RailRiders 11 Red Wings 6
• Braymer (L, 0-2) 3⅔ IP, 7H, 7R, 7ER, 2BB, 3K, 2HR
• McFarland 2IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 3K, HBP
• Tomás 2-5, 2R, 2B, HR, 3RBI
• Kieboom 1-2, R, HR, RBI
The RailRiders broke open a 2-1 game with a five-run 4th as they derailed the Red Wings’ home opener, 11-6. Ben Braymer lost for the second time in as many starts, charged with the first seven Scranton/Wilkes-Barre runs on seven hits (two HR) and two walks over three and 2/3rds. He struck out three. Yasmany Tomás doubled, homered, and drove in three to lead the Rochester offense. Carter Kieboom also homered in two at-bats but was lifted for no obvious reason in the bottom of the 5th. Given that manager Matt LeCroy sent up a LHB to face a LHP with the bases loaded instead of Kieboom, or that there did not appear to be an injury at the big club last night in Chicago, the move may have been predetermined (i.e. made without regard to game situation).
Roster moves: RHP Sean Nolin placed on the 7-Day I.L.; RHP Paolo Espino optioned from Washington.
Altoona 2 Harrisburg 1
• Teel (L, 0-1) 6IP, 2H, R, ER, 0BB, 3K, HR
• German 1IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 0K
• Reetz 1-3, 2B, BB
• Banks 1-4, 2B, RBI
Harrisburg’s 9th inning rally fell one run short, 2-1, ending a three-game win streak. Carson Teel made one mistake—a two-out solo HR in the 6th—and was punished with his first loss despite going six strong innings. He walked none and struck out three. Jakson Reetz doubled with one out and Nick Banks sent him home with a two-out two-bagger but was stranded there as Humberto Arteaga flew out to end the game. The Sens managed just three singles and three walks prior to the 9th.
Aberdeen 5 Wilmington 3
• Cavalli (L, 0-1) 6IP, 10H, 4R, 4ER, 2BB, 12K
• Peterson ⅔ IP, 0H, 0R, 3BB, K
• Canning 2-3, R, 2B, BB, CS
• Pineda 1-4, R, HR, RBI
Cade Cavalli’s scoreless inning streak stopped in the first inning as he took his first professional loss as the Blue Rocks fell to the IronBirds, 5-3. The 22-y.o. racked another career-high of 12 whiffs, but gave up four runs on ten hits and two walks over six innings. Todd Peterson walked the bases loaded in the 7th but was bailed out by Francys Peguero, who then gave up the final run in the 8th. Gage Canning doubled, singled, and walked while Israel Pineda and Omar Meregildo both homered with no one on base to lead the Wilmington offense.
Salem 14 Fredericksburg 3
• P. González ⅔ IP, 4H, 6R, 4ER, 1BB, 0K, 0HR
• A. Hernández 2⅓ IP, 0H, 0R, 1BB, 1K
• Randa 2-3, 2B, BB, RBI
• Arruda 1-3, R, BB
Pedro González became the latest Fredericksburg starter to not make it out of the first as Salem extended the losing streak to 13 with a 14-3 smackdown. González retired just two of eight batters faced while giving up four hits and a walk. Alfonso Hernández turned in his first clean outing of the season with two and a 1/3rd scoreless innings, one walk, and one strikeout. The F-Nats were held to five hits and three walks, led by Joe Randa (2B, 1B, BB) and Jake Arruda (1B, BB).
