Harrisburg — OFF DAY
After taking the past two series at home two games to one, the Senators hit the road for three in Erie and three in Bowie as they continue their second of three straight weeks of Tuesday-to-Sunday with Monday off.

Potomac 5 Carolina 4
• Brach 5IP, 7H, 3R, 3ER, 2BB, K
• Self (W, 3-0) 2IP, 5H, R, ER, 0BB, 3K
• Benincasa (SV, 10) 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, K
• J. Miller 3-4, R, 2RBI
• Norfork 1-3, 2R, BB, RBI
• Piwnica-Worms 1-3, BB, RBI

Potomac decided to win this one an inning early with three in the 8th and held off Carolina for a 5-4 win, reducing their magic number to clinch to four. The 6-7-8 combo of Khayyan Norfork, Will Piwnica-Worms, and Justin Miller combined for five of the P-Nats’ seven hits, including back-to-back-back RBI singles that turned a 3-2 disadvantage into a 5-3 advantage. The rally took starter Brett Brach off the hook for a loss as he gave up those three runs on seven hits and two walks over fine innings. The win went to Derek Self, though he was peppered for five hits over two innings. Robert Benincasa registered save #10 with a 1-2-3 ninth.
Roster moves: LHP Kylin Turnbull placed on the 7-Day DL; LHP Chris Manno assigned from Washington; RHP Derek Self added to Carolina League All-Star Team.

• Ward 1-4, 2R, 3B, 2BB, RBI, 2SB

The Suns broke a five-inning deadlock in the 12th with a pair of runs to stop a three-game slide with a 5-3 win, which reduced their magic numer to three. Lucas Giolito spun four no-hit innings, walking three but fanning six. His teammates had built a 3-0 lead with two in the 2nd and one in the third only to see Lakewood follow suit in the 5th and 6th innings off reliever Andrew Cooper. Four relievers combined for six scoreless innings afterwards, with the win going to Joseph Webb and the save going to Jake Walsh. Spencer Kieboom led the nine-hit, five-walk attack with a 3-for-5 game, including a walk, double, and a run scored.

The D-Nats scored in each of the first three innings to build a 4-0 lead and held off a late charge by the D-Rockies for a 7-5 win, their third straight. Wilber Pena got the win, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks. Angher Cespedes let in two of three inherited runners with no outs in the 8th but finished out the game for his second save. Davinson Pimentel and Victor Robles both went 2-for-3 with two doubles to lead the D-Nats offense.
