Phillies 3B Alec Bohm, Class A Advanced Clearwater: 3-for-6, HR, 2 RBIs, R -- Philadelphia sent its top prospect to the South Atlantic League at the start of the season, and he earned a promotion after 22 games. Not much has changed in terms of Bohm's production since joining Clearwater
Phillies 3B Alec Bohm, Class A Advanced Clearwater: 3-for-6, HR, 2 RBIs, R -- Philadelphia sent its top prospect to the South Atlantic League at the start of the season, and he earned a promotion after 22 games. Not much has changed in terms of Bohm's production since joining Clearwater on the last day of April, as MLB.com's No. 53 overall prospect has reached base in all but two games. He launched his first Florida State League homer in the first inning Saturday and added two singles to bring his slash line up to .304/.340/.457 in 11 games with the Threshers. Sustained numbers like those and the 22-year-old Wichita State product -- picked third in last year's Draft -- could join Double-A Reading before the summer is over. Gameday box score
Braves 3B Austin Riley, Triple-A Gwinnett: 1-for-3, HR, 2 BB, 2 RBIs, R -- Atlanta's fourth-ranked prospect continued what he's done all month: crush baseballs. After posting a .266/.330/.500 slash line with five homers in April, the 22-year-old has upped those numbers to .405/.500/1.119 in 42 at-bats this month. He's walked and struck out eight times each. Riley's latest roundtripper brought Gwinnett even with Pawtucket in the sixth inning Saturday, and he won the game for the Stripers by plating Ryan LaMarre with a ninth-inning sacrifice foul pop. The homer was his International League-leading 14th of the season and ninth in 11 games. Gameday box score

Milwaukee's No. 14 prospect sent the first pitch he saw from southpaw Ryan Kellogg over the fence in right with two outs, pulling Carolina from behind to defeat Myrtle Beach, 9-7.

Padres LHP MacKenzie Gore, Class A Advanced Lake Elsinore: 5 2/3 IP, 1 ER, 4 H, 1 BB, 7 Ks -- Gore's lone run came on a solo homer by San Jose's John Riley, but that was enough to stick him with the loss as the Storm fell, 8-0. He fanned seven and walked one as his ERA actually inched up to 1.22. MLB.com's No. 14 overall prospect still leads the California League in that category, having allowed more than one run just once in seven starts. He also tops the circuit with a .152 opponents' batting average and 0.70 WHIP. Gameday box score
Red Sox 1B Josh Ockimey, Triple-A Pawtucket: 2-for-4, 2 HR, 2 RBIs, BB, 2 R -- Boston's No. 26 prospect did all he could to will the PawSox to a win.

The 24-year-old crushed a payoff pitch from Fightins' starter Ramon Rosso to right field in the second inning and tagged Rosso again in the fourth, this time for an opposite-field shot to left. Tom's first three-hit game since April 23 bumped his average by 17 points. Gameday box score

Twins LHP Devin Smeltzer, Triple-A Rochester: 8 IP, 0 ER, 4 H, 1 BB, 6 Ks -- After tossing seven scoreless innings in his first start for the Red Wings, Smeltzer one-upped himself by blanking Durham across eight frames.
