Fresno outlasted Salt Lake City, 13-12 in a game that featured 32 hits, 29 strikeouts, and six errors over four hours and five minutes. J.J. Hoover came off the I.L. to make the start and was pounded for six runs on five hits and a walk over four innings. Bryan Bonnell was credited with the win with three innings thrown and two runs let in on five hits, both on the longball. James Bourque was summoned with the bases loaded and nobody out and gave up a bases-clearing double before striking out three of the next four batters (he hit the one he didn’t whiff). Carter Kieboom led the Grizzlies hit column with four hits, followed by José “Orange” Marmolejos, who was a double shy of the cycle and drove in four.
Roster moves: RHP J.J. Hoover, C Taylor Gushue activated from the 7-Day I.L; RHP Bryan Bonnell reassigned from Harrisburg; RHP Kyle McGowin recalled to Washington; RHP Joan Baez reassigned from Harrisburg;.

Tim Cate made his first start at A+ but turned in a D- outing as he was strafed for five runs on seven hits and two walks over four innings. The P-Nats were just 3-for-17 with RISP and left on 10 baserunners.

He gave up four runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out four over four and 2/3rds innings. Cody Wilson reached base three times with two singles and a walk as the Suns were limited to six hits, with just one coming in eight RISP opportunities.

Mahoning Valley dismantled Auburn for six runs in the 1st and two in the 2nd as they cruised to an 8-4 win. 18-y.o. Pedro Gonzalez took the brunt of the beating as he walked four and gave up three hits for six runs in just 2/3rds of an innings to lose for the second time in as many starts. The Doubledays squeezed four runs out of five hits and five walks but struck out 13 times. Jake Alu and Ricardo Mendez were the only two batters to reach base twice, both with a single and a walk.
