The Minor Leagues were full of big performances as top prospects flexed their "Dad energy" on Father's Day -- especially at the plate. The majority of Sunday's top performers came from big days at the dish, with a couple top pitching prospects enjoying fine outings as well.
Andrew Painter, RHP, Lehigh Valley (PHI No. 1/MLB No. 5)
Pitching on four days' rest for the first time in four years, Painter shrugged off a rough outing and posted zeros over five innings, scattering one hit and two walks while striking out six. It was an encouraging performance for the 22-year-old and only his second zero-run effort in seven starts at Triple-A. Gameday

Carson Williams, SS, Durham (TB No. 1/MLB No. 21)
If it's a Sunday in Triple-A, there is a good chance Carson Williams is going to leave the yard. That's certainly been the case of late -- his latest was a three-run dinger that traveled 416 feet, according to Statcast. It marked the third straight Sunday in which Williams went yard dating back to June 1. The 21-year-old has hit four homers in that span -- all in those Sunday games. Gameday
Owen Caissie, OF, Iowa (CHC No. 2/MLB No. 46)
Caissie's 11th homer of the season was a no-doubt moonshot, traveling 449 feet off the batter's eye in center field, according to Statcast. It was Caissie's fourth homer in his past seven games at Triple-A. He homered in three consecutive games to begin the week and is now slashing .263/.367/.512 overall. Gameday
Jesús Made, 2B/3B, Carolina (MIL No. 1/MLB No. 20)
The 18-year-old did a little bit of everything out of the leadoff spot -- doubling, singling and walking twice to reach base four times in five at-bats. Made has hit safely in seven of his last eight games and collected doubles in four of his past six. He's hitting .284 with a .826 OPS in 53 Single-A games overall. Gameday
Alex Freeland, SS, Oklahoma City (LAD No. 4/MLB No. 45)
Collecting his sixth three-hit game of the season, Freeland improved his OPS to .836 through 13 games this month at Triple-A. The switch-hitting infielder has seen a dip in extra-base hits, but he’s tallied seven knocks in the past four games for the Dodgers affiliate. While Freeland didn't log a walk in the series finale, he still has more free passes than strikeouts (17 to 14) in June. Gameday
Angel Genao, INF, Akron (CLE No. 4/MLB No. 52)
Genao's first homer of the season at Double-A came as part of a three-hit effort, his third consecutive multihit game. The 21-year-old missed most of the first two months of the season due to injury, and he only returned to Double-A Akron on June 6. But he's been white hot at the plate since returning, hitting .321/.345/.500 with four multihit games in seven contests overall. Gameday
Jadher Areinamo, INF, Wisconsin (MIL No. 23)
The 21-year-old second baseman used four hits to compile a career-high five RBIs for High-A Wisconsin. All five RBIs came in the sixth inning or later. The four hits were also a season high for Areinamo, who is slashing .289/.368/.451 with six homers and eight stolen bases through 62 games. Gameday
Hurston Waldrep, RHP, Gwinnett (ATL No. 2)
The 23-year-old wiggled out of a bases-loaded first-inning jam and was in control from there, retiring 10 of 13 at one point and throwing 66 of 92 pitches for strikes for Triple-A Gwinnett. Waldrep struck out six while matching a season high of six innings and allowing just one run for the first time since his season debut on April 1. Gameday
