Down On The Farm: Mason And Longoria Receive Honors
Montgomery 3, Carolina 2. Jonathon Barratt struck out 7 and only allowed 1 run in 6 innings. Dale Thayer gave up a solo home run in the 9th, but settled down to pick up his 13th save. Evan Longoria hit his 13th home run and Reid Brignac went 0-4.

Sarasota 7, Vero Beach 2. Jacob McGee was pounded for his second loss of the season. He gave up 6 runs in 5.2 innings. He allowed 8 hits including 3 home runs.

Columbus 1, Rome 0. Another strong performance from Jeremy Hellickson. He tossed 7 shutout innings to pick up his 3rd win of the year. Desmond Jennings stole his 23rd base of the season, good for 5th in the SAL.

NOTES FROM DOWN ON THE FARM...
  • We have heard of games being cancelled for lots of reasons. There was even a game once at the Astrodome that was rained out (nobody could get to the game because of flooding). But this the first time we ever heard of a game being postponed because the tea flight was cancelled, as the Bulls were last night. Since when do minor leaguers fly? Vince Naimoli would have never let that happen.
  • Evan Longoria was named the Southern League player of the month for May. In 28 games he hist .317 with 7 home runs and 25 RBI.
  • Chris Mason was named Southern League pitcher of the week for the second time.
