Robbie Ray went just four innings as a high pitch count held him to four innings, as the 22-y.o. southpaw gave up both Lynchburg runs on five hits and two walks and struck out a season-low of three. Colin Bates threw three prefect frames, striking out the side in the 7th to earn the win. Francisco Soriano, Michael Taylor, and Keyes each had two hits to pace the Potomac offense.

Khayyan Norfork led the Hagerstown hit parade with a 4-for-6 afternoon while Estarlin Martinez drove in five with two doubles and a single.
