I know you really don’t think much of Mission’s starting pitcher Stephen Faris, but you’re not going to even talk about how well he did or about Seth Johnston either?
Faris struck out four in six scoreless innings and drove in two runs and Seth Johnston scored twice.

Antonelli is really struggling - his line for May .146/.294/.220

#3@SDP29: I’ve always liked Seth Johnston - big rangy guy that can play about anywhere in the infield and is finally starting to show some power - just needs to cut down on his errors at 3b

#3@SDP29: I neither like nor dislike Faris or Johnston. I’ve never heard them identified as prospects, so I don’t include them in the reports.
