NOTES
Yariel Rodriguez started with a target pitch count of 89. He threw 79 in three innings and one batter. He did strike out seven but was charged with two runs on three hits. When he left the game the floodgates opened, Worcester scored ten in the fourth inning. Ryan Burr got the last five outs using 29 pitches. I mention this as he could be the one recalled temporarily if Yimi Garcia goes on the IL.
Buffalo did score six runs on ten hits. Orelvis hit home run number 16 and added a double. As mentioned previously May was not a good month for him, hitting just .205. But he is heating up again, he has hits in nine of his last ten games, going 14-37, or .378. Max McDowell went 3-4. Leo Jimenez came off the IL and went 0-3 with a walk. He played DH.
Even though New Hampshire were shutout Michael Dominguez pitched well. In five innings he just conceded one run with six strikeouts. He walked two.
Rainer Nunez had three of the Cats five hits.
In Vancouver Jackson Hornung hit a two run home run in the first inning. Peyton Williams hit his first Vancouver home run of the season in the fourth. Despite taking the lead the C's were down a run headed to the bottom of the ninth. With one out Dylan Rock homered to send the game to extra innings. Spokane scored a run in the top of the tenth and Vancouver were unable to match them in the bottom of the inning.
Peyton Williams had three hits while Jace Bohrofen had two. Rafael Sanchez started and was charged with three runs over six innings. He struck out four.
Bradenton scored two runs in the top of the ninth to with 4-3. It was probably deserved as they out hit Dunedin 9-3. Dunedin scored all three of their runs with out having a hit in the game. Their first run came on a double steal including Manuel Beltre stealing home. Three walks loaded the bases in the fifth before a sac fly scored the second run. The Jays scored a third run in the sixth with four walks. The Jays had three hits with Beltre having two of them.
Gage Stanifer was the Jays starter, he threw 4.1 innings and gave up two runs won two hits. He walked four and struck out two.
