Salt Lake Bees
Sunday's Box Score
The Good: Bobby Wilson went 3 for 3 and homered on Friday. Unfortunately, there's nothing else to report on "the good" for the Bees other than Terry Evans game on Saturday in which he went 3-5 with a triple, four RBI's, and two stolen bases.
The Bad: According to a scout at Sunday's game, Sean O'Sullivan has been tipping his pitches of late. He looked awful again on Sunday, giving up six runs on 11 hits in just 5 2/3 innings of work. Trevor Reckling was also shelled over the weekend, allowing eight runs (16 baserunners) in just 3 2/3 innings. Two of the Angels top prospects Hank Conger and Mark Trumbo went a combined 2-16 over the weekend.
Noteworthy: Southpaw prospect Will Smith will make his second start for the Salt Lake Bees tonight at home against the Dodgers Triple-A affiliate.

Flores (6 2/3 IP, 1 ER), Michael Anton (7 IP, 0 ER) and Tim Kiely (6 IP, 3 ER).
The Bad: Andrew Romine is hitting just .205 in his last ten games, including just one RBI and one extra base hit. Romine has been caught trying to steal six times out of 11 chances.

The Bad: Chris Scholl blew the game (his second blown save) and took the loss on Sunday after giving up two runs on four hits in an inning and a third of work. He did strikeout four.
Noteworthy: Ryan Chaffee took a step closer in the right direction on Sunday, giving up just four runs in six innings of work, lowering his ERA to 10.19 on the season. Chaffee has yet to notch a quality start in four starts for the Quakes this season.
