Buffalo
Buffalo built a 3-0 lead versus Durham. Jonathan Davis started the third inning with an infield single. He moved up to second and scored when Dalton Pompey singled. Rowdy Tellez made it 2-0 in the fourth with his eighth home run. Anthony Alford followed with a single and Reese McGuire doubled him in. Thomas Pannone pitched shutout ball through six innings. He gave up a lead off home run in the seventh and a lead off triple in the eighth and now it was a 3-2 game. Pannone was done and Jose Fernandez came out for the ninth. A single and a home run left Buffalo down 4-3. The game ended when Roemon Fields was thrown out stealing. For a fast runner he does not have a good record on steals with 22 steals and 14 caught.
The Bisons had just six hits, Reese McGuire was the only hitter with two. It will be interesting to see what the Jays do with him in September. Pannone's line was 8 6 2 2 0 9.
