Buffalo blew one late and New Hampshire was rained out but Vancouver and Dunedin came out on the right end of a one-run game. The FCL was embarrassed and the DSL squads split their games to produce a .500 night on the farm.
Jake Casey hit a round-tripper to highlight a well-rounded game for Vancouver on Tuesday.

Notes
The Herd had 10 hits, none of them for extra bases. Josh Kasevich had three of them to continue a hot July where he is batting .385 for the month to push his BA to five points within .300. Ismael Munguia had two hits, Je'Von Ward singled and walked and Davis Schneider walked twice. Simeon Woods Richardson got away with four walks and a hit over three scoreless innings thanks to five strikeouts. Javen Coleman struck out one in a perfect frame in his Triple-A debut. Adam Macko sat down all six hitters he faced, three by way of the K. Buffalo's 3-0 was flushed down the toilet when Brendan Cellucci gave up a run in the eighth and Pat Gallagher was pounded for six runs in the ninth and got just one out to suffer the blown save and loss.
Back-to-back jacks by Jake Casey and Edward Duran in the seventh inning put the C's ahead for good but it was a Tucker Toman two-run shot in the ninth that produced the game-winning RBI. Casey drew a walk, was plunked and stole a pair of bases. JR Freethy and Eric Snow also joined the aforementioned trio in the two-hit club. Eight different members of Mounty's Mounties had at least one hit. Silvano Hechavarria is still trying to find his 2025 form as he yielded three runs five hits and three walks and struck out two over four innings in which he threw 72 pitches. Jay Schueler was the winning pitcher by putting up three perfect innings that included a couple of whiffs. Jack Nedrow was knocked around for 5 runs over 1⅓ innings but was still credited with a hold. Jonathan Todd could not strand his inherited runner but got the final two outs for the save.
Like Buffalo, Dunedin got 10 hits. Unlike Buffalo, Dunedin had five that went for extra bases. Aldo Gaxiola was a home run short of the cycle, driving in five runs with an RBI triple, a two-runs and a two-run RBI single in the ninth to account for the winning run. Juan Sánchez homered, singled, walked, stole a base and crossed home plate four times. JoJo Parker doubled, walked, had an HBP RBI and scored three runs. Blaine Bullard walked twice and scored twice and got an assist in right field to cut down a runner at third base. Enmanuel Bonilla doubled and singled while Jake Cook drew a walk. Denis 'Sussudio' Samudio gave up two runs over 2⅔ on two hits and four walks but struck out five. Luis Victorino stranded two runners for Samudio and was the only pitcher not scored upon with 1⅓ scoreless stanzas. TJ Brock was roughed up for two runs on four hits but struck two in his one inning of work. Josbel Garcia was jolted for three runs over three innings but got the win. Luis Severino surrendered two runs (one earned) in the ninth but got the save.
The F-Jays were struck on the dark side of the moon. Seojun Moon raced toward an early grave with four runs allowed on seven hits and two walks over three innings while ringing up three. Edgar Gallegos, Carson Pierce and Sann Omosako all gave up multiple runs. Pascual Archila drew three walks and David Guzman had the only hit, an RBI single in the ninth.
In the Dominican, Sebastian Casanova was the only one to have two hits for the Blue squad, including an RBI single, and stole his 17th base of the year. Michael Mesa had a double and Isay Veras had an RBI single. Tomoya Kinjo got the start but did not record an out as he walked all three batters he faced. Manuel Parra could only strand one of the three Kinjo runners. The Red Jays had a better time of hit with two hits apiece at the top of the order from Alex Linares, Gabriel Porras and Aneudi Severino. Severino cleared the bases with a triple and was hit by a pitch, Linares walked twice and Porras walked once with the latter two also stealing a base. Elian Reyes walked three times and stole a base. Diego Arce drilled a three-run homer in the ninth. Alieski Torres tossed five perfect frames and struck out four to get the win. Five of his eight outs in play were on the ground. José Melo got the hold with a hit batter as his only blemish, fanning two over three shutout frames. The no-hitter was lost in the ninth.
