OFF DAY

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre 7 Rochester 0
• Sharp (L, 1-3) 5IP, 7H, 1R, 1ER, 2BB, 4K
• Cronin 1IP, 0H, 0R, 1BB, 2K
• Stevenson 2-4, 2B
• Palacios 1-3

A change of venue made no difference as the Red Wings were shut out, 7-0, to extend their skid to seven games. Sterling Sharp made the start and turned in his best outing: one run on seven hits and two walks over five innings while fanning four. He was rewarded with a loss as the Rochester offense was AWOL, managing just five hits and four RISP chances. Andrew Stevenson was the sole Red Wings batter to reach base twice as he went 2-for-4 with a double.
Roster moves: RHPs Reed Garrett, Jackson Tetreault added to 40-man, recalled to Washington; LHP Francisco Perez recalled to Washington; RHP Jordan Weems optioned from Washington.

Conversely, Harrisburg remains in a groove with its third consecutive 2-1 win and sixth straight win overall. Franklyn Kilome allowed the Flying Squirrels’ run on a solo shot and two hits total. He walked two and struck out seven to win his first game of the year. Offensively, Justin Connell drove in both Senators tallies with a two-run HR in the 5th. Defensively, the 23-y.o. gunned down the tying run at the plate to end the 8th on a one-hop throw and a nifty tag by Drew Millas. Harrisburg outhit Richmond 6-5 and left on three baserunners.

The Blue Rocks rallied for two twice to tie the game at 2-2 and 4-4, then got two more again in the bottom of the 8th for a 6-5 win over the Cyclones. Seth Shuman surrendered all five Brooklyn runs on eight hits (one HR) over five innings. He walked none and set down three on strikes. Ricardo Méndez drove in three, including the go-ahead run in the 8th while Israel Pineda tripled and doubled and Yasel Antuna singled twice to lead the Wilmington offense. The win went to Garvin Alston with a scoreless 8th while Jose Ferrer struck out two in the 9th for his second save.

• Infante 1-4, E(8)

Fredericksburg’s pitchers limited the top-hitting team in the Carolina League to just two runs. But Myrtle Beach shut out the league’s second-best offense, 2-0, on six hits to take the series opener. Mason Denaburg went the first three, allowing two hits, no runs, no walks, and struck out four. The loss went to Andrew Alvarez, with one run let in on three hits over four innings with five whiffs. Branden Boisserie went 2-for-4 while four others collected just a single as the FredNats were 0-for-6 with RISP and left on eight baserunners.
Roster moves: LHP Dustin Saenz activated from 7-Day I.L.
