Buffalo 5 Rochester 1
• Reyes (L, 0-5) 5⅔ IP, 6H, 2R, 0ER, 2BB, 3K, HBP, WP
• Teel 1⅓ IP, 0H, 0R, BB, K, 2-0 IR-S
• Bautista 3-4
• Ford 1-3, BB
• 1-for-7 RISP; 11 LOB
Rochester nursed a 1-0 lead into the 6th where an error and a walk were turned into two runs. Buffalo added one more in the 8th and two more in the 9th to take the series finale, 5-1. Luis Reyes took the loss, his fifth for the Red Wings and 11th overall, despite a line of two unearned runs allowed on six hits and two walks over five and 2/3rds innings. Carson Teel stranded two while finishing the 6th and pitched a scoreless 7th in his AAA debut. Rafael Bautista singled three times to lead the Red Wings’ 10-hit parade.
New Hampshire 6 Harrisburg 4
• Carrillo (L, 0-5) 4IP, 5H, 6R, 4ER, 2BB, 6K, 2HR, HBP
• Troop 3⅔ IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 8K
• Sagdal 2-4, 2R, 2B, HR, 3RBI
• Wiseman 1-4, 2B
Like many a car in a New Hampshire front yard, the wheels came off in the 4th as the Fisher Cats scored five times to erase a 3-1 deficit as they took the season finale, 6-4. Gerardo Carrillo gave up all six New Hampshire runs on five hits (two homers) and two walks over four innings. He struck out six while losing his fifth game for the Senators. Alex Troop tied his season high in strikeouts with eight in three and 2/3rds scoreless innings, but the offense could only get one run back. Ian Sagdal doubled and homered and drove in three to lead the six-hit, one-walk offense for Harrisburg.
Wilmington vs. Bowling Green – CNCLD
The rains came just in time to cancel the season finale between Wilmington and Bowling Green. The Hot Rods will play for the inaugural High A East League title with the abbreviated, best-of-five format against the Grasshoppers. Pay no attention to the two teams being in the same division; it’s the convoluted playoff format conjured up by MiLB.
Fredericksburg 6 Lynchburg 2
• Theophile (W, 4-11) 5IP, 7H, 2R, 1ER, 1BB, 7K, HR, 2HBP
• Alvarez 2IP, 2H, 0R, 0BB, 4K
• Boisserie 2-3, 2R, 2B, HR(1), 4RBI
• Boone 1-3, 3B, 2RBI, SB
• Vega 1-3, 2R, BB
The F-Nats put up two to tie in the 2nd, three to win, and one more in the 5th as they finished out 2021 with a four-game win streak with a 6-2 victory over the Hillcats. Rodney Theophile picked up his fourth win with both Lynchburg runs allowed on seven hits (one HR) and one walk over five innings. Andrew Alvarez (2IP), Carlos Romero (1IP), and Amos Willingham (1IP) combined for four scoreless innings to close out the game. Jake Boone tripled two runs to tie it in the 2nd while Branden Boisserie drove in four with a three-run HR in the 3rd and a double in the 5th to power the Fredericksburg offense.
