Indianapolis 6 Rocehster 4
• Watkins (L, 7-7) 7IP, 10H, 5R, 5ER, 1BB, 4K, 2HR
• Meneses 2-4, R, 2B(10), RBI
• Adams 1-2, 2R, HR, RBI
Rochester scored two in the 1st and two in the 9th. In between, not so much as Indianapolis tied the game with two in the 4th and went ahead for good with a three-run 5th en route to a 6-4 win. Spenser Watkins ate seven innings and gave up five runs on ten hits (two HR) and a walk and four whiffs. It was his seventh loss. Joey Meneses ans Stone Garrett both doubled while Riley Adams homered to lead the Red Wings offense.
Reading 3 Harrisburg 0
• Saenz (L, 1-5) 6IP, 3H, 1R, 1ER, 3BB, 3K, WP
• Peterson 1IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• De La Rosa 2-4, 2B(5), CS
• Lawson 2-3, 2B, SB(10)
The Fightins knocked out the Senators, 3-0 on seven hits to even the series. Dustin Saenz was not to blame as he turned in six innings of one-run ball for his first quality start of the year. He nevertheless lost for the 5th time at AA. Jeremy De La Rosa singled and doubled for his third multi-hit game of September while Cortland Lawson matched him hit-for-hit and added a stolen base and a Robles. The rest of the lineup went 3-for-25, including 0-for-4 with RISP.
Fredericksburg Nationals – OFF DAY
Fredericksburg will be in Zebulon, NC for at least one night, possibly two, as they lead the Carolina League Division Series, 1-0. That’s two chances to beat first-half champion Carolina with the staff ace Travis Sykora on the bump tonight for perhaps as many as five innings, six if he can keep his pitch count down. The bad news is the Mudcats are sending 19-y.o. Manuel Rodriguez, who dominated the FredNats in two regular-season starts, giving up two runs on seven hits over 13 innings and striking out 13. He hasn’t faced the current 3-4-5 trio of Seaver King, Kevin Bazzell, and Chad Lomavita, so it may be fair to say as they go, so will Fredericksburg.
