OFF DAY N/A

Syracuse Chiefs L, 5-3 @ Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Starting Pitcher: Martis (ND) 5IP 4H 2R 2ER 2BB 0K 1HR
Pitching Star: Villone 1IP 1H 0R 0BB 0K
Hitting Star # 1: Orr 3-4, 2R, 2B, BB, HR, RBI
Hitting Star # 2: Botts 2-4, R, 2B
Notes: Syracuse scored two early in the 2nd, but Scranton kept up with them and scored two in the same inning to keep things square. In the 4th Syracuse took the lead scoring one run, but when the 6th rolled around Scranton was able to score three of their own to take the lead and the game from the Chiefs 5-3. Starting pitcher Shairon Martis pitched five innings, giving up four hits, two runs and two walks but received a no-decision the loss.

Harrisburg Senators L, 6-4 @ Trenton
Starting Pitcher: Thompson (L, 4-10) 5⅔ IP 9H 5R 5ER 2BB 2K 3HR
Pitching Star: Martin 2⅓ IP 2H 1R 1ER 1BB 5K
Hitting Star # 1: Coon 2-3, R, 2B, RBI
Hitting Star # 2: Espinosa 2-4, R, 2B, RBI 
Notes: The long ball was Aaron Thompson’s downfall, as all five runs he allowed scored via the home run, taking his league-leading 10th loss and raising his ERA to a second-worst 5.79ERA. He was staked to an early 2-0 lead with a pair of runs in the top of the first but allowed the Thunder to tie in the 2nd and go ahead with another two runs coughed up in the 3rd to make it 4-2. Harrisburg scored one in the 5th to cut the Thunder lead to 4-3, but that’s as close as they would get as the Trenton bullpen pitched three hitless and scoreless frames to nail this down at 6-4.

Potomac Nationals W, 4-2 vs. Wilmington
Starting Pitcher: Zimmermann 2IP 2H 0R 0BB 0K
Pitching Star: Alaniz 6IP 3H 2R 0ER 1BB 5K
Hitting Star #1: Norris 1-3, 2B, BB, 2RBI
Hitting Star #2: Lombardozzi 1-3, 2R, 2B, RBI
Notes: See Sue’s take in Last Night In Woodbridge

Hagerstown Suns L, 4-2 @ Lakewood
Starting Pitcher: Rosenbaum (L, 1-5) 6⅔ IP 7H 3R 1ER 3BB 6K  
Pitching Star: Morrison 1⅓ IP 1H 1R 0ER 0BB 1K
Hitting Star # 1: Ramirez 2-4, R, 2B
Hitting Star # 2: Souza 2-4
Notes: Dan Rosenbaum’s hard luck continues, as he took his 5th loss last night thanks to two unearned runs. He still managed to record a quality start, going 6⅔ innings and allowing three runs overall on seven hits and three walks while striking out six. The Suns offense also struggled, scoring just two runs on eight hits and stranding nine runners. Neither team was a defensive stalwart; the Blue Claws committing four errors, the Suns three.

Vermont Lake Monsters W, 8-1 @ Lowell
Starting Pitcher: McCatty (W, 1-1) 5IP 1H 0R 3BB 3K
Pitching Star: Eusebio 3IP 2H 1R 1ER 2BB 2K
Hitting Star # 1: King  3-5, R, 2B, 4RBI
Hitting Star # 2: Moldenhauer 1-4, R, BB, HR, RBI
Notes: The Lake Monsters remain red hot, taking their 7th straight last night against the Lowell Spinners 8-1. Vermont’s pitching staff kept Lowell batters quiet throughout this one. Starter Shane McCatty went five innings giving up only one hit and three walks with three strikeouts in this one. The Spinners moundsmen weren’t so efficient, walking six to enable the Lake Monsters to score eight times on eight hits, though that included two doubles and a home run.

GCL Nationals L, 2-1 vs. GCL Astros
Starter/Pitching Star: A.J. Morris 4IP 1H 0R 0BB 3K
Hitting Star #1: Jeremy Mayo 2-4, R
Hitting Star #2: Angel Montilla 2-4
Notes: It was a good old-fashioned pitchers’ duel in Viera, with a dozen doughnuts on the scoreboard before the GCL Astros pushed across a run in the top of the seventh. They would add another in the ninth to make it 2-0 before the G-Nats would stage a two-out rally to pull within one, but that would be the final: GCL Astros 2, GCL Nationals 1. Rehabbing A.J. Morris went four innings and allowed just one hit while striking out three.

DSL Nationals W, 10-1 @ DSL Cubs2 [Box score not available on MiLB.com]
Starter/Pitching Star: Silvio Medina (W, 2-2) 6IP 5H 0R 2BB 4K
Hitting Star #1: Edgar Gonzalez 2-6, R, 2B; OF assist
Hitting Star #2: Nelalexfred Ortega 2-6, R, RBI
Hitting Star #2: Bienvenido Valdez 3-6, R, RBI
Notes: After taking a 16-2 beating on Friday, the DSL Nationals put the boot to the head of the DSL Cubs2 by a 10-1 count. The top third of the order went 7-for-18 combined, while starting pitcher Silvio Medina tossed six scoreless innings to even his record at 2-2.

    Looks like Rosenbaum gonna have to pitch a no-hitter to win a game for the Suns. Let’s hope the P-Nats can score more runs for him when he’s finall moved up.
