Twice the Grizzlies jumped ahead of the Aviators—3-0 in the 1st, 5-3 in the 3rd—and twice Kyle McGowin gave it right back. Las Vegas would get single runs in the 5th and 6th and Fresno could answer one as they dropped the game, 7-6 and series, 3-1. McGowin was taken deep three times and eight hits total for six runs (five earned) over five innings for the loss. He walked two and struck out three.

Wil Crowe threw five innings of two-run ball and gave up both Curve runs on six hits while setting down six on strikes for the no-decision, his first at AA. Mario Sanchez shut out and no-hit Altoona the rest of the way, issuing a walk and striking out seven to pick up the “W.” Adrián Sanchez led the Senators hit column with a 3-for-5 night.

In the 4th, Grant Borne stranded two of Reyes’s nine baserunners allowed over three and 2/3rds and tossed three scoreless innings for his first win since July 2017. Potomac pounded out 10 hits, led by Anderson Franco, who scored three times while going 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI, and David Masters, who singled and homered while plating two and scoring twice.
