Dodgers RHP Dustin May, Double-A Tulsa: 5.0 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 HB, 1 BB, 7 K -- The Dodgers' No. 2 prospect picked up his second win of the season in the Drillers' 5-0 blanking of Corpus Christi. May (2-1) needed all of 11 pitches to get through a 1-2-3 first inning, then worked around a leadoff walk in the second by retiring the next three batters. The 21-year-old right-hander hit Chuckie Robinson in the third and allowed a single to Stephen Wrenn but fanned Osvaldo Duarte, Ronnie Dawson and Abraham Toro to escape unscathed. He faced the minimum in the fourth, despite allowing a single to Joshua Rojas, who was thrown out trying to steal third base by top Dodgers prospect Keibert Ruiz. And despite two singles by the Hooks in the fifth, May did not allow a run for the third time in five starts this season. He's second in the Texas League with a 1.50 ERA. Gameday box score
Orioles 3B Ryan Mountcastle, Triple-A Norfolk: 3-for-5, 2B, R -- The Orioles' second-ranked prospect singled to right field and scored in the Tides' six-run first inning, which set the tone in a 7-1 win over Louisville.

Royals RHP Brady Singer, Class A Advanced Wilmington: 6.0 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 1 HB, 2 BB, 5 K -- The top Royals prospect worked in and out of trouble more than a few times in the Blue Rocks' 6-2 win over Lynchburg. In the first inning, Singer surrendered hits to the first two batters before a double play helped ease the situation. An error by third baseman Oscar Gonzalez allowed a run to score, but the 22-year-old righty struck out Jodd Carter to end the inning. In the second, Jonathan Laureano worked a one-out walk against Singer and came home on a double by Wilbis Santiago. The University of Florida product worked 1-2-3 frames in the third, fourth and sixth, erasing two baserunners in the fifth by inducing an inning-ending double play.

He also walked and scored again in the eighth. The 23-year-old University of Virginia product went 10-for-17 (.588) in the five-game series against the Isotopes, bringing his average up to .296.

The 24-year-old right-hander faced two over the minimum the rest of the way, yielding only a leadoff single in the third and a two-out walk in the fourth. Crowe threw 59 of 88 pitches for strikes.
