Tonight marked the first time in over a month that Robert Osuna pitched for Lansing.  Marcus Stroman started on the mound today vs Erie, and performed well.


Buffalo 4 – Scranton/WB 1

Since Thad Weber was sent to Toronto, Dave Bush was given the unexpected start and was brilliant.  He went 6 innings of 2 hit ball, with 0 walks, and 5 strikeouts.

Luis Jimenez, Mauro Gomez, and Jim Negrych had 2 hits, with Mauro Gomez having a 2 run blast, his 16th of the season.

 

New Hampshire 3 – Erie 2

Marcus Stroman, had another strong start going 5 innings giving up 4 hits, 1 earned run, to go along with 3 walks, and 8 strikeouts.

Kevin Pillar was 2-3, with a walk, Jack Murphy had 3 hits, and Brian Van Kirk had 2 hits to go along with 2 RBI’s.

 

Dunedin 0 – Clearwater 2 (7 Innings)

Scott Copeland had a great start giving up only 2 earned runs over 6 innings.

But, unfortunately Dunedin’s offense managed to only put up 4 hits, and no runs.

 

Lansing 3 – West Michigan 4 (10 Innings)

Daniel Norris started today’s game but only managed to go 1.2 innings before leaving the game with an injury.   Tucker Donahue was given the loss in extra innings, as he gave up 2 hits, 2 walks, and then the eventual game losing run.

Dwight Smith was 3-5 with a double, and Aaron Munoz, was 3-4 with a double as well. 

 

Lansing 2 – West Michigan 0 (7 Innings)

Robert Osuna had his first start in nearly a month since sitting out with elbow issues.  He was brilliant in his return going 5 innings, giving up 2 hits with 0 walks and 5 strikeouts.  Side-armer Wil Browning closed out the game going 2 innings, of 1 hit ball with 2 strikeouts.

Lansing had only 2 hits today, but that was more than enough, as Kevin Patterson hit a 2 run bomb after Christian Lopes singled.
