Fresno – OFF DAY
The Grizzlies begin a grueling 11-game road trip against the Rainiers for four, the Chihuahuas for three, and the Isotopes for four with no scheduled off days. Two games separate Fresno from Tacoma for last place, four games from Albuquerque and Salt Lake for the league’s worst record.

Altoona 3 Harrisburg 0 (10 inn.)
• McGowin 6IP, 4H, 0R, BB, 5K
• Bonnell (L, 2-5) 1IP, 2H, 3R, 2R, 0BB, 1K, HR
• Bichette 2-4, 2B
• A. Sanchez 0-2, 2BB

Bryan Bonnell imploded for the third straight outing, coughing up all three Altoona runs on a home run in the 10th in Harrisburg’s 3-0 loss. Kyle McGowin got the start and toyed with the Curve for six shutout innings, giving up four hits and a walk while striking out five. Austen Williams, Jacob Condra-Bogan, and Greg Holland each put up a goose egg before Bonnell, who was working on three days rest, was put in the game. Dante Bichette went 2-for-4 with a double. The rest of the lineup went 0-for-28.

Potomac 7 Myrtle Beach 0
• Raquet (W, 10-8) 7IP, 2H, 0R, 3BB, 5K
• Peguero 2IP, 1H, 0R, BB, K
• Sundberg 4-5, R
• Freeman 4-5, 2R
• Davidson 2-4, 2RBI

Nick Raquet tossed seven shutout innings to win his fifth straight start, as the P-Nats shut out the Pelicans 7-0 on three hits. Raquet walked three and gave up two hits while striking out five to become the Nats second ten-game winner (Joan Adon). Francys Peguero allowed the third hit and issued a walk while finishing the game. Jack Sundberg and Cole Freeman both went 4-for-5 while K.J. Harrison and Gilbert Lara went deep (nos. 8 and 3 for Potomac respectively) as the P-Nats pounded out 15 hits total. Salem won its fourth straight to maintain a 2½ game lead on Potomac.
Roster moves: RHP Jackson Tetreault demoted from Harrisburg; RHP Jorge Pantoja placed on the 7-Day I.L.

Lakewood 5 Hagerstown 1
• Schaller (L, 2-3) 5IP, 4H, 2R, 1ER, BB, 6K
• A. Hernandez 3IP, 2H, R, ER, 0BB, 4K
• Daily 2-4, R
• Upshaw 1-3, 2B, BB, RBI

Lakewood got to Reid Schaller for two in the 2nd and that would end up being enough as they took the rubber game from Hagerstown, 5-1. Schaller recovered to finish with five innings of two-run ball on four hits and a walk while fanning six, but lost for the third time in nine starts. The Suns were held to just five hits and three walks, with Armond Upshaw breaking up the shutout with an RBI double in the 3rd. Upshaw also walked and was joined by Cole Daily (two singles) and Nic Perkins (two walks) in reaching base twice.

Williamsport 4 Auburn 0
• C. Romero (L, 0-4) 5IP, 5H, 2R, 2ER, 3BB, 4K, WP

• Ydens 1-3, HBP, SB
• Sanfler 1-4

The Crosscutters scored two in the 5th and two in the 6th and shut out the Doubledays on two hits, 4-0. Carlos Romero lost for the fourth time and he let in two on five hits and three walks while fanning four. Jeremy Ydens was the sole Auburn batter to reach base twice, doing it the hard way with single and a hit by pitch. Caldioli Sanfler was the only other hit as the rest of the lineup walked four times.
