Tacoma 9 Fresno 7
• Hoover 4⅓ IP, 9H, 7R, 6ER, BB, 2K, 4HR
• Kontos (L, 2-1) 1⅔ IP, 2H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, K, HR, 1-0 IR-S
• Noll 3-5, R
• C. Taylor 2-4, R, 2B, BB, HR, 2RBI
• Ward 2-4, 2R, BB, HR, 2RBI
The Grizzlies led 3-0, 4-1, and 7-3 before the Rainiers tied it at 7-7 in the 5th and went ahead in the 6th for what proved to be the final score of 9-7. J.J. Hoover coughed up six runs on four HRs and seven runs total on nine hits over four and a 1/3rd innings. He walked one and struck out two. The loss went to George Kontos on a two-run HR in the 6th. Ronald Peña tossed two scoreless to keep things close, but Fresno couldn’t convert leadoff hits in the 8th and 9th innings into runs. Jake Noll led the Grizzlies hit column with three singles while Chuck Taylor and Drew Ward both went 2-for-4 with a walk, a homer, and two RBI.
Richmond 7 Harrisburg 1
• McGowan (L, 1-2) 5IP, 6H, 7R, 5ER, 3BB, 2K, HR
• Bonnell 2IP, 0H, 0R, BB, 0K
• Stevenson 2-4, R, 2B
• Zimmerman 1-2, K
Richmond jumped out to a 4-1 lead after one and never looked back for a 7-1 win to complete the “sweep” of Harrisburg. Kevin McGowan gave up all seven runs on six hits (one HR) and three walks over five innings. Brian Bonnell kept the deficit at six with two goose eggs for his first scoreless outing since August 1st. Andrew Stevenson singled and doubled while Ryan Zimmerman singled and struck out to lead the Sens five-hit, three-walk spree.
Roster moves: RHP Kyle McGowin recalled to Washington; OF Hunter Jones placed on the 7-Day I.L; RHP Eduardo Vera assigned from Washington (released by Indianapolis on 8/9).
Winston-Salem 4 Potomac 1
• Tetreault (L, 2-2) 4⅔ IP, 6H, 4R, 4ER, 2BB, 3K, 0HR, WP
• F. Peguero 1⅓ IP, 2H, 0R, 0BB, 3K, 2-2 IR-S
• Lara 1-3, 2B
• Harrison 1-4, 2B, RBI
The drop down to High-A from AA did not change Jackson Tetreault’s (mis)fortunes as the Dash got to him for three hits and a walk with two outs in the 5th to chase him from the game. Francys Peguero turned the 2-1 deficit into the final score of 4-1 in favor of Winston-Salem by giving up a two-run double to the first batter he faced. Tetreault was charged with all four runs and six hits total while walking two and striking out three for his second High-A loss. Peguero would put up a goose egg in the 6th, as did Gabe Klobosits in the 7th, and Ryan Tapani in the 8th, but the P-Nats bats were ice cold after Cole Freeman and K.J. Harrison hit back-to-back doubles in the top of the 1st. They would tally just five hits total and draw no walks.
West Virginia 4 Hagerstown 2
• Irvin (L, 6-8) 5IP, 6H, 4R, 4ER, 3BB, 2K, HBP, WP
• Vann 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 3K
• Caulfield 1-3, RBI
• Connell 1-4, RBI
West Virginia scored in each of the first three innings to go up 4-0 and held on for a 4-2 win to prevent the four-game sweep by Hagerstown. Jake Irvin allowed all four Power runs on six hits and three walks over five innings to suffer his eighth loss. Like their High-A counterparts, three Suns relievers combined for three scoreless innings to keep things close. The Hagerstown hitters were limited to six singles and no walks. No batter reached base twice.
State College 4 Auburn 3 – GAME ONE
• Dyson 5IP, 3H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• Segura (H, 1) 1⅓ 2H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, 1K, HR
• Milacki (BS, 1; L, 0-2) 0IP, 3H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, 0K
• Mendez 2-3, R, HR, 2RBI
• Carrillo 1-2, R, 3B, RBI
The Spikes erased a 3-0 deficit with four runs in the bottom of the 7th to walk off the Doubledays, 4-3. Tyler Dyson tossed five scoreless on 54 pitches, allowing three hits, no walks, and struck out two. Fausto Segura retired the side in order in the 6th, but gave up a single, then a homer before striking out his sixth batter faced. Bobbi Milacki Jr. needed two outs for the save and had no one on base when he came in. No word on who held his beer as he sandwiched a single between a pair of triples for the blown-save-loss. Opposing pitcher Emmanuel Solano had a one-hit shutout through five and a 1/3rd before Jack Dunn bunted his way on, Adalberto Carrillo drove him in with a triple, and Ricardo Mendez homered for his second hit and Auburn’s fourth (and final) to account for the Doubledays’ three runs and four hits.
State College 3 Auburn 1 – GAME TWO
• Willingham (L, 1-4) 3IP, 5H, 2R, 2ER, 1BB, 0K, HBP, WP
• Moore 1IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 0K
• Arruda 2-3, RBI
No such drama in the nightcap, as State College got two in the 3rd and one in the 5th and held off Auburn for a 3-1 win to sweep the doubleheader. Amos Willingham got the spot start and took the loss, giving up two runs on five hits and a walk. J.T. Arruda singled in Ricardo Mendez in the 6th to avoid the shutout and notch the fifth and final hit of the game for the Doubledays.
