Charlotte 12, Erie 4
Colby Lewis was rocked for 8 runs in only 2+ innings of work. Mike Hessman and Ryan Raburn each homered for the Mud Hens. Ryan Ludwick, Mike Hessman, and Kevin Hooper all reached base 3 times.
Erie 3, Harrisburg 2
Brent Clevlen hit his first homer and drew a walk. Garth McKinney also homered and Kody Kirkland added two hits. Preston Larrison pitched 6 innings and allowed two runs on 6 hits and a walk.
Lakeland 6, Dunedin 1
It was a good day for the prospect bats today. Clete Thomas homered, and Jeff Frazier, Jeff Larish, and Wilkin Ramirez all doubled. For Ramirez his double was one of 3 hits on the day. Kevin Ardoin struck out 3, walked 1, and allowed 5 hits – all singles – on his way to the win. Kevin Whelan came in and pitched a scoreless inning. However, Whelan allowed a 2 out walk. This is significant only because it is the first base runner he’s allowed this season, breaking his string at 13 batter faced.
West Michigan 4, Cedar Rapids 0
Another strong outing by Ramon Garcia who pitched 7 shutout innings. He walked two and struck out two. Cameron Maybin had triple and two singles, and Matt Joyce drew 3 walks.

Am I the only one who thinks Clevlen is going to be a 4-star player? I’m new to the site, so maybe there are plenty on the bandwagon, but I love the potential of this kid.
Yes Clevlen has a chance to be special. It took him two trips through the FSL to master the league but he still has a shot. He has the tools just needs to put it together.
He has been struggling a bit at the plate this season. Hopefully this will be the spark that gets him going.
