Rochester 5 Syracuse 4
• Verrett (L, 7-9) 6+ IP, 6H, 5R, 5ER, 2BB, 2K, 2HR
• Garrett 1IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• Stevenson 3-5, R, 3B, RBI
• Flores 2-4, 2R, 3B

The Red Wings rallied for two in the 9th but it was only enough to ensure their 24th one-run loss by a score of 5-4. Logan Verrett gave up all five Mets runs on six hits (two HR) and two walks over six-plus innings. He struck out two white losing his ninth game. Andrew Stevenson led the Rochester hit column with two singles and a triple, followed by Jecksson Flores and Taylor Gushue, who combined to go 4-for-6 with a double (Gushue) and a triple (Flores).

Akron 2 Harrisburg 1
• Irvin 5⅔ IP, 1H, 0R, 3BB, 8K
• Brzykcy (BS, 1; L, 2-1) 1IP, 2H, 2R, 1ER, 1BB, 3K, HR
• W. Garcia 2-4
• Baker 1-3, R, BB, 2B
• 1-for-10 RISP, 8 L

In what feels like a microcosm of the season, Harrisburg lost this one in the 9th on an error and a series of unfortunate events. With one out and a runner on 1st and tied at 1-1, Akron’s Raynel Delgado tapped a slow roller to third that Gilbert Lara barehanded and threw wide, behind Delgado who collided with 1B Andrew Young. By the time LF Trey Harris tracked it down, the runner on 1st, who was going a full count, was able to score the game-winning run. Zach Brzykcy struck out the side in the 9th but gave up both runs, the other coming on a leadoff HR, for the blown-save-loss. Jake Irvin’s best outing of the season – five and 2/3rds scoreless on one hit, three walks, and eight K’s – was wasted. Darren Baker scored the lone Harrisburg run on an errant throw by Akron’s 1B after Wilson Garcia singled off his glove and then threw it toward 1st, missing the pitcher covering but hitting Garcia.

Wilmington 7 Hudson Valley 5
• Saenz 4IP, 7H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, 3K, 2HR
• C. Romero (W, 5-4) 2IP, 0H, 0R, 1BB, 6K
• Alvarez (SV, 1) ⅓ IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 1K, 2-0 IR-S
• Mendoza 2-4, 2R, HR, RBI
• Witt 1-3, R, 2B, 2RBI
• Daily 2-4, BB, RBI

The Blue Rocks survived a late charge by the Renegades to get back to .500 with a 7-5 win. Dustin Saenz had his first High-A no-decision with two runs on two homers and seven hits total over four innings. Carlos Romero stuck out the side in both the 5th and 6th innings while picking up his fifth win. Hudson Valley got to Zach Burdi for two runs on a hit and three walks before Andrew Alvarez came on to get the last out with a strikeout for the save. Wilmington made the most of its seven hits and six walks by going 5-for-10 with RISP. Two doubles (Paul Witt, Onix Vega) and a homer (Drew Mendoza) didn’t hurt either.
Roster moves: C Steven Williams reassigned from Fredericksburg.
