Hill gave up one run on a home run and four hits total with no walks and three whiffs to win for the first time in 2016. Trevor Gott pitched a 1-2-3 eighth for the hold while Rafael Martin was credited with a save in the one-run 9th.

Harrisburg 6 Richmond 4
• Giolito (W, 1-2) 6IP, 4H, 2R, 2ER, BB, 4K, HBP

• Collier 3-4, R, 2B
• Soto 2-4, R, RBI
• Perez 1-2, 2R, 2BB
Lucas Giolito bounced back from his worst outing of the year to turn in his best in a 6-4 Senators win over the Flying Squirrels. The 21-y.o. turned in six innings of two-run ball with a walk, four hits, and a hit batsman as he won his first game of the season. A little luck also helped as Harrisburg rallied for three in the top of the 7th on a two-out, three-run triple by Cutter Dykstra. John Simms pitched a scoreless 7th and 8th to earn the hold while the offense piled on two more in the 8th and one more in the 9th. Veterans Zach Collier and Neftali Soto led the charge with five of the nine Harrisburg hits while Stephen Perez scored twice and drew two walks.
Lynchburg 7 Potomac 2
• Estevez (L, 0-2) 4IP, 8H, 4R, 4ER, 2BB, 1K

• Keller 3-4, 2B
• Ward 1-3, R, BB, HR, RBI
Potomac lost its seventh straight game to Lynchburg in a 7-2 makeup game that wasn’t pretty. Wirkin “For The Weekend” Estevez lost for the second time with four runs given up on eight hits and two walks with one (1) strikeout over four innings. Matthew Spann was scratched by the Hillcats for three runs in the 5th and was saved from further damage by Justin Thomas who stranded three in the 7th and pitched a scoreless 8th. Alec Keller singled twice and doubled once to lead the P-Nats hit column while Drew Ward tied for the Carolina League lead with his 7th homer. Roster moves: RHP Dakota Bacus reassigned from Harrisburg; RHP Jake Johansen reassigned to Auburn.
West Virginia 4 Hagerstown 0
• DeRosier (L, 1-1) 5IP, 5H, 4R, 4ER, 3BB, 3K, 2HBP, 2WP
• Bach 3IP, 1H, 0R, BB, 2K
• Sagdal 1-3
• Reetz 1-3
The Suns were eclipsed by the Sally League’s top starting pitcher in a 4-0 shutout by the Power. Mitch Keller shut down Hagerstown for six innings on two hits and a walk (his third of the season) to lower his ERA to 0.79 while striking out eight to push his league-leading total to 42 in 34IP. Losing pitcher Matt DeRosier let in all four West Virginia runs on five hits, three walks, and two hit batsman over five innings. Connor Bach shut down the Power for three innings on one hit in relief, but was matched by the two West Virgnia relievers. Ian Sagdal, Jakson “Did Anyone See My C?” Reetz, and Victor Robles each singled while Jeff Gardner drew the one Suns walk.
