The Blue Rocks briefly led this one 3-2 before an RBI triple and a two-run HR off in the bottom of the 5th stood up for a 5-3 Renegades win. Mitchell Parker didn’t make it out of the 3rd, having thrown 72 pitches while walking six and striking out five. He let in two runs on one hit over two and 2/3rds. The loss went to Gilberto Chu, who allowed a walk and an RBI triple ahead of the Tyler Yankosky giving up a two-run HR. Darren Baker doubled twice, driving in a run and scoring ahead of Drew Mendoza’s two-run single during Wilmington’s three-run top of the 5th. Wilmington was limited to five hits total and was unable to cash in on six walks drawn, going 1-for-9 with RISP.

Wilmington never led in this one as Hudson Valley started a picket fence in the 4th through the 6th and the Blue Rocks could only match them with single runs in the 6th and 7th for a 3-2 loss and a doubleheader sweep. Starter Michael Cuevas lost for the second time, with two runs (one earned) let in on three hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out four, hit a batter, and threw two wild pitches. Darren Baker doubled again and singled twice to drive in both Blue Rock runs, scored by Cole Daily (1-2) in the 6th and Onix Vega (2-3) in the 7th. Yasel Antuna struck out with the tying run on 3rd and the go-ahead run on 1st to end the game.

The FredNats struck out 16 times and drew just three walks, one by Brady House to extend his on-base streak to 17 games.
