Lets start in Lakewood, where first we have to say congratulations to pitcher Colin Kleven, who was the lone BlueClaw to be selected to play in the All-Star game in Charleston in 2 weeks!! Colin has been the most consistent of Lakewood's hurlers so far this year, and will throw again tonight against Lexington. Congratulations are also in order for David Buchanan, and Jesse Biddle, who were named Eastern League and Florida State League pitchers of the week respectively for the week ended June 3.
On Tuesday night, the Claws broke their 8-game losing streak with a 5-4 win over the Legends. Kelly Dugan had a single, a double, and a walk, and Chris Duffy had a big 2-RBI hit to pace the Claws' attack. Ethan Stewart notched his first win of the season, throwing 6 solid innings, and giving up just 2 runs on 3 hits and 4 walks, striking out 5. Luis Paulino (1.90) threw 2 excellent innings of relief to pick up his 2nd save.
In Allentown, Domonic Brown (.282) had 4 hits, including 2 home runs and drove in 3 runs to pace the IronPigs attack in a 10-1 win over the Braves.

Peter Lavin, Albert Cartwright, Cody Asche, and Jim Murphy all had 2 hits for Clearwater.........In Reading, the R-Phils wasted a great performance from Julio Rodriguez, and dropped a 1-0 decision to Altoona.
