An 11-run 2nd put this one away early as Syracuse destroyed Durham, 16-3. James Simmons shook off the long delay to go seven innings, allowing three runs on five hits and a walk to record his first AAA win of the season. Just three of the 21 hits the Chiefs compiled were for extra bases — two doubles by Brock Peterson, who had four hits as did Will “Don’t Call Me Buster” Rhymes, and one by Steve Souza, who tallied five RBI.

Harrisburg dialed long distance three times, including a three-run shot by Wilson Ramos in the 3rd as they ended a five-game losing streak with a 5-2 win over Akron. Ricky Hague and Kevin Keyes also went deep, with Hague the sole Senator to record multiple hits. Paolo Espino got the win, giving up both RubberDuck runs on four hits and no walks over five innings. He struck out a season-high of eight. Derek Self turned in three scoreless innings for the hold while Robert Benincasa retired the side in order for his first AA save.

The P-Nats scored three in the 1st and were in control from start to finish for a 10-2 win over the Hillcats.
