NOTES
A pair of three run home runs was enough for Buffalo in their first game. Rafael Lantigua and Charles McAdoo hit them. McAdoo added two singles. He had 60% of Buffalo's five hits. Chad Dallas went three innings, he struck out six, giving up one run on three hits. Adam Macko threw two innings, three K's, one home run allowed. Yariel Rodriguez added a clean inning.
McAdoo hit another three run home run in the first inning of game two. But Grant Rogers gave up five runs in the first inning and that was all the scoring. Buffalo had three hits, Josh Kasevich had the other two.
The New Hampshire bats keep rolling, 12 hits on Friday. The Fisher Cats won in extra innings with the old walk off wild pitch. At the top of the order Eddie Micheletti and Jackson Hornung had two hits each, while Aaron Parker n the idle of the order had three.
Karson Ligon was scheduled to start for Dunedin but didn't make it to the official start. Jaxson West stayed hot with a single, double and walk. Aldo Gaxiola had two doubles, he is hitting just .158 and seems to run hot and cold. Dariel Ramon also had two hits.
The Vancouver game was a pitchers duel. Danny Thompson Jr. made his first start for the C's. He had made two relief appearances but threw 3 or 4 innings so he was being stretched out. On Friday he went four innings with eight strikeouts, one hit and one walk. for the season, in 11.1 innings, he has 19 K's, while giving up four hits and three walks. A very impressive start. It is even more impressive when you note that Thompson was an eight round pick but essentially a money saving pick, he signed for $5,000.
The C's had just five hits, Dub Gleed had two.
