It hasn't been a good year for New Hampshire and Thursday's game was not great in all aspects. But Addison Barger had four hits and Cam Eden hit a three run home run in the eleventh inning for the win. Buffalo had some big hits and good pitching from four pitchers who have pitched in the majors for a win. Dunedin had a walk off win, just like New Hampshire. Vancouver played a day after clinching a playoff spot and lost.

Buffalo ran up a huge lead and held on for a win and Vancouver clinched a playoff spot in decisive fashion. New Hampshire was swept in a doubleheader and Dunedin fell in extra innings.
Dunedin had a come-from-ahead loss and Vancouver was never ahead. Buffalo and New Hampshire did not lose because they were rained out.
Four games in three days in Camden Yards against the pesky Orioles. Serious times. Serious measures are called for.
Dunedin won both ends of a doubleheader over Tampa to stay in the playoff spot. With one week to go in the season they lead and have a magic number of six. Buffalo, New Hampshire and Vancouver all lost.

Vancouver are in the playoff hunt and they walked off their playoff rivals on Saturday to get their magic number down to two with seven games left. They could clinch a playoff spot today. Elsewhere the affiliates all lost. Dunedin's lead in their playoff hunt dropped to a half game after a three day shortened game.

After suffering a tough loss on Thursday, Buffalo bounced back to win big on Friday. Gabriel Moreno had three hits. Vancouver also had a big win and moved closer to a playoff spot. New Hampshire lost in extras. Dunedin played a little more than on Thursday but were again rained out.

The Jays will be making just their third visit to PNC Park in Pittsburgh. They lost two of three in 2014, when the Pirates were pretty good. They lost two of three in 2008, when the Pirates were pretty awful. I have my own reasons for worrying about the 2022 Pirates. But later for that.
Buffalo were in playoff contention recently but they have hit a tough spell, losing three of their last four and they are slipping behind. They have been short of starting pitching all season and their hitters have cooled. They lost a tough game on Thursday. New Hampshire have no hope of the playoffs and were hammered. Vancouver and Dunedin are the playoff hopefuls. Vancouver are in with a good shot of the playoffs but lost in extra innings last night. Dunedin were rained out.

Vancouver's doubleheader sweep were the only wins on Wednesday. Dunedin was walked off. Buffalo and New Hampshire had nights to forget.
Let's talk about general managing.

Buffalo won big and Dunedin and Vancouver came up with big wins in their push for the postseason. New Hampshire let one get away late.
It's been a while since we've seen these guys.
Avert your gaze if you don't want the bad news. Buffalo were blown out. New Hampshire too. Dunedin were shutout. Vancouver gave Hillsboro a game but they too finally succumbed.
