News
- The Angels optioned Kendry Morales back to Salt Lake, and recalled Jason Bulger.
- Likely September callups for the Angels include Brandon Wood, Matt Brown, Terry Evans, Dee Brown, Ryan Budde, and Darren O'Day.
- Reggie Willits is on track to rejoin the Angels today.
- Tom Kotchman has left the Owlz to be with his wife Susan, who suffered a brain aneurysm earlier in the week. Orem will be co-managed by hitting coach Brent Del Chiaro and pitching coach Zeke Zimmermann; roving instructors will be brought in for hitting, fielding, and pitching at this time. It is unknown whether Kotchman will return this season. Tom's son and former Angel Casey has also been placed on MLB's bereavement list.
- The Dodgers are expected to call up A.J. Ellis and "perhaps" James McDonald when rosters expand. Blake DeWitt, Chin-Lung Hu, Eric Stults, and Jason Repko are also possibilities.
- A little late, but here's a MILB.com piece on the 66ers home fan base.
Scores
2008-08-23: Tucson 2, Salt Lake 6 #
Coon: 2-5
Wilson: 1-4, 1 RBI
Wood: 1-3, 1 HR, 3 RBI
Sandoval, F: 2-4, 1 2B, 2 RBI
Pavkovich: 2-4, 1 3B, 1 K
Evans: 1-4, 1 2B, 1 K
Patchett: 0-2, 2 BB, 1 K
Green: (W, 8-7), 7.0 IP, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 H, 6 K, 2 BB, 5.13 ERA
Bootcheck: 1.0 IP, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 H, 0 K, 1 BB, 2.92 ERA
O'Day: 1.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 3.41 ERA
Tucson got a first-inning run with a whole lot of activity (including a wild pitch and an error) but Nick Green pitched out of trouble. Brandon Wood ripped his 30th homer in the bottom of the first, a two-out, two-run shot that instantly gave the Bees a lead they wouldn't relinquish. Wood got another RBI in the four-run seventh when he was hit by a Connor Robertson pitch with the bases loaded; the highlight of the inning was Freddy Sandoval's subsequent two-run double. That put the game away, and Chris Bootcheck and Darren O'Day closed it out, Bootcheck giving up a single run in the top of the eighth but that was all.

2008-08-23: Arkansas 8, Springfield 16 #
Czarniecki: 2-4, 2 2B, 1 RBI, 1 BB
Stavisky: 2-4, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 BB

Browning: 0.2 IP, 5 R, 5 ER, 5 H, 1 K, 1 BB, 6.26 ERA
Mark Trumbo walking? Well, he seems to be making some progress on that front, as this is his fifth free pass in the last week; he had two in the entire time since joining Arkansas prior to that (7/28 through 8/17).

An emergency start by Doug Brandt (filling in for the injured Dan Denham) turned into a disaster early, as he gave up six runs in the first; he hurt his own cause by hitting the second batter he saw, Daniel Descalso, and surrendered a homer to Brett Wallace, Wallace's first of the year. He wasn't helped when Mark Trumbo made a fielding error, but it turned out to be harmless as he got Descalso the second time around (in the same inning!) to bounce into a double play.
Adam Morrissey homered in the top of the ninth with Trumbo aboard, a meaningless two-out shot late in a runaway game.
2008-08-23: Rancho Cucamonga 5, Inland Empire 6 #
Willits: 1-5
Mount: 2-5, 2 K
Conger: 1-5, 2 RBI
Navarro: 2-5
Bourjos: 2-4, 1 2B, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 1 K
Phillips: 0-3, 2 K
Towns: (L, 1-4), 6.0 IP, 5 R, 5 ER, 8 H, 4 K, 1 BB, 1 HR, 5.49 ERA
Back to the Angels versus Dodgers thingy in the Cal League, where both Rancho and Inland Empire are swimming upstream to get to the postseason. Rancho finished the day 2.5 games back of South division leader Lancaster, and Inland Empire 4.5 games back... neither team faces Lancaster again this season, but both face each other five more games. Meanwhile, Lancaster has a light-ish schedule the rest of the way, facing two more with .500-ish (three games above) Modesto, sub-.500 Stockton for four, but North division-leading San Jose (37-25) for the last three.

Rancho took a 4-2 lead in the third, capped by Larry Infante's RBI double that cashed in Hank Conger and Efren Navarro. The 66ers clawed back one and two runs at a time, getting the go-ahead run in the sixth on a Jaime Pedroza double and Scott Van Slyke's RBI single; they posted an important insurance run in the seventh on Andrew Locke's scoring groundout.
The Quakes came back in the ninth with a single run on Hank Conger's scoring one-out groundout that left Reggie Willits on third, but Navarro flied out to end the threat.

Thorne: (S, 6), 1.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 H, 1 K, 2 BB, 0.39 ERA
The unstoppable Brian Boshers? Well, not really; he's also got five no-decisions, one of which in which he didn't even make a single out. Nevertheless, a nice game from him, if only his second quality start of the year.

Roberto Lopez hit a three-run jack that made Casper pay for hitting Ivan Contreras. That gave the Owlz a lead they held on to for the balance of the game, extending it with single runs in the fourth and seventh, both helped out by stolen bases by Tyson Auer and Delta Cleary later converted into runs.

The 51's couldn't hold on to a 6-1 lead they got following a four-run sixth featuring doubles by Blake DeWitt and Angel Chavez, as the Sky Sox answered with four of their own in the bottom of the seventh against reliever Greg Miller; one of those runs was unearned thanks to a fielding error by DeWitt. Miller also allowed a scoring wild pitch and two walks. Yhency Brazoban got a blown save in the eighth when he allowed a leadoff homer to Joe Koshansky, his 29th of the season; Dwayne Pollok took the loss after he gave up three consecutive singles in the 10th.
