New Hampshire was hammered and the Dominican Summer League Blue squad let one get away late, but Buffalo, Vancouver and Dunedin all won. The DSL Red squad's game was rained out. You know what that means? Are you sitting down? It was a winning Tuesday on the farm!

Notes
Rudy Martin Jr., Sean Keys and Nick Goodwin led the Herd's hit parade with three apiece. Keys launched a three-run homer in the first inning to put the Bisons ahead to stay, Goodwin doubled twice and Martin had an RBI single and a stolen base. All nine starters got on base, with eight of them getting a hit. Yohendrick Piñango had a double, a sacrifice fly and threw out a runner at second base. Josh Kasevich was 1-for-5 with an RBI. Grant Rogers got the win with five innings of three-run ball on seven hits, one walk and one hit by pitch. He struck out three and split his outs in play evenly on the ground and in the air. Ricky Tiedemann gave up a run on two hits and struck out two. Chad Dallas followed with 1⅔ scoreless stanzas, offsetting a hit and a walk with a pair of Ks.
Mason Olson was obliterated for nine runs (eight earned) and only recorded four outs. The damage was done on seven hits, two of them home runs. Alex Amalfi allowed two more longballs leading to three runs over 3⅓ innings. Jonathan Todd stranded a runner and pitched 1⅓ shutout innings of one-hit ball. Gage Stanifer worked around a hit and two walks to put up two goose eggs and struck out three. Dub Gleed had the only two-hit game. Tucker Toman singled and walked twice. Victor Arias, Aaron Parker and Carter Cunningham had the other base hits.
Troy Guthrie gave up no runs and no hits in five innings for the C's on Tuesday.
An RBI single by Edward Duran in the seventh inning snapped a scoreless tie for Monty's Mounties. Gable Mitchell had a sac fly in the eighth to score a JoJo Parker single, his first in the Northwest League. Parker had stolen second base and showed good anticipation to advance to third base on a wild pitch that was not that far in front of the catcher. Duran and Jaxson West had two-hit nights and Duran also threw out a runner at second. Maddox Latta singled and walked and Austin Smith had a base knock. Ty Southisene was 0-for-4. Troy Guthrie walked three batters over five no-hit frames, striking out two. Gilberto Batista was the winning pitcher by scattering four hits and striking out two over three shutout innings. Reece Wissinger locked it down for the save, striking out one to offset a one-hit ninth.
Dameury Pena went 3-for-4 with an RBI single that drove in what proved to be the winning run. He scored three times and stole a base. Ryan Cooney belted his first professional home run and drew a walk. Giaconino Lasaracina had a two-run single, a walk and three RBI. Ryan Franden had an RBI single to open the scoring. Blaine Bullard singled, walked and stole his 34th base. Jake Cook had a walk. Lenyn Sosa had an RBI double in two at-bats. Aldo Gaxiola pinch-ran and scored a runner and later added a single. Brandon Barriera was dominant with six punchouts over four no-hit innings, facing just one batter above the minimum. He kept the ball down with five outs on the ground and just one in the air. Brayden Heidel was the winning pitcher by also tossing a no-hitter over three frames, but he gave up a run on three walks while whiffing three. He had four of his six outs in play on the dirt. Nathan Higgins gave up two runs in an inning but fanned two. Gavin Seebold struck out the side in a perfect ninth.
In the Dominican, Michael Mesa had the lone two hits and singled home a run. Celwin Hurkmans was one out short of five innings but only gave up two runs in 4⅔s on four hits and a walk. He struck out one but got eight outs on the ground. Manny Parra took the loss after being charged with six runs in two-thirds of an inning.
