- Jarrod Cande (3-0) was anything but sweet to Canadians hitters. The right-hander out of Florida Southern allowed just one earned run and five hits over seven frames to lower his ERA to 3.68.
- We adore Amador! Spokane's star infielder Adael Amador put the game out of reach with a bases-clearing double in the sixth and now has reached base 11 times over his last four games. The 20-year-old switch-hitter is batting .322 (29-for-90) in May with six home runs and 20 RBI.
- Nic Kent got the scoring started with a home run in the third inning and has now hit safely in nine of his last 10 games.
