Rochester 7 Buffalo 4
• Banda 5IP, 10H, 3R, 3ER, 1BB, 2K
• Danish (BS, 1; W, 2-2) 1⅔ IP, 2H, 0R, 0BB, 1K, 2-1 IR-S, E
• G. Moreno 1IP, 0H, 0R, 2BB, 0K, 2HBP
• Blankenhorn 2-4, R, 2B, HR(GS), 5RBI
• Mejia 2-4, R, HR, 2RBI
• Rutherford 1-3, R, BB, 3B

Travis Blankehorn’s 6th-innings grand slam erased an early 3-0 deficit while Erick Mejia’s two-run shot in the 8th put the game away as Rochester stampeded Buffalo, 7-4. Anthony Banda moved up a day in the rotation and wobbled through five innings, somehow managing to let in just three runs from 10 hits and a walk. The cheap win would go to Tyler Danish instead as the journeyman reliever let in one of two runners in the 7th to get the blown save and was the pitcher of record when Blankenhorn smacked an RBI double to reclaim the lead at 5-4. Gerson Moreno walked two and hit two, but sandwiched a double play ball in between to keep the Bison off the board and get the save. Roster moves: RHP Luis Cessa assigned from Washington (MLFA, released by Albuquerque, 6/29); C Steven Williams reassigned from Wilmington.

Akron 6 Harrisburg 3
• M. Cuevas (L, 2-4) 4IP, 4H, 3R, 3ER, 3BB, 3K, HR
• Sinclair 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 1K
• Lipscomb 3-5, R, 2B(5), HR, RBI
• Arruda 1-2, R, 2BB, 2B, CS(5)

An early 1-0 lead went buh-bye with a three-run HR in the 2nd as the RubberDucks doubled up the Senators, 6-3. Cuevas gave up four hits total and walked three while striking out three over four innings. It was his fourth loss. Harrisburg had but one hit in 14 RISP chances, with J.T. Arruda and Jacob Young hitting back-to-back doubles in the 5th. Trey Lipscomb led the Sens hit column with a homer, double, and a single, followed by Frankie Tostado with a double and a single.

Brooklyn 7 Wilmington 4 (10 inn.)
• Alvarez 5IP, 6H, 3R, 3ER, 3BB, 6K, PO @ 1B
• Powell (L, 0-2) 1IP, 3H, 3R, 2ER, 1BB, 1K
• Sánchez 2-4, RBI
• Shumpert 1-3, R, HR, RBI

Viandel Peña’s pinch-hit, two-run double tied the game in the bottom of the 9th but Wilmington gave the lead right in the 10th for a 7-4 loss. Andrew Alvarez went the first five innings and gave up three runs on six hits and three walks while striking out six. The loss went to Holden Powell, who gave up back-to-back doubles and a walk to the first three batters he faced then fell victim to Jordy Barley’s 12th error, which allowed a third hit to plate a third run. José Sánchez led the regulars with two singles and an RBI while Nick Shumpert homered and Brady House added his 5th double.

Fredericksburg 8 Delmarva 4
• Atencio 5IP, 4H, 0R, 1BB, 7K
• Denaburg (BS, 2; W, 4-3) 2IP, 2H, 4R, 3ER, 3BB, 2K, HR, WP
• Hall 2IP, 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 4K
• Thomas 1-3, 2R, 2BB, HR, 3RBI, 2SB
• Lile 1-3, R, BB, 2B
• W. Perez 1-3, R, RBI

The FredNats blew a 4-0 lead but the Shorebirds gave it back in the late innings for a 8-4 decision in favor of Fredericksburg. Jose Atencio tossed five scoreless innings with four hits, one walk, and seven whiffs. Mason Denaburg gave up multiple runs for the 8th time in 19 appearances, giving up a grand slam for his second blown save, walking three and striking out two over two innings. Delmarva’s ‘pen and defenders were just as inept, with two hit batsmen, two errors, a balk, and a wild pitch led to the last four Fredericksburg runs. Bubba Hall took over for Denaburg and shut down the Shorebirds in the 8th and 9th innings with one hit, no walks, and four strikeouts. Johnathan Thomas led the Fredericksburg offense with two runs, two walks, two stolen bases, and three RBI while hitting his fourth HR.



FCL Nationals 12 FCL Mets 4

The win was credited to Miguel Gomez despite retiring just two of six batters faced and letting in two runners. Nathan Ochoa Leyva singled, walked, and doubled while Zion Pettigrew singled and doubled to lead the F-Nats’ 12-hit parade.
