For the fourth straight appearance, Zach Jackson was gashed for multiple runs with a four-run pounding in the 8th. Steve Souza singled, doubled, and tripled to push his OPS to an even 1.000 while raising his BA to .347

Neil Holland stranded a runner in the 4th and was touched for a run in the 5th but got win #4 nevertheless. Kevin Keyes drove in three and went 3-for-3 while Michael Taylor and Justin Bloxom both hit two-run homers as Harrisburg made the most of its eight hits and four walks in six turns at bat.

• Perez 1-3, R, BB
The Pelicans have the number of Gilberto Mendez, as they got to him for three runs in the last of the 8th to turn a 3-1 deficit into a 4-3 walkoff win to split the twinbill. It was the second loss of ’14 for Mendez, both to Myrtle Beach, as he was charged with three runs on five hits over an inning and 2/3rds. Starter John Simms gave up one run on six hits and one walk over the first six innings for his third no-decision in four A+ starts. Oscar Tejeda homered again while going 2-for-4 and Steven Perez reached base twice with a walk and a single to lead the Potomac offense.

Orlan took the loss with four runs given up on four hits and two walks. Wilmer Difo remains red-hot, going 3-for-5, but the rest of the Hagerstown lineup managed just five hits and left on 10 baserunners.
