Cal League Condensed: 7/7 Preview

Inland Empire 66ers v. Lake Elsinore Storm 6:05 PM PT
Will Savage v. TBA
Notes: Will Savage has made two starts with Inland Empire, both against High Desert... Savage allowed two runs in seven innings in the first and seven runs in 5.2 IP in the second... This should be Eric Gonzalez' turn in the rotation, but he recently pitched in the relief... I see no obvious starter right now... Game will be available on 1050 AM in Inland Empire and 92.9 FM in Lake Elsinore as well as www.kcaaradio.com and www.milb.com...

Rancho Cucamonga Quakes v. Lancaster JetHawks 7:00 PM PT
Orangel Arenas v. Dallas Keuchel
Notes: Orangel Arenas has 23 walks and 23 strikeouts in 31.2 IP with Rancho Cucamonga... Arenas has one quality start out of his six with the Quakes... Dallas Keuchel was removed from his last start one out away from a complete game and ended up being charged with the loss... Keuchel has allowed three or fewer earned runs in eight of his last nine starts... Game will be available on 1510 AM in Rancho Cucamonga and 1380 AM in Lancaster as well as www.jethawks.com and www.milb.com...

San Jose Giants v. Stockton Ports 7:05 PM PT
Eric Surkamp v. Shawn Haviland
Notes: Eric Surkamp allowed two earned runs in seven innings in his last start against Lancaster... Surkamp has fewer decisions than every other starter in the league with 10 or more starts... Shawn Haviland was charged with 14 runs in his last two starts but only four have been earned... Those two starts lasted a combined 7.1 IP... Game will be available on 1280 AM in Stockton as well as www.sjgiants.com and www.milb.com...

Visalia Rawhide v. High Desert Mavericks 7:05 PM PT
Charles Brewer v. Maikel Cleto
Notes: Charles Brewer allowed two runs in 8.1 IP and struck out eight in his last start... Brewer has 10 strikeouts to two walks in 11.1 Cal League innings... Maikel Cleto pitched six scoreless innings in his last start but only struck out two... Cleto averages less than four innings a start... Game will be available on 1270 AM in Visalia and 960 AM in High Desert as well as www.milb.com...

Modesto Nuts v. Bakersfield Blaze 7:45 PM PT
Ethan Hollingsworth v. TBA
Notes: Ethan Hollingsworth has allowed 10 earned runs in 11.2 IP since the All Star break... His last start was against Bakersfield, and Hollingworth allowed three earned runs in 6.1 IP... This would be Michael Schlact's turn in the rotation, but he was promoted to AA Frisco... Kennil Gomez could return from the bullpen, but he just pitched on July 4th... Game will be available on 970 AM in Modesto as well as www.milb.com...

EDIT: Schlact being promoted was obviously bad info because he's starting tonight. Sorry for this mistake.
