Rochester at Buffalo - postponed
New Hampshire 5 New Britain 1
New Hampshire were outhit 6-7 but New Britain made four errors leading to three unearned runs and that accounted for most of the score differential. Errors played a part in the first three runs scored by the Fisher Cats, the first two scored on errors and the third run came when Kevin Nolan doubled in Shane Opitz who had reached on an error. The last two runs came when Ian Parmley tripled in a walk and a hit batter. Parmley was the only Fisher Cat with two hits.
Joel Pineiro has his best start in the Jays system, he went six innings and had five K's and one walk. It was redemption day for Jimmy Cordero too, he went two innings with four K's off his upper nineties stuff.
Tampa 0 Dunedin 9
Nineteen hits for the Jays versus three for the Yankees. Jeff Hoffman went five innings, he struck out three, walked none and gave up two hits. Hoffman had seven ground ball outs versus two fly balls. Alberto Tirado was just as good, four innings, one hit, also no walks and two K's.
Four hitters had three hits each and three more had two. The three hitters were Christian Lopes, LB Dantzler, Roemen Fields and Derrick Loveless. Fields scored three runs, Dantzler and Lopes drove in three each.
Lansing 5 Dayton 6 - 10 innings
What a day for Ryan McBroom, 5-5 with three RBI's. Oddly he didn't score a run as the hitters behind him didn't do much. Anthony Alford didn't reach base for the first time in 34 games. The beneficiary of McBroom's hits was Richard Urena who had three hits himself and scored two runs.
Chase De Jong went six innings, he was charged with five runs, mainly because of the eight hits he conceded, four were for extra bases, one home run, one triple and two doubles. Starlyn Suriel followed and had faced only one over the minimum for three innings. But he hit the first batter of the tenth. A sac bunt and a single sealed the win for Dayton.
