High A  San Jose Giants outscored the Bakersfield Blaze 6-5:

Rando Moreno SS- 2 for 4, Sac, SB(1).  BA= .222.
Dylan Davis DH- 2 for 5.  BA= .294.
Jonah Arenado 1B- 1 for 5, HR(15).  BA= .266.
TJ Bennett 2B- 3 for 3, 2B, HBP.  BA= .296.

Arenado has 3 hits, all HR's, in 13 AB over his last 3 games.  Another dichotomous start for Johnson as 7 of the 10 outs he recorded were by strikeouts, but he was also very hittable.

Short Season Salem-Keizer Volcanoes buried the Everett Aquasox 7-0:

Manuel Geraldo 3B- 2 for 4, SB(10).  BA= .299.
Kevin Rivera 2B- 2 for 4.  BA= .315.
Victor Concepcion RHP- 7 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 5.29.

Geraldo may well be in my top 30 Giants prospects right now.  Love the kid!  Rivera is moving up in the rankings too.  This was by far Concepcion's best start of a disappointing season.
