• Hill 2-4, R, HR, RBI
• Alu 2-4, R, 2B(15), RBI, SB
• 1-11 RISP; 7 LOB

Rochester’s bats remained AWOL aside from the usual suspects as the Red Wings dropped the finale, 5-2 to Worcester to extend their losing streak to four. Joan Adon turned a serviceable start of three runs on six hits (one HR) and a walk while striking out five. But his third quality start was also his fourth loss. Derek Hill homered to lead off the game and Jake Alu plated the second Rochster run on a ground out. The top two batters both went 2-for-4 but the rest of the lineup went 3-for-25 with 11 strikeouts.

New Hampshire 6 Harrisburg 4
• Cuevas 6⅓ IP, 5H, 2R, 1ER, 2BB, 4K
• Sinclair (BS, 1; L, 0-2) ⅔ IP, 3H, 4R, 4ER, 1BB, 0K, PO @ 1B, 2-1 IR-S
• Vega 3-3, 2R, 2-2B, RBI
• Rutherford 3-4, 2B, 3B, CS

The Fisher Cats went to town on the Senators bullpen in the 7th, scoring five runs to turn a 3-1 deficit into a 6-3 lead. Harrisburg could only get one run back as they lost the game, 6-4 and the series, 4-2. Michael Cuevas pitched into the 7th for the first time this season but left after giving up two singles to the first three batters. Jack Sinclair got out of the inning, but not until he let in one of two inherited runners and four of his own for the blown-save-loss. Onix Vega doubled twice, scored twice, singled once, and drove in a run while Blake Rutherford fell a HR shy of the cycle to lead the Harrisburg offense.

Greensboro 6 Wilmington 3
• Diaz 2IP, 2H, 2R, 2ER, 1BB, 4K, HR
• Huff 5IP, 1H, 0R, 2BB, 4K
• Ruwe (L, 0-1) 1IP, 3H, 4R, 4ER, 1BB, 2K, HR, 2WP
• V. Peña 2-4, R, 2B
• De La Rosa 2-4, 2B
• 2-14 RISP; 9 LOB

SSDL as Wilmington gave up four in the bottom of the 8th to break a 2-2 deadlock. The Blue Rocks get one back in the top of the 9th and got the tying run to the plate but came up short, 6-3 for the game, 5-1 for the series. Dannel Diaz made the start for reasons unknown as neither the Wilmington game notes nor the (on) crack Greensboro broadcasters mentioned it (“I think he’s from the Dominican”). The 26-y.o. Cuban was lit up for two runs on home run over two innings. The loss went to 27-y.o. Thomas Ruwe, who gave up the aforementioned four runs on three hits and a walk in one inning thrown. Viandel Peña and Jeremy De La Rosa both went 2-for-4 with a double to lead the Blue Rocks’ ten-hit parade with two (2) hits coming in 14 RISP chances.

Fredericksburg 4 Charleston 0
• Cornelio (W, 2-2) 5IP, 3H, 0R, 2BB, 7K
• Abreu (H, 2) 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• Thomas 1-3, R, BB, HR, RBI, 2K,
• Ge. Diaz 1-4, R, HR, RBI

Five relievers combined for four scoreless innings as the FredNats got their first shutout of the season, 4-0 on four hits. Riley Cornelio went the first five, allowing three hits and two walks while setting down seven on strikes, which earned him his second win of the season. Johnathan Thomas and Geraldi Diaz both hit solo HRs while Daylen Lile drew a bases-loaded walk and Branden Boisserie doubled in a run as Fredericksburg made the most of its five hits and three walks.

The FCL Nationals are on a three-game winning streak after their first week of play. This week, the F-Nats leave West Palm Beach for games on Wednesday and Friday against the F-Mets and F-Marlins and are on the “road” today against the F-Astros.
