Scranton (Lost to Pawtucket, 6-3)

Hitting .217 with nine walks in 18 games.
1B/OF Ramon Flores:  1-for-4, K
UTIL Zelous Wheeler: 1-for-4, RS, K
IF Scott Sizemore: 0-for-3, BB, 2 K
39 strikeouts in 93 AB, in case you are wondering why he is lingering around in the minors.

4.26 ERA; 50.2 IP, 57 H, 27 R, 24 ER, 3 HR, 19 BB, 37 K
Hard to imagine Gordon even briefly making a big league appearance this year; then again, it was hard to imagine Bruce Billings, Chris Leroux, and Alfredo Aceves.
RHP Branden Pinder:  1.2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, HR
21.2 IP, 11 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 22 K
------------------------------------------

LHP Ty Webb:  2 IP, 0 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 2 K

--------------------
Tampa (Defeated Palm Beach, 3-2)

SS Cito Culver: 3-for-3, 2B (6), RBI, RS, BB, SB (3)
I couldn't resist - had to put Culver on the top of the report, because it is so rare for him to compile one hit, never mind three of them.
CF Jake Cave:  2-for-4, RBI
Fifth consecutive multi-hit game (11-for-25)
3B Eric Jagielo:  1-for-4, RBI
6-game hitting streak.  
1B Greg Bird:  0-for-3, BB, 2 K
12-for-36 with seven walks and eight strikeouts.
2B Angelo Gumbs:  1-for-4, K
1B Matt Snyder:  0-for-4, K
4-for-18
UTIL Anderson Feliz:  0-for-3, BB
5-for-30

LHP Conner Kendrick (W, 1-1):  5 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 4 K
14.2 IP, 19 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 3 BB, 7 K.    His future (if he has one) is likely as a relief pitcher.
RHP Brett Gerritse (S, 1):  4 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 1 K
Old school save!  Seriously, after last night's 18 inning game, Tampa likely only had a few pitchers to really use today.    Has a 5.01 ERA in 32.1 innings with 18/11 K/BB ratio.
----------------------
Charleston

OF Aaron Judge:  3-for-4, 2B (5), RBI, RS
Back over .300 (.311).    It should be noted that although I think he should be promoted, he is only 11-for-51 in May.
3B Miguel Andujar:  2-for-4, RBI, K
SS Tyler Wade:  0-for-4, RS, K
2B Gosuke Katoh:  1-for-3, RS, BB, 2 K, CS (3)
Hitting .183 (10-for-13 stealing bases)
CF Brandon Thomas:  0-for-4, K
12-for-76.  
OF Michael O'Neill:  1-for-3, RBI, BB, K, CS (3)
1B Mike Ford:  1-for-4
CF Dustin Fowler:  0-for-4, 3 K
2014 (and full-season) debut for the 19-year old Fowler, drafted in the 18th round out of high school last year.  In the GCL, he hit .241/.274/.384 in 112 AB.   There is a lot of upside in Fowler, an athletic center fielder with good speed and, according to reports at least, a smooth left-handed swing.    

RHP Rookie Davis: 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K
First start in 10 days.   35.1 IP, 38 H, 22 R, 18 ER, 1 HR, 17 BB, 30 K
RHP Giovanny Gallegos (W, 1-3):  4 IP, 6 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K
2.97 ERA; 36.1 IP, 33 H, 17 R, 12 ER, 3 HR, 7 BB, 33 K
LHP Rony Bautista:  0.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 0 K
So much potential to be tapped into here.   But that is all it is right now.
RHP Cesar Vargas (S, 2):  1.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 1 K
1.66 ERA; 21.2 IP, 19 H, 5 R, 4 ER, 6 BB, 26 K
