Scranton/Wilkes-Barre 3 Rochester 1
• Cavalli (L, 0-3) 6IP, 8H, 3R, 3ER, 5BB, 4K
• Barrett 1IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 1K
• Robles 1-4, 2B
• Casey 1-4, RBI, OF assist @ 3B

Rochester’s winless streak went to 12 with a 3-1 loss to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Cade Cavalli tossed a quality start by the leanest definition, with three runs allowed over six innings, but was peppered with eight hits and walked five while striking out only four. He lost for the third time in three AAA starts. Jhon Romero and Aaron Barrett both put up a goose egg, but the Red Wings offense mustered just four hits and three walks. Victor Robles had the sole extra-base hit, a two-out double in the 5th.

Bowie 8 Harrisburg 3
• Tetreault 6IP, 6H, 3R, 3ER, 4BB, 5K, HR
• Tapani 2IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 1K
• Teel (L, 2-6) 2IP, 5H, 5R, 1ER, 0BB, 3K, WP
• Harrison 3-4, R, 2-2B, HR, 3RBI
• Reetz 1-3, BB
• 1-for-12 RISP; 6 LOB

K.J. Harrison homered in the 6th and doubled in the 8th to erase a 3-0 deficit and force extras, where the BaySox got five runs in the top of the 10th to take this one, 8-3. I’d tell you how the first, controversial scored in the top of the 10th, but MiLB.tv switched to a re-enactment of the “Sopranos” final scene. As best as I can tell from the audio that finally kicked in about 2½ minutes after the feed went to black and to silent, Aldrem Corredor fielded a grounder and fired to home then dropped the ball in the ensuing rundown between third and home after Bowie’s Zach Watson, who had begun the inning as the free runner and took third on a groundout, collided with Corredor and jarred the ball loose to score. When the video finally came back, there was no replay. Carson Teel then threw a wild pitch for the second Bowie run and gave up a single and three doubles for three more. Harrisburg then went in order in the 10th for their sixth straight loss.

Wilmington 5 Aberdeen 2
• Henry 5IP, 2H, 0R, 0BB, 7K, HBP
• Chu (H, 1) 2IP, 1H, 0R, BB, 3K
• Brzkcy (BS, 3; W, 6-4) 1IP, 2H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, 2K, HR
• Meregildo 2-4, R, HR(15), 4RBI
• Pratt 2-3, 2R, 2B, BB, HR, RBI
• Antuna 1-3, 2B(25), BB, E(31)

Three Wilmington pitchers shut out Aberdeen for eight innings on three hits. The fourth? Not so much, as Zach Brzkcy coughed up a two-run HR to blow a 2-0 lead. He was awarded a win after Omar Meregildo connected for a three-run walkoff HR, his 15th of the season. Cole Henry got the start and struck out seven and allowed just two hits over five scoreless innings. He walked none and hit a batter in the no-decision. Andrew Pratt homered and doubled while Yasel Antuna doubled to lead off the 9th as the Blue Rocks got five hits and five walks on the night.

Fredericksburg 6 Delmarva 1
• Merrill 3IP, 1H, 0R, 5BB, 5K, HBP, WP
• Urena (W, 1-1) 3IP, 3H, R, ER, 0BB, 5K, 2WP, BK
• Baker 2-4, R, BB, RBI, SB
• Emiliani 1-4, R, HR(5), 3RBI
• Young 1-4, 2R, BB, 2SB(9,10)

The F-Nats broke out for five in the 5th to erase a 1-0 deficit and cruised to a 6-1 win. Matt Merrill LaLooshed the first three innings with no runs, five walks, and five strikeouts and hit a mascot batter. Edward Urena went the next three, giving up a run on three hits and no walks. He struck out five while getting his first win of 2021. Leandro Emiliani’s three-run HR capped off the aforementioned 5th while Darren Baker walked once, scored once, drove in one, and singled twice to lead the Fredericksburg offense.

FCL Nationals 7 FCL Mets 4
• Davis 2⅓ IP, 4H, R, ER, 2BB, 2K, WP
• K. Rodriguez (W, 1-2) 2IP, 0H, R, BB, K, HBP
• Arias 2-4, R, RBI, SB, CS
• Rivero 1-2, R, HR, BB, 3RBI
• House 1-3, R, HR, BB, 2RBI

The FCL Nats answered the FCL Mets’ run in the 1st score with four in the 2nd, then added two more and held on for a 7-4 win. 11th Rd. pick Marc Davis got the start and let in a run on four hits and two walks over two and a 1/3rd. The win went to Kevin Rodriguez with two scoreless innings, with a walk and a hit batsman. Yoander Rivero and Brady “He’s a Brick” House both homered, combining for five RBI and two of the eight walks drawn while Andry Arias singled twice to lead the FCL Nats’ hit column.
