NOTES
Buffalo led 7-0 into the ninth when Indy scored three. Orelvis got the party started with his 8th home run. The Bisons then went about adding on, a ground out, a sac fly and a couple of singles made it 5-0. Addison Barger doubled in two more in the seventh. Damiano Palmegiani singled and doubled in his AAA debut. Barger and Tanner Morris also had two hits.
Wes Parsons had an excellent start, he struck out eleven in five innings. Indy had just one hit off him.
Rainer Nunez was the hitting star in this game. He hit a solo home run in the second inning and in a tied game hit a two run bomb in the seventh. Jeffrey Wehler tripled in a run in his AA debut. Miguel Hiraldo doubled in the final run. The Fisher Cats scored seven runs in the ninth helped in part by five walks and a bases clearing triple by Riley Tirotta. Alan Roden was 3-3 with a walk.
In Vancouver Rafael Sanchez was charged with six runs in five innings. However four runs were unearned thanks to two errors by Estiven Machado.
Glenn Santiago, who homered on Friday, tripled to drive in two runs.
Kendry Rojas threw six hitless innings in the first Dunedin game. He walked three and struck out three. He used 74 pitches. There is no statcast in Daytona so we have no pitch details. Grayson Thurman came on for the seventh and had a 1-2-3 inning to complete the no hitter. Dunedin had just four hits in the game and the winning run was unearned. Rehabbing Steve Berman reached on an error and later scored on a single by Brennan Orf.
