Daily Farm Round-Up: 6-14-13 

In their season opener, Eugene was embarrassed by the Hawks 7-0. Despite strong starts from Joe Ross and Frank Garces, both Fort Wayne and Lake Elsinore lost due to lack of offense. Led by Cory Spangenberg, San Antonio won both games of their double-header. Tucson rallied in the 6^th and 7^th to beat the Aces 6-5.
