• Palacios 3-4, R, CS
• Freeman 1-3, OF assist at 2B

Lehigh Valley got three in the 1st, which would be more than enough as the IronPigs smelted the Red Wings, 9-1. Sterling Sharp lost for the fourth time as he allowed five runs (three earned) on five hits and three walks over five and 2/3rds innings. Josh Palacios singled three times and scored once to account for half of Rochester’s six hits (all singles) as he extended his on-base streak to 18 games. Jake Noll also had a hit, pushing his hit streak to nine, as did Taylor Gushue, whose RBI single broke up the shutout and extended his hit streak to seven.

• Kilome (W, 3-3) 8IP, 3H, 1R, 1ER, 0BB, 8K

Wilson Garcia’s grand slam in the bottom of the 8th broke a 1-1 tie and the Sens’ five-game losing streak as they beat the SeaWolves, 5-2. Franklyn Kilome went eight full innings and allowed the first Erie run on three hits. He walked none and struck out eight. Zach Brzykcy gave up the second SeaWolves run on a one-out HR. Gilbert Lara also homered – a solo HR in the 5th that tied the game at 1-1 – while Jackson Cluff and Jake Alu both had two hits in the eight-hit Harrisburg offense.

Winston-Salem 5 Wilmington 0

Theophile gave up four runs on one hit while walking four and hitting a batter over two innings. He did not strike out a batter. The Blue Rocks bullpen combined for six innings of one-run relief, but the Blue Rocks offense couldn’t push across a runner in 10 RISP chances. Darren Baker and Ricardo Méndez combined for five hits and two doubles with Yasel Antuna rounding out the six-hit assault with a single and José Sánchez drawing the lone walk.

Jackson Rutledge reverted to the mean, giving up all six Lynchburg runs on nine hits and three walks over four and a 1/3rd innings while fanning four. Orlando Ribalta worked around a hit in the 8th to earn his first win of the season. Jeremy De La Rosa fell a homer shy of the cycle while driving in three, including two on a triple in the 8th. Branden Boisserie and Leandro Emiliani both singled twice as Fredericksburg broke into double digits for the 12th time season and the third time this month.
