• Downs 1-3, 2R, BB, HR(1), RBI, SB(5)
The Red Wings rallied for two in the top of the 9th, highlighted by Jeter Downs’s first HR of the season. Alas, that was far too small for Gerson Moreno to hold as he blew his third save to send it into extras. In the 10th, Daniel Mengden issued an intentional walk to the first batter and a single to batter #2 to lose the game, 9-8. José Ureña made his 12th start for Rochester and ate five innings, with three runs (two earned) on six hits, no walks, and a season-high nine whiffs. Derek Hill reached base four times, scored four times, stole two bases and drove in a run while Travis Blankenhorn walked twice and drove in the first run of the night with his 19th double. Roster moves: UT Jake Alu recalled to Washington; UT Jack Dunn reassigned from Harrisburg; RHP Rico Garcia assigned from Washington (DFA’d by Oakland, 7/10).

Three straight two-out hits by Richmond in the 3rd erased an early 1-0 lead by Harrisburg for a 2-1 decision that the Flying Squirrels held for the win. Cole Henry made another de facto rehab outing, tossing two perfect innings with two strikeouts. The loss went to Odalvi Javier, who gave up the aforementioned two-spot on four hits total over two innings for his first AA loss. Jacob Young and Trey Lipscomb both went 2-for-4 while James Wood accounted for the lone Senators run with his 7th HR at AA and 15th HR overall.

Andrew Alvarez turned in his second quality start, with two runs on six hits and a walk over six innings, and got another no-decision. The loss went to Jaren Zinn, who walked two of five batters faced, with an “assist” from Carlos Romero, who walked in the winning run before getting a strikeout to end the inning.

The DSL Phillies Red got to Leuris Portorreal on their second turn in the lineup, getting two in the 3rd to break a 1-1 tie and cruised to a 5-1 win ovef the DSL Nationals. Portorreal gave up three runs (two earned) on three hits and a walk while striking out two to lose for the second time. Angel Roman tossed four scoreless to keep the game close. Like an ugly stripper, the D-Nats offense came away with just four singles and barely avoided the shutout. The lone run came with the help of a throwing error and came in on a sacrifice fly two batters later.
