Three Red Wings went yard while Jackson Tetreault notched another quality start as Rochester stampeded Buffalo, 6-1. Tetreault gave up the lone Bisons run on a solo HR and five hits total over six frames to win his fifth game. He walked two and struck out three. Sam Clay, Tyler Clippard, and Pat Garrett each put up a goose egg in relief. Joey Meneses hit his 12th longball, Tres Barrera smacked #6, and Ehire Adrianza hit his first at AAA as the Red Wings collected six hits and six walks on offense.

Harrisburg’s scoring woes continued as they failed to score four runs for the 20th time in 48 games in a 4-3 loss to Erie. Franklyn Kilome made his second start for the Senators, turning in five innings of two-run ball on three hits and two walks. The loss went to Francys Peguero on a two-run HR in the 6th, which broke a 2-2 deadlock. Alfredo Rodriguez and Justin Connell both went 2-for-4 with a run scored to pace the Sens offense, which drew just one walk and was 1-for-6 with RISP.
Roster moves: RHP Jake Irvin promoted from Wilmington; LHP Carson Teel reassigned from Rochester.

Wilmington 7 Greensboro 6 (12 inn.)

• Barley 1-4, R, RBI, BB, SB
• Meregildo 1-5, R, HR, RBI

A Blue Rocks bullpen meltdown sent the game into extras where the ‘Hoppers prevailed in the 12th, 7-6. Mitchell Parker labored through four innings, needing 77 pitches to get 12 outs with one run let in on four hits and two walks while striking out five. Following two scoreless from Methuselah Gilberto Chu, Jose Ferrer was manhandled for four runs on four hits (one HR) and two walks over one-plus innings. The loss went to Malvin Peña on single following a sacrifice. Wilmington managed just six hits, but two of them were homers (Yasel Antuna, Omar Meregildo), and drew six walks. Three extra innings helped inflate the Blue Rocks’ RISP mark (2-for-16) and LOB tally (11).

Fredericksburg 6 Fayetteville 0
• Theophile (W, 5-1) 5⅓ IP, 1H, 0R, 2BB, 7K, PO @ 1B

• V. Peña 3-5, R, 2-2B, RBI
• White 2-3, BB
• J. Young 2-5, 2R

That faint thumping you may hear is the sound of folks banging the drum* for Rodney Theophile to be promoted to High-A after the 22-y.o. Nicaraguan won his fifth game in Fredericksburg’s two-hit, 6-0 shutout of Fayetteville. Theophile allowed the first hit and two walks over five and 2/3rds while striking out seven. Orlando Ribalta allowed the second hit and one walks over two and 2/3rds while Jack Sinclair worked around two walks in the 9th. Viandel Peña singled once and doubled twice while T.J. White also reached base three times with a walk and two singles as the FredNats racked up 12 hits and drew three bases-on-balls total on the night.
