Sacramento 6, Las Vegas 0 (41-36) Box Score

Ty Blach held the 51s offense to six hits in a complete game shutout on 94 pitches (Maddux alert!). Cecchini was the only Las Vegas batter to pick up two hits, and Nevin Ashley doubled for the eighth time this season in the fifth inning.

  • Duane Below LHP: 8 IP, 6 H, 4 R (3 ER), 3 BB, 7 K, HR, Loss (4-6, 4.20 ERA)

Binghamton Mets 3 (32-42) Richmond 2 Box Score

Binghamton scored two runs in the eighth on Rosario’s two-out triple to put them in front and extend their winning streak to four games. Rosario is now 7-17 since joining the B-Mets. Wheeler nailed down his sixth save in as many opportunities.

St. Lucie Mets 17 (37-35) Jupiter 0 Box Score

St. Lucie put up their highest scoring total of the season by recording 11 runs over the first three innings, one in the seventh, and five more in the ninth. Becerra led the way with his first home run since August 14, 2015. Every Mets batter had at least two hits except for 1B Michael Katz who struck out in all six of his plate appearances. Knapp, Hepple, and Duff combined for the nine scoreless innings.

Columbia Fireflies 1 Hickory 1 (Suspended) Box Score

Columbia and Hickory were suspended after five innings and the score tied. The game will be completed before Tuesday’s regularly scheduled contest. Joe Tuschak provided the only run for the Fireflies with his fourth home run of the season in the fifth, and Gaby Almonte struck out five batters in five innings.

Roster Notes – Ivan Wilson has retired from baseball and right-handed reliever Christian Montgomery has been suspended. To take their places on the roster outfielder Enmanuel Zabala and reliever Bryce Beeler were promoted from Brooklyn.

Brooklyn Cyclones 6 (5-6) Hudson Valley 5 (10) Box Score

The Cyclones walked off in the bottom of the tenth inning when Knight drove in the winning run on his third hit of the game. He had entered the game in the third inning when Dionis Paulino was hit on the hand with a pitch. Nick Sergakis tied the game in the bottom of the ninth with a two-RBI single. Adam Atkins, who had been dealing with strep throat, made his professional debut with a scoreless eighth.
