The Rockhounds gained another game on league leading Frisco as they beat the
Riders 9-6.  Webb started the game buw was only able to go 5, while allowing 5 runs
(3 earned) with 6 strikeouts and 2 walks.  Fernandez pitched 2 innings
and got his first hold, allowing 1 earned run on 1 hit, 3 walks and 3 k's,
Carney's son got his first save of the season going two with 4 k's, 1
walk and no hits.  ....

Doolittle continues to get more comfortable at AA, with 2 hits including a
2 run homer, Cunningham had 3 hits, Herrera DH'ing had 2 hits and a run.  Still
only 23, though probably a bit old for AA, it will be interesting to see if he
can finally put it all together.  Once considered a top prospects in the system,
injuries have derailed a once promising career.  But in the last two games he's
shown flashes of why the A's once thought so highly of him.
