Box Score
The Good: Mark Trumbo had a base knock and walk in four trips to the plate. He also stole his second base of the season. Hank Conger (.258) went 0-3 but he had the lone RBI on the night.
The Bad: The Bees managed just three hits as a team on the night (Quinlan, Trumbo and Colmenares). Will Smith got tagged pretty good, giving up four runs in on seven hits, including two home runs, in 5 1/3 innings of work. He did strike out the side in the first inning despite giving up three runs to the Round Rock club.
Noteworthy: The Mighty Q got a hit, a double….. for the Bees! Mike Scioscia’s favorite is hitting .222 for the Triple-A club.
