Minor League Scorebook
News
- The Angels released OF Aaron Peel, who was trying to rehab from a broken clavicle. Cody Fuller was reassigned to Rancho Cucamonga, and INF Adam Morissey returned from a stint with Salt Lake.
- The Dodgers signed former Baltimore Orioles pitcher Eric DuBose to a minor league contract and assigned him to AA Jacksonville.
- Stephen Smith writes that the Angels have changed Brandon Wood's batting stance to lower his hands to give him better plate coverage, and that this is what has fueled his late offensive surge.

Bulger: (S, 14), 2.0 IP, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 H, 4 K, 2 BB, 0.75 ERA
The Bees answered an early 2-0 lead from Iowa with four of their own in the top of the second, only to have the lead change again in the bottom of the frame when emergency starter David Austen gave up extra-base hits a-plenty, including a double, a triple, and a two-run homer that chased him as soon as he made the last out of the inning. But the Bees' bullpen held the I-Cubs to one run through the rest of the way.

A four-run seventh that included two-run homers by Kendry Morales and Dee Brown pushed Salt Lake over the top. Jason Bulger pitched the last two innings of the game, giving up a two-out run in a busy ninth; it was the first run Bulger had allowed since May 8.

Anton: (L, 3-5), 6.0 IP, 3 R, 3 ER, 7 H, 4 K, 3 BB, 5.87 ERA
Mike Napoli returned to the dish in his rehab stint in a futile effort for the Quakes, who collectively stranded eight baserunners on Victor Garate's fine outing. It was Garate's first win in his third start for Inland Empire.
Mount: 1-4, 1 2B, 1 K

Mike Napoli returned to the dish in his rehab stint in a futile effort for the Quakes, who collectively stranded eight baserunners on Victor Garate's fine outing. It was Garate's first win in his third start for Inland Empire.
Trayvon Robinson and Matt Berezay drove in two runs off Michael Anton in the first, which was all the 66ers needed. Inland Empire picked up another in the seventh by cashing in Thomas Giles' leadoff walk with a Jaime Pedroza double, scoring him from first. The 66ers would have gotten more, but with men on the corners, Esteban Lopez grounded into an unusual 2-6-3 triple play to end the inning, the second at home against Inland Empire this year. It's not clear how that would have worked because there was no force at the plate; the game recap says the following:
Esteban Lopez grounds into a triple play, catcher Mike Napoli to shortstop P. J. Phillips to first baseman Efren Navarro. Justin Fuller out at home. Christian Lara out at 3rd.Fortunately, the Marshall Law blog clarifies: the play actually went 3-2-5-2-6:
On Tuesday at the Epicenter, Sixer Esteban Lopez hit into a 3-2-5-2-6 triple play. Lopez was out at first, then Justin Fuller was out between third and home and then Christian Lara was out trying to go from first to third on the play. Lara's baserunning blunder turned what should've been a double play into a triple play.

McKiernan: (S, 16), 1.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 H, 0 K, 0 BB, 4.21 ERA
Cedar Rapids took a 1-0 lead in the fourth on Julio Perez's single followed up by a balk and a steal of third, and Jeremy Moore's sac fly. The Kernels held it the rest of the way, adding two more runs in the fifth. Robert Fish pitched his best game since May 22, seven shutout innings with six strikeouts; it was his first win since June 22.

Three home runs by Roberto Lopez, Donato Giovanatto, and Angel Castillo helped power the Owlz to a sweep; oddly, Orem has yet to beat the Ghosts at home (0-5), while they are 5-1 against them on the road. Baron Short got the win in relief.

Crawford: 2-2, 2 RBI, 1 BB
Correa: (W, 5-0), 7.0 IP, 3 R, 2 ER, 7 H, 6 K, 1 BB, 1 HR, 1.88 ERA
The Angels sent 13 men to the plate in the nine-run fifth that included a pair of fielding errors by Rangers shortstop Leury Garcia, a scoring wild pitch by Hector Nelo that sent David Golliner home, and a bases-loaded walk by Matthew Crawford. That was pretty much the game offensively; starter Manuarys Correa picked up the win in his second quality start in a row.

Pollok: (BS, 3)(W, 9-3) (in relief), 2.0 IP, 4 R, 3 ER, 7 H, 1 K, 1 BB, 1 HR, 4.63 ERA
The 51's put it to New Orleans tonight, getting homers from Mitch Jones, and improbably, Eric Stults, who pitched well enough to get the win but was let down by his bullpen. Dwayne Pollok replaced Stults to start the sixth, and gave up four that inning including three on a Gustavo Molina home run. Blake DeWitt hurt the team with a "caught stealing error", whatever that is, when Chris Aguila tried to take second on what looks like an attempt at a strike-'em-out, throw-'em-out double play failed at the second part. Fortunately for Pollok, his offense pulled through and he ended up getting the win in relief. Eduardo Sierra pitched scoreless eighth and ninth innings to finish the game in his third appearance for Las Vegas.
