Santa Fe 14-4 Washington: D.C. hurlers surrendered five dingers. Alan Hines took his first loss -- six runs, eight hits in five full. Hunter Greenwood put up stellar numbers out of the DC pen -- 2 IP, six hits, four runs.

Stinkfest of the Day:
Colorado 19 Milwaukee 13

Where to start.

Len Heiseman from Milwaukee had a nice day. 3-5, two taters, three runs and five RBI. Tanner Howard and George Cora each went 4-5 with homers. Colorado, though, wiped their nosed with pitchers Carlton Cepeda and Wally Roberts. Carlton started the game, going 3 1/3 with six runs on eight hits. Wally Roberts wins line of the week: 1 1/2 IP, 11 hits, 12 runs. Yes, only two were earned, but still.
