Peoria 8 South Bend 6 - Ryan Norwood went 3-4 with his 12th HR of the year and Ryne Malone went 2-4 and continues hit. Norwood is now hitting 320/355/477 for Peoria, but needs to advance a level and continue to hit to earn prospect status.

Boise 4 Everett 0 - Jeff Samardzija (1-1) pitched 5 shutout innings to earn his first professional win giving up 3 hits, 2 walks, and striking out 4.

Cubs first rounder, Tyler Colvin, went 0-4 lowering his batting average to .232.
Notes: Cubs' 9th round and 14th round picks are struggling mightily for the AZL Cubs so far. Ninth round pick, Cliff Anderson is hitting .167 with 22 strikeouts in 54 at-bats, while 14th round pick, Drew Rundle now hitting .143 has struck out 14 times in 21 at-bats; With Ryan Harvey tearing the cover off the ball, Harvey made an appearance on Baseball America's Prospect Hot Sheet.
