Las Vegas 51s (16-22) 10, Iowa Cubs (15-21) 5  Box Score

Rosario got his second start of the season at third base and hit his third home run of the season. Desmond Jennings was hitless in the game, which ended his 11 game hitting streak.

Gilmartin settled in a bit after giving up four runs in the first inning, but was still only able to make it 3.2 innings. The 51s bullpen pitched very well, only allowing one run in their combined 5.1 innings of work.

St. Lucie Mets (17-21) 6, Lakeland Flying Tigers (18-20) 0  Box Score

Urena and Mazeika continue to hit very well. They have a .974 and 1.061 OPS, respectively, on the season. Dale Burdick also hit a three-run home run in the fifth inning.

Church had his best start of the season, tossing 8.1 shutout innings. Justin Brantley came in to get the final two outs in the ninth inning.

Columbia Fireflies (19-16) 6, Lakewood BlueClaws (21-16) 1  Box Score

Jay Jabs also hit his first home run of the season.

After a rough start to the season, which included a short stint on Columbia’s disabled list, Gonzalez had his first dominant start of the season, pitching a complete game in the first 7-inning game of the double header.
