top prospects Saturday
• No. 42 overall prospect Juan Soto (Nationals' No. 2) tallied a career-high five hits, including a triple and a double, in a 5-for-5, three-RBI day at the plate while playing in a Rookie Gulf Coast League rehab game. The 18-year-old outfielder has been beset by injuries this season, as he missed two months with an ankle injury early in the year before suffering a broken hamate in his hand upon returning in early July. When healthy, Soto produced a stellar .360/.427/.523 line in 23 games with Class A Hagerstown.
• No. 58 overall prospectFernando Tatis Jr. (Padres' No. 4) collected a career-high four hits, going 4-for-5 with two RBIs in Double-A San Antonio's win over Corpus Christi. The 18-year-old shortstop has hit safely in six straight games for the Missions after he went 2-for-17 at the plate in his first five contests following a promotion to Double-A. He's batting .278 on the season with 22 homers, 27 doubles and 32 steals in 127 games.

Pacing Bowie on the mound was right-hander Yefry Ramirez (No. 23), who racked up nine strikeouts over seven scoreless innings while allowing three hits and one walk.
• Astros No. 22 prospect Jorge Alcala went the distance as he recorded his first career shutout in Game 1 of Class A Advanced Buies Creek's doubleheader versus Down East. Working a season-high seven innings, the 22-year-old right-hander struck out four and allowed just two hits en route to facing one over the minimum in the outing.
