NOTES
It was another bullpen game for Buffalo and Zac Pop and Connor Cooke each conceded a couple of runs in the early innings. The Bisons were down 5-1 leading to the seventh. In that inning Spencer Horwitz and Ernie Clement singled in runs while Orelvis Martinez doubled in a run. Tanner Morris followed with a two run home run to give Buffalo the lead. The teams traded runs in the eighth but the Bisons took a one run lead into the ninth. And just like Friday, the bullpen couldn't close the door and the Mets won.
Nathan Lukes and Spencer Horwitz each had three hits and they both are hitting .338 for the season.
Chad Dallas continued his record of being very good or very bad. On Saturday it was very bad, 12 hits and seven runs in 4.2 innings. Trailing 9-1 in the sixth Phil Clarke and Michael Turconi homered to make it a 9-4 game. But that was as close as NH could get.
The Fisher Cats had just four hits, Clarke had two of them.
Vancouver built an 8-4 lead headed to the ninth. Cade Doughty, Ryan McCarty and Garrett Spain had all hit home runs to build the lead. Unfortunately Spokane scored four runs in the ninth to tie the game. That set Garrett Spain up to hit his second home run of the game to walk off Spokane. It was his third hit of the game. McCarty, Doughty, Peyton Williams and Jommer Hernandez had two hits each.
Rafael Sanchez started and went six innings. He gave up three runs, two earned.
Dunedin were outhit 9-5 but still won, scoring six runs with those five hits. Glenn Santiago hit a home run. Nicolas Deschamps had a big game. He was hit by a pitch in the second inning, went to third on a single and then stole home as part of a double steal. He had an RBI single in the fourth. He walked in the sixth, had a sacrifice bunt in the ninth. Then in the eleventh inning with a runner on third, he hit a sac fly to end the game. He was 1-1 with a walk, two sacrifices, two RBI and a steal of home.
Kendry Rojas started and went 4.1 innings, 67 pitches. He struck out six while allowing two runs in three hits.
