NOTES
Bowden Francis started for Buffalo but just went two innings, two scoreless innings. Trent Thornton followed and he was shelled, six runs while getting one out. Paxton Schultz threw five innings to save the bullpen. Hagen Danner pitched an inning. He had a rough start in Buffalo but has been pitching well. He had one bad appearance where he gave up three runs. But Since June 6th he has made 11 appearances and nine of them were scoreless. In those 11 appearances he has thrown 14 innings, ten hits, three walks and 14 K's. He is adapting well to AAA.
Jordan Luplow homered for the second game in a row.
Cade Doughty drove in the first two C's runs, one with a single and another with a home run, his tenth. Eugene scored two in the eighth to tie the game and another in the top of the ninth to take a 3-2 lead. In the bottom of the ninth the first two hitters walked bringing Devonte Brown to the plate. Brown went deep for a walk-off, three run, home run. Prior to that he had walked twice, maybe Eugene should have walked him again.
Rafael Sanchez went six shutout innings, two hits, but just three K's.
For Dunedin Irv Carter gave up seven runs but only two were earned due to errors behind him in the fourth and fifth innings. Carter has an odd delivery that makes it tougher to have good command. He looks like a future reliever to me. The Jays just had five hits.
