In conjunction with the Arizona Diamondbacks, the South Bend Silver Hawks have announced that pitchers Chase Anderson and Dan Taylor have been promoted to high-A Visalia. Also, pitcher Scott Allen has been added to the South Bend active roster from extended spring training.

Right-hander Anderson won the Midwest League Pitcher of the Week Award for the period covering May 3rd through May 9th and departs South Bend with a 2-4 record and a 2.82 ERA. His best outing came on Saturday, May 8th when he threw a seven inning complete game shutout against the Dayton Dragons in the first game of a doubleheader.

Left-hander Taylor, from nearby Jenison, Michigan, was 2-2 with a 3.69 ERA this season in seven starts for the Silver Hawks. He struck out 30 and walked only eight in his 39.0 innings on the mound.
