Sunday's games above the jump, Saturday's below.
Alfredo Figaro wasn't as sharp as he has been in the past- he went 6 innings and gave up 5 runs, 4 earned on 5 hits and 4 walks with 4 strikeouts. Robbie Weinhardt wasn't his sharpest either- 3 innings with 2 hits and a walk surrendered. Ryan Raburn and Jeff Frazier went 2-4 with a double.
Brooks Brown went 5 no-hit innings, walking 2 and striking out 5. It was a spot-start, so Ramon Garcia did 2 innings, giving up 2 hits and 2 strikeouts. Justin Henry was 3-4 with 2 doubles, Michael Bertram was 2-3 with a walk and Josh Burrus was 2-4 with a double.
Luke Putkonen went 7.2 innings letting up no runs on 4 hits and 1 walk with 3 strikeouts. Kody Kaiser was 3-4.

Dan Schlereth went 2 innings, giving up 2 hits and striking out 3, while Jay Sborz went one inning with a hit and a strikeout. Ryan Raburn was 3-4 with 2 doubles (clearly steamed about his demotion) and Jeff Larish went 2-4 with 2 doubles.
Jon Kibler was pretty bad- 6 runs (5 earned) on 9 hits (and a homer) with 3 strikeouts. Brendan Wise went 1.2 hitless innings, walking 1 and striking out 3. Cale Iorg was 1-4 with a walk, Wilkin Ramirez was 2-5 with a triple and a homer and Justin Henry was 2-3 with a double.
