Rochester 6 Syracuse 1
• Rodriguez 4⅓ IP, 3H, 3R, 3ER, 4BB, 9K, HR, BK, 83-43 PIT-K
• Garrett (W, 2-1) 1⅔ IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 2K, WP, 1-0 IR-S

• Barrera 1-2, R, 2B, 2BB

Rochester battered Syracuse pitchers for 13 runs on 12 hits as the Red Wings outslugged the Mets, 13-6. Jefry Rodriguez struck out a season-high of nine and walked four over four and a 1/3rd innings, throwing 83 pitches but just 43 for strikes. Reed Garrett got out of the 5th and put up a goose egg in the 6th to earn his second win. Luis García singled and homered and was lifted after his walk, perhaps a sign that he had a flight to catch. Donovan Casey and Josh Palacious also had multiple hits while Tres Barrera reached three times with a double and two walks.
Roster moves: RHP Patrick Murphy outrighted from Washington.

Harrisburg 6 Hartford 1 – GAME ONE
• Guasch (W, 2-2) 6IP, 3H, R, ER, 4BB, 5K, WP
• Brill 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 0K
• Gushue 1-2, R, BB, HR, RBI
• Connell 1-3, R, HR(5), 2RBI, SB
• Lara 1-3, R, HR, 2RBI

The Senators went deep four times, accounting for every run in a 6-1 win over the Yard Goats. Starter Richard Guasch evened up his won-loss record at 2-2 and registered his first quality start, going six innings with the lone Hartford run allowed on three hits and four walks while striking out five. Taylor Gushue, Justin Connell, Gilbert Lara, and Mitch Longo all homered to lead the Harrisburg attack.

Hartford 5 Harrisburg 4 – GAME TWO
• Troop 4IP, 7H, 4R, 2ER, BB, 3K, HR
• A. Lee (L, 1-1) 3IP, 3H, R, ER, 0BB, 4K, HR
• W. Garcia 3-3, R
• Alu 2-4, R, 2RBI
• Connell 1-3, R, HR, 2RBI

In the nightcap, Harrisburg hit two more longballs to account for all four runs in a 5-4 loss to Hartford. Alex Troop, who was 1-4 with a 5.45 ERA as a starter last year vs. 7-1 with a 1.59, showed the same pattern as he allowed four runs (two earned) on seven hits (one HR) over four innings as the spot starter. The loss went to Andrew Lee on a 7th in solo shot in his third inning of work. Jake Alu hit his first HR of the season while Connell homered again.

Wilmington 2 Hudson Valley 0
• Irvin 4IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 4K
• Kirian (W, 1-0) 1⅔ IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• Brzykcy (SV, 2) 2IP, 1H, 0R, 2BB, 4K
• Meregildo 2-4, R, 2B
• Pineda 1-4, 2B, RBI

Four Blue Rocks pitchers survived four errors to combine on a three-hit, 2-0 shutout of the Renegades. Jake Irvin went the first four innings and allowed just one hit, no walks, and fanned four. The win went to Michael Kirian, with an assist (OK, fine: hold) by Troy Stainbrook while Zach Brzykcy worked out of bases-loaded, one-out jam in the 9th for his second save. Omar Meregildo led the Wilmington hit column with a single and a double while Kevin Strohschein and Israel Pineda drove in the two runs with a single and a double, respectively.

Fredericksburg 6 Charleston 1
• Theophile (W, 2-0) 6IP, 3H, 0R, 0BB, 9K
• Ferrer (H, 1) 2IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• Infante 2-4, R, HR, 4RBI
• V. Peña 1-2, R, BB, 2B, 2SB
• Millas 1-3, 2R, BB, 2SB

Fredericksburg snapped a 0-0 tie with three in 4th and cruised to a 6-1 win. Rodney Theophile struck out a career-best nine while he both won his second game and notched his second quality start. The 22-y.o. Nicaraguan neutered the RiverDogs for six innings, allowing just three hits and no walks. Jose Ferrer added two more zeroes to the top half of the scoreboard for the hold. Sammy Infante kept pace with Justin Connell for the organizational lead in HRs by hitting his 6th HR and driving in four total while going 2-for-4, followed by Drew Millas, who singled, walked, and stole two bases – including home plate for the first run of the game.
