Matt Spann is winless at High-A, but unbeaten at AAA and now AA as the southpaw turned in seven strong innings in a 10-1 Harrisburg blowout win. Spann gave up the one B-Mets runs on seven hits and no walks, striking out three, though he the same batter twice. The Senators put up crooked numbers in the 5th, 6th, and 7th innings to turn a 3-1 game into a laugher as they pounded out 11 hits, including three doubles (Derrick Robinson, Ricky Hague, Brian Jeroloman), a triple (Caleb Ramsey), and a homer (Mario Lisson).

The breaks evened out for Lucas Giolito and the P-Nats as they edged the Mudcats, 4-3. Giolito gave up all three runs over seven strong innings on six hits, but with no walks and nine strikeouts, including four in the 6th when a wild pitch to the leadoff man got turned into an earned but unlucky run when followed by a single and a two-run triple that put him behind 3-2. Potomac tied the game in the 6th with a walk and two infield singles. Stephen Perez got the Homer Simpson RBI with a bases-loaded HBP in the 7th. Derek Self pitched a scoreless 8th for the hold while Cody Davis worked around a walk in the 9th to pick up the save.
