Buffalo 0 Worcester 9
Portland 6 New Hampshire 3
Vancouver 7 Spokane 6 - 10 innings
Dunedin 1 Tampa 3 - 5 innings
This is what I noted from yesterday's games.
Another game with seven pitchers used by Buffalo. Nick Allgeyer took the loss but Matt Gage had the worst stats, four runs allowed.
The Bisons had just three hits, all singles. Gabriel Moreno and Spencer Horwitz sat this one out.
Sem Robberse is still getting used to AA. He was taken deep twice, allowed six runs on six hits, but only two runs were earned. All of this in 3.2 innings.
New Hampshire scored two in the first inning on a hit batter and a double play ball. It should have been more. The third run scored on an error. In total the Cats had just six hits, Zach Britton and Davis Schneider led the way with two.
Like Robberse, Dahian Santos has been adjusting to a higher level. When the first inning started with a walk and a double it looked like more trouble but Santos settled down to deliver a good start. Five innings, ten K's and just two runs allowed. Vancouver built a 6-2 lead but Eric Pardinho gave it all back in the eighth and sent the game to extra innings. A ground ball and a sac fly scored a run for the C's. In the bottom of the tenth Spokane bunted the runner to third. The next hitter hit a fly ball to right but Garrett Spain threw home and the runner was out in a rundown.
Damiano Palmegiani hit a three run home run, Gabriel Martinez had three hits. Dasan Brown had two hits and scored two runs.
Dunedin took three days to play 5.1 innings. Three of those inning swere thrown by Luis Severino and Zach Britton so a loss was not unexpected. John Kasevich had two doubles.
