From the Notes
Quality over Quantity: Tonight's starter Frankie Montas notched his first quality start of the season in his last outing. The right-hander went six innings against Memphis and allowed one earned run on six hits in six innings. It was the first time Montas went at least six innings since August 21, 2015 while pitching in the White Sox organization with Double-A Birmingham.
Fowler to Oakland: The Athletics recalled outfielder Dustin Fowler this morning. Fowler was leading the Sounds in a number of offensive categories, including runs (18), hits (39), triples (3), RBI (16), total bases (61) and stolen bases (8).
GarcÃa Doubles Up: Outfielder Anthony GarcÃa had a pair of doubles last night to raise his total to seven on the season. It's the second time this year he has had at least two doubles in one game (April 9 at New Orleans). Slade Heathcott is the only other Sounds player to have multiple doubles in a game (3 - May 3 at Colorado Springs).
