Syracuse vs. Rochester – PPD
Rain washed away Game Three (pictured) of the series between Syracuse and Rochester. They’ll make it up with a doubleheader on Saturday. Roster moves: C C.J. Stubbs reassigned from Harrisburg.

Akron 5 Harrisburg 4 (7 inn.)
• Thompson 1IP, 3H, 1R, 1ER, 0BB, 0K

• Glasser 1-4, 2B(10)

After afflicting their fans with a 147-minute rain delay, the RubberDucks rewarded those who stuck around with a 5-4 win in shortened-by-rule seven innings. Mason Thompson warmed up the Akron bats with a first-inning BP for one run on three hits with no walks and no strikeouts. Kyle Luckham came on and went the next four, giving up four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out five. He was tagged with the loss, his third. The Senators squeezed four runs from five hits and five walks, but went 0-for-5 with RISP and left four runners on base. Roster moves: RHP Travis Sykora promoted from Wilmington; LHP Dustin Saenz reassigned from Rochester; C Matt Suggs reassigned from Wilmington.

Hudson Valley 0 Wilmington 0 – SUSP.
• Bennett 4IP, 4H, 0R, 0BB, 3K
• Lawson 1-2
• Cruz 1-1

The game got started in Wilmington but was halted with 0-0 tie after four innnings. After waiting 91 minutes, they sent the players and fans packing. It’ll be completed this afternoon—weather permitting—followed by a seven-inning game. Roster moves: OF Jared McKenzie demoted from Harrisburg.



Kannapolis 7 Fredericksburg 3 (11 inn.)
• D. Garcia 5IP, 0H, 0R, 2BB, 5K
• Minckler (L, 2-5) ⅔ IP, 2H, 4R, 3ER, 3BB, 1K, HBP, WP
• Barbieri 1-3, R, BB, RBI, SB(5)
• K. Diaz 1-2, BB, 2CS

A pitcher’s duel in regulation quickly turned into a battle of who could play worse, with the FredNats “winning” by handing the Cannon Ballers a 7-3 win in 11 innings. The loss went to Ryan Minckler, who retired two of eight batters while allowing three free runner and three of his own on two hits, three walks, and a Robles. Fredericksburg starter Davian Garcia tossed five no-hit innings, issuing two walks, fanning four, and catching one looking. The FredNats singled four times but just once in 11 RISP chances as they were unable to make Kannapolis pitchers pay for issuing seven walks. Roster moves: CF Enmanuel Ramirez placed on the 7-day I.L.
