Probable pitchers: Spokane RHP Ben Henry (0-0, 3.12) vs. Yakima RHP Andrew Wolcott (0-0, 3.12).
Notes
ROSTER CHANGES: The Bears have released pitcher Jesse Orosco. Orosco’s father of the same name was a relief pitcher who appeared in more major league games than any player in history.
Meanwhile, Yakima has added right-handed pitcher Alex Thieroff, a free-agent signee from Southern Indiana.
Yakima is still waiting for infielder Evan Button to make his pro debut. A 22nd-round draft choice last month from the University of Mississippi, Button is recovering from an Achilles injury sustained during the Rebels run in the recent NCAA tournament.
