• Salt Lake: Michael Kohn (3.31) is pitching a lot better of late and on Monday he notched his third save since his demotion to Salt Lake with a perfect ninth. Tyson Auer (.285) whacked three hits and stole his 13th base, though he was picked off first base and was caught stealing (5) at second. Auer even gunned out Brian Dopirak at 2nd base, his fifth outfield assist.
• Arkansas: The two notable performances were from Mike Trout (.307) who went 2 for 5 with a triple and reliever Chris Scholl (1.59) who pitched two scoreless innings. Trevor Reckling (0-5, 3.63) got tagged for six runs on nine hits, he walked three and gave up a home run. Relievers Steven Geltz (3.46) and Loek Van Mil (5.40) gave up three runs a piece.
• Inland Empire: AngelsWin.com's own David Saltzer was in attendance on Monday and witnessed their 3-4-5 hitters (Michael Wing, Casey Haerther and Cole Calhoun) hit back-to-back-to-back home runs in the first inning. Each of the the three sluggers also had three hits a piece on the night (more from David later who covered the game from the press box). Kyle Hurst (3.22) pitched six scoreless innings, striking out four. The 66'ers won the game 7-1.
• Cedar Rapids: No scheduled game on Monday in the Midwest League.
