Hunter Barco has taken quite a few lumps since getting to Triple-A Indianapolis, but he put together a dominant week. 

In two starts, the left-handed Barco combined to allow one run on six hits, walking one, and striking out 13 over 12 innings pitched.

He tossed six shutout innings last Tuesday, striking out six, picking up the win against Omaha.

Then on Sunday, he took a no-hitter into the sixth inning before giving up a solo home run. That was the only hit he allowed, and he didn't issue a walk (did hit a batter) while striking out seven.

Barco, 24, has made eight starts for Indianapolis this season, posting a 3.69 with 40 strikeouts in 31 2/3 innings pitched.
