Giuseppe Norrito and Greg Miller combined on a three hit shutout as the Suns took care of the Barons 4-0.  Norrito gave up the three hits and three walks with three strikeouts in six innings and he improved to 6-0.  Miller threw three innings of no-hit ball and he picked up his first save of the season.

Juan Gonzalez had just one hit but it was a big one.  His bases loaded clearing double in the eighth inning busted the game open for the Suns.

Giuseppe Norrito improved to 4-0 on the season with a decent enough start in the Suns 5-4 win over the Barons.  He gave up three runs on five hits with one strikeout in six innings of work.

Kevin Howard went two for three with a double, a walk and a run.  A.J. Ellis went two for four with a run.

The Suns made it four straight with back to back doubleheader sweeps over Carolina.  In the first game, A.J. Ellis doubled and drove in three runs while Xavier Paul was a perfect two for two with a homerun, a walk and two runs scored.  Giuseppe Noritto improved to a perfect 3-0 and he gave up two runs on six hits with four strikeouts in five innings.

Game two saw Wesley Wright throw five shutout innings.  He gave up two hits and two walks with five strikeouts and he improved to 5-2 on the season.  Chin-Lung Hu went two for three with a solo homerun.

Giuseppe Norrito improved to 2-0 on the season with a nice start in the Suns 7-3 win over the Lookouts.  He gave up one run on five hits and one walk with five strikeouts in seven innings of work.

Chin Lung Hu went two for four with a homerun, two RBIs and two runs.  Cory Dunlap doubled, drove in three and scored a run.

The Suns lost 3-2 and the offense never really got going in this one.  Xavier Paul hit a two run homer to account for the two Suns runs and no other hitter even had an extra base hit.

A nice start by Giuseppe Norrito went to waste in the loss.  He gave up two runs on seven hits with three strikeouts in 6 2/3 innings.

Chin Lung Hu has probably played as good as any Dodger prospect has this year.  Not only is he one of the fielding shortstops in the game, but he hit his first homerun of the season to go along with his awesome .349/.386/.500 line.  Just as impressive is the fact that he’s only struck out 18 times.  The walks aren’t quite there, but he’s making contact quite a bit.  The only thing in Hu’s way now is Rafael Furcal.

Giuseppe Norrito picked up his first win of the season. He gave up three runs on seven hits and a strikeout in 6 1/3 innings.

The Suns scored three runs in the seventh inning to beat Carolina 5-3.  David Nicholson doubled and he drove in two runs while John Lindsey doubled, walked and scored two runs.

Gluseppe Norrito was decent in his start.  He gave up three runs (two earned) on six hits and he struck out two in six innings.  Luis Gonzalez picked up the win with a shutout inning in the seventh.
