Minor League Scorebook
News
- Dustin Moseley has been demoted to the bullpen, and a minor league pitcher, either Nick Green or Nick Adenhart, will be called up to take his rotation spot from AAA Salt Lake. Adenhart is 4-0 in five starts this year with a 0.87 ERA; Green is 2-0 with a 3.41 ERA, and would be pitching on his regular start day Thursday.
- John Lackey's rehab start got briefly put on hold thanks to a bank of lights that failed. He completed the simulated game with some lights out, throwing 34 pitches in the game, and 26 more in a simulated game.
- The Angels recalled INF Matt Brown and demoted Bobby Wilson to AAA.
- Jonathan Broxton only has a strain and is day-to-day; no callup required.
- Andy LaRoche was promoted to AAA Las Vegas and made his first appearance of the year there. (But see below...)
Scores
2008-04-29: Salt Lake 9, Memphis 7 #
Willits: 2-5, 1 2B, 1 BB
Coon: 3-4, 1 BB, 1 K
Morales: 2-5, 1 HR, 3 RBI, 1 K
Brown, M: 2-5, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 K
Rodriguez, S: 1-4, 1 2B, 1 BB, 2 K
Evans: 4-4, 2 2B, 1 RBI, 1 BB
Thompson: 0.0 IP, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 H, 0 K, 3 BB, 5.14 ERA
Bulger: (BS, 1)(W, 2-0) (in relief), 2.0 IP, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 H, 4 K, 1 BB, 1.80 ERA
Arredondo: (S, 8), 1.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 H, 0 K, 0 BB, 1.64 ERA
A really shabby game in which the Bees mounted a 7-1 lead after five, but Rich Thompson and Jason Bulger craptastically turned it into a 7-6 game; Joe Mather tied it with a check-swing double in the eighth against Bulger, who astonishingly only took one run for all the inherited runners he allowed to score. Even more annoying, he got to be the winner when a wild pitch by Mark Worrell in Ryan Budde's at-bat allowed Dee Brown to score.

2008-04-29: Tulsa 2, Arkansas 4 #
Statia: 0-4
Johnson: 3-4, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Czarniecki: 2-2, 2 2B, 2 BB
Duff: 2-4, 1 RBI, 1 K
Mosebach: (W, 3-1), 7.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 6 H, 6 K, 2 BB, 3.64 ERA
Jepsen: 2.0 IP, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 H, 4 K, 1 BB, 2.51 ERA
Trying to prove that the previous sweep of the Travs by the Naturals doesn't make them the worst team in the Texas League, Arkansas bounced back to beat the Drillers despite an "insane base-running philosophy" (according to Travelerocity). The Travs won this one the old-fashioned, Earl Weaver way, with half the runs scoring on long balls (a two-run jack in the first by Ben Johnson), and a rally started on Jordan Czarniecki's leadoff double in the seventh.

2008-04-29: Rancho Cucamonga 5, Lancaster 3 #
Bourjos: 2-5, 1 3B, 2 RBI, 2 K
Walker: 2-3, 1 BB
Trumbo: 2-4, 1 HR, 2 RBI
Phillips: 0-3
Lackey: 3.0 IP, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 H, 2 K, 1 BB, 3.60 ERA
O'Sullivan: (W, 3-2) (in relief), 4.0 IP, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 H, 1 K, 2 BB, 5.60 ERA
Browning: (S, 3), 2.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 H, 3 K, 0 BB, 3.07 ERA
See above for Lackey's interrupted rehab start; Sean O'Sullivan went four more and got the win. Don't look now, but Mark Trumbo might be turning into a useful offensive player: with the two-run homer he got in today's game, he's now sporting a .296/.355/.541 line with five dingers and maybe more importantly, nine walks. He's also pacing the club with 17 RBIs. Pretty good for a guy who almost fell off the BA rankings this year (29th overall).

Jimenez: (W, 1-1) (in relief), 4.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 3 H, 4 K, 1 BB, 4.15 ERA
Clay Fuller's solo dinger broke a 5-5 tie in the top of the 14th, and gave reliever Esmerlin Jimenez his first win of the season. Mason Tobin pitched a quality start plus.

Pollok: (W, 2-0) (in relief), 5.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 H, 3 K, 0 BB, 1.93 ERA
Incredibly, this was merely an 8-5 game going into the ninth when the 51's plated ten men, including a bases-loaded walk by John-Ford Griffin (always one of my most favorite ways to humiliate the opposition), and a pair of doubles. Xavier Paul homered twice in this contest, both leadoff shots, in the third and fifth innings.

Justin Orenduff didn't get past the third, so Dwayne Pollok obliged for five frames and picked up the win along the way.
Update: berkowi28 points out that this was Andy LaRoche's first appearance at AAA this year, and somehow he managed to go 0-for-3; he was replaced by a pinch hitter in the seventh.
