Notes
Riley Tirotta ripped a three-run homer and drew a walk. Rafael Lantigua singled home two. The only Bison with two hits was Alan Roden. Damiano Palmegiani was 0-for-5 but drove in the winning run on a groundout. Aaron Sanchez gave up four runs (three earned) over five innings, including a two-run homer by Brett Baty. Sanchez surrendered five hits and three walks and hit two batters while striking out four. Paxton Schultz (1.2IP) and Brandon Eisert (1.1IP) both surrendered solo dingers. Yerry Rodriguez put up a scoreless ninth with two whiffs. Hayden Juenger was the winner with a perfect 10th.
CJ Van Eyk took the loss by giving up two runs on five hits, two walks and a hit by pitch over six innings. He struck out three and recorded seven outs on the ground. Dahian Santos struck out four over 1-2/3 innings but needed Adrian Hernández to strand a walk and a plunk. Hernández got the final four outs, including a strikeout. Devonte Brown and Gabby Martinez had two hits apiece with Brown getting a double and a plunking. Alex De Jesús had a two-bagger. Josh Kasevich and Rainer Nuñez drew a base on balls.
Dasan Brown homoered and Nick Goodwin singled home a Peyton Williams triple for the only two Vancouver runs. Williams and Goodwin had two hits apiece and Robert Brooks singled and walked. Pat Gallagher was roughed up for four runs in 2-2/3 innings to take the loss. Alex Amalfi stranded two runners for Gallagher and struck out seven over 3-1/3 scoreless stanzas. Aaron Munson rang up four batters over his two innings of work.
Christian Feliz walked, stole second and scored on an error in the second inning. That lead lasted until the sixth when Ryan Watson gave up two runs in the sixth for a six-inning complete-game loss. He was one out away from getting out of trouble but gave up a hit to former Jays farmhand Angel Del Rosario which was followed by two-run scoring doubles. Watson struck out four without a walk. Dunedin was held to three walks with Victor Arias and Nicolas Deschamps drawing the other free passes. Arjun Nimmala was 0-for-3 with a strikeout.
Sam Shaw and Dariel Gomez had back-to-back doubles to tie the game for the F-Jays in the fourth inning. Enmanuel Bonilla was 0-for-2 and is now hitting just .184. Daniel Guerra gave up a run on two hits and a walk with six Ks over four innings. Luis Torres struck out three batters and put up two goose eggs.
Dariel "Razor" Ramon singled home two runs for the Dom-Jays to snap a 1-1 tie in the fourth. Randy Soto had a perfect day at the dish by going 2-for-2 with two walks. Silvano Hechavarria strung together seven innings of one-run ball on three hits and a walk and struck out two. Diego Dominguez walked two and whiffed two over two frames for the save.
