First, Guardians prospects beat Angels prospects 4-2. Wuilfredo Antunez (homered! ) and Dauri Fernandez stood out on the hitting side, and Cooper Ingle made some nice plays behind the plate and took two walks.

Guardians pitching – Yorman Gomez, Josh Hartle, Joey Oakie, Braylon Doughty and Magnus Ellerts all looked good (Doughty got Arizona’d for two runs). Oakie was sitting 99 mph with his fastball! Then, the major league Guardians beat the Royals 6-5.

Jose Ramirez came back and immediately homered. Kyle Manzardo homered and David Fry and Gabriel Arias each doubled. Parker Messick had a rough night but still struck out 4, and Tim Herrin looked good again.
