St. Paul Saints 3, Toledo Mud Hens 1 boxThe Saints made it two in a row over the Hens at home in a low scoring game on Wednesday Troy Watson got the start for Toledo and he was outstanding. Watson onehit the Saints for five innings, striking out nine while walking one. He didn allow a run and racked up 18 whiffs along the way, mostly on his cutter and sweeper. His fourseamer maxed out at 96.4 mph, and Watson high spin breaking stuff gave the Saints a lot of , while they weren striking out as much as the Saints, the Mud Hens lineup had just as much trouble with Saints starter Kendry Rojas, who blanked them on four hits and a walk for four innings. The Saints bullpen was almost as first inning summed things up well. Parker Meadows started his rehab assignment by hammering a ball to the center field wall for a leadoff triple. HaoYu Lee was hit by a pitch, but a popout, strikeout, popout combo stranded them both and set the tone for the later singled as well, getting three plate appearances and playing center field for five innings before he was Hens managed to break through first in this pitching duel. Gage Workman dropped down a bunt single to open the bottom of the seventh inning, and HaoYu Lee doubled him in. A wild pitch moved Lee to third, but JustynHenry Malloy struck out, Max Anderson popped out, and Akil Baddoo grounded out to strand him. Pretty frustrating night for the Hens had a 10 lead, but it didn last long. Bailey Horn took over in the seventh inning, but in the eighth he ran into trouble. Carson McCusker led off the inning with a double, and Jose Miranda mashed a tworun homer to take a lead the Saints wouldn Keirsey Jr. launched a solo shot off of Alex Lange in the top of the ninth, and in the bottom half Workman and Malloy drew walks, but Anderson and Baddoo made unproductive outs to squander their last shot at a : 24, RBI, 2B, K, SBMeadows: 23, 3B, KWatson: 5.0 IP Michael Pineda Jersey, 0 R, H, BB, 9 KErie SeaWolves 3, New Hampshire Fisher Cats 2 boxAndrew Sears pitched another good game and the SeaWolves rallied late to take down the Fisher Cats on still isn punching out too many hitters, but he is effective. The lefthander allowed seven hits, but other than a tworun homer allowed in the four he was able to wiggle out of trouble SeaWolves offense wasn doing much of anything for most of this game. They squandered hits from John Peck and Josue Briceo in the first, and didn break through to score until the one out, Jake Holton drew a walk, and Seth Stephenson lined a single into center field. Robeto Campos struck out, but Eliezer Alfonzo lined a tworun double and then scored on a Danny Serretti single. With that they seized a 32 lead and they wouldn give it Kuhn took over from Sears in the bottom of the seventh, and promptly walked leadoff hitter Dasan Brown. Fortunately, he got a double play ball to erase him before giving up a double and then getting out of the Michael had to ipitch around a Kevin McGonigle error in the eighth and a walk issued in the ninth, but he was up to the task, earning his first save of the year with the : 12 Kyle Finnegan Jersey, R, 2 RBI, 2B, 2 BBSerretti: 24, RBIBriceno: 24, 2 KSears: 6.0 IP, 2 ER, 7 H, BB, 3 KGreat Lakes Loons 6, West Michigan Whitecaps 2 boxRayner Castillo struggled in his start and the Whitecaps didn have much going at the plate on Wednesday has been a little better lately, but he reverted in this one, giving up three runs in the first and one more before getting lifted in the fourth. Duque Hebbert took over and cleaned up the inning, but he gave up two more runs in the fifth and that was all the Loons needed in this Whitecaps got a twoout walk to Izaac Pacheco and then a Garrett Pennington single in the first, but Austin Murr lined out. They had one baserunner in each of the next four innings, but couldn do anything with those opportunities in the sixth, Pennington was hit by a pitch with one out, and Murr doubled him to third. The Loons went back to the bullpen, but Brett Callahan spanked a single back through the box to plate both runs. The Loons still led 62, but there was a glimmer of the eighth, Murr walked with one out and was wild pitched to second. Callaham walked, and a wild pitch put baserunners on second and third. Unfortunately, Jackson Strong struck out, and Patrick Lee grounded out back to the pitcher to end the inning, and essentially, the Pacheco tossed two innings of scoreless relief with a walk allowed against three strikeouts, and appears to finally be rounding into better form after struggling to come back from a litany of injuries the past few years. Haden Erbe had a little in the eighth, but escaped a little jam to keep the door open for his offense just couldn string anything together or land a big blow in this : 13 Sawyer Gipson-Long Jersey, 2 RBI, BB, K, SBMurr: 12, R, 2B, 2 BBPenney: 14, BB, KCastillo L, 46: 3.1 IP, 4 ER, 7 H, 2 BB, 2 KLakeland Flying Tigers 3, St. Lucie Mets 1 boxThere wasn much offense in this one, but Flying Tigers pitching won out as they evened the series at a game apiece on Wednesday.A pair of Jack Goodman errors at shortstop led to the Mets scoring a run in the bottom of the first, but otherwise the Flying Tigers pitching was too much for them. Gabriel Reyes made a short start, tossing three innings with two hits and two walks allowed, striking out three. His day ended poorly when he was smoked by a 105 mph line drive back at him. He appeared to block it from hitting his head with his pitching hand, and he would have to leave the Briceno and Eliseo Mota each threw a pair of scoreless frames in relief of Reyes, with Mota punching out three hitters. Neither pitcher allowed a Flying Tigers lineup threatened in the third and the fourth innings with multiple baserunners, but couldn score in either case. They finally broke through in the sixth. Jesus Pinto led off with a single, and after Carson Rucker struck out, Junior Tilien doubled Pinto to third. Samuel Gil reached on a swinging bunt but Pinto held at third. That worked out when Cristian Santana doubled in all three runs with a scorched line drive to left.
