Harrisburg 8 Altoona 7
• M. Sanchez 2IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 4K
• A. Lee 3IP, 1H, R, ER, BB, 2K, HR
• McMahan (BS, 1) ⅔ IP, 3H, 3R, 3ER, BB, 2K

• Freeman 4-5, 2R, 2-2B, RBI
• Banks 4-5, R, RBI

The Senators blew a 6-3 lead in the 8th and held off the Curve in the 9th for an 8-7 win and split of the six-game series. Mario Sanchez came off the I.L. and struck out four over two innings while throwing 32 pitches, 21 for strikes. Andrew Lee tossed three innings of one-run relief. (The law firm of) Pearson McMahan lost the lead in the 8th with three straight two-out hits. Bryan Dobzanski got the last out in the 8th and the first of the 9th but also put on two baserunners. Carson Teel was brought on to finish up and muddled through, throwing a wild pitch to let in one runner and move the tying run into scoring position. After an intentional walk and whiff, Teel got the flyball out to seal the deal for his first save of 2021 and the second of his career. On offense, Cole Freeman and Nick Banks both went 4-for-5 and combined for three runs scored and two RBI as Harrisburg pounded out 13 hits, including five doubles (two by Freeman). Roster moves: RHP Mario Sanchez activated from the 7-Day I.L.

• Strohschein 2-5, R, 2B, HR, 3RBI

Fredericksburg scored early and often as they roasted Delmarva pitchers for 18 hits in a 16-7 smackdown to take the series, 4-2. Carlos Romero lasted just one inning, giving up a homer and fanning one before the umpires ejected him after inspecting his glove before the top of the 2nd. Gilberto Chu came on and pitched three and 2/3rds innings, giving up a run on a home run and three hits total. He walked two and struck out one while notching his second “W.” Junior Martina got five hits and five RBI, including his third HR – one of seven on the night for the F-Nats.
FCL Nationals (10-14, 4th Place FCL East, 4½ GB)
The weather cooperated and the FCL Nats won three of eight games but remained in fourth place, albeit by just a game. Today and tomorrow, they’re in West Palm Beach. Wednesday is an off day. And they’ll trek to Jupiter on Thursday, Port St. Lucie on Friday, then back to Jupiter to close out the week.
DSL Nationals (8-6, 3rd place DSL South, 3GB)
The D-Nats won just once last week, though they were winning when play was halted on Saturday. It’s home and home against the D-Mets1 today and tomorrow, off on Wednesday, then two against the D-Cardinals Blue (da bee da ba da), and one against the D-Twins.
