Syracuse 5 Rochester 2

• Grissom 1IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, 1K
• Lile 1-2, 2BB, RBI, CS
• Baker 1-4, R, E

Rochester’s bullpen couldn’t keep it close, giving up three in the 7th to turn a two-run game into a 5-0 deficit. Daylen Lile broke up the shutout with a two-run single in the 9th but the Red Wings still fell, 5-2. Chase Solesky lost for the fourth time despite turning in a quality start of two runs on six hits (one HR) and two walks over six innings. Darren Baker, Brady House, Trey Lipscombm, and J.T. Arruda also singled as Rochester had no extra-base hits and just two walks (Lile for both). Roster moves: OF Robert Hassell recalled to Washington.

Chesapeake 6 Harrisburg 4 (11 inn.)
• Conley 5IP, 4H, 0R, 2BB, 5K, PO @ 2B
• Mejia (BS, 1) ⅔ IP, 1H, 4R, 0ER, 2BB, 2K, HR(GS), HBP
• Peterson (L, 1-1) 1⅔ IP, 2H, 2R, 1ER, 2BB, 0K
• Glasser 2-6, R, 3B, E
• Lawson 2-4, BB, 2RBI
• Morales 1-4, BB, 2B(10), SF, RBI

The Senators jumped out to a 4-0 lead after two and then left on 12 baserunners over the next nine innings to lose in extras, 6-4. Bryce Conley tossed five scoreless with four hits and two walks allowed. He struck out five in the no-decision. Erick Mejia walked two, loaded the bases with the “help” of an error by Phillip Glasser, struck out the next two, then was torched for game-tying grand slam to earn the blown save. Harrisburg loaded the bases in the 10th with one out on two walks but Max Romero Jr. ran into the shortstop to be out on interference, which, by rule, gave a single to the batter but kept the bases loaded. Chesapeake then got the next man out and plated two in the top of the 11th to take the lead. The Senators went in order to finish the afternoon with a 3-for-15 mark and 14 total LOB, with 11 walks drawn (one intentional). The loss went to Todd Peterson.

Wilmington vs. Aberdeen – PPD
Aberdeen waited until well past 6pm to make the call to postpone. On social media, where commenters noted that the lack of communication forced fans to show up to find this out. Where they also announced a Saturday doubleheader to make this one up. One can only hope that this comes to fruition. Also seen on social media: Travis Sykora will make his next start for Wilmington.



Carolina vs. Frdericksburg – PPD
Rain washed out Game Two of the series between the Mudcats and the FredNats. Ostensibly, with rain forecast for today, they’ll shoot to make this up tomorrow night.

FCL Mets 8 FCL Nationals 0
• J. Feliz (L, 0-1) 4⅔ IP, 8H, 5R, 4ER, 0BB, 6K, 3E, PO @ 2B
• Colon 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 1K
• Tavarez 2-3

The FCL Nationals were shut out, 8-0 on two hits. Jose Feliz gave up five runs (four earned) on eight hits and no walks and struck out six over four and 2/3rds. He was 1-for-4 with three errors on pickoffs. Feldi Tavarez singled and doubled while Enmanuel Ramirez and Elian Soto both walked once to account for the four (4) F-Nats baserunners.
