Lansing was the only team to get a victory yesterday behind the bats of Cory Patton and Brian Pettway.

Syracuse 4,  Buffalo 8

The Chiefs faced off against CC Sabathia, making his first rehab start for the Bisons.  They scored 2 runs off of Sabathia (one earned).  John Hattig showed off some Man Power with three hits.  The notorious JFG had two hits while Jason Phillips had two hits including a HR.

It was a rough night for the Syracuse pitchers.  Rosario started, but didn't make it out of the third inning.  Relivers Marcum, Tallet and McGowan all allowed runs.

 

New Hampshire - Day Off

 

Dunedin 7,  Tampa 9

Another rough game for the Jays minor league pitchers.  Tampa did the most damage with an eight run 5th inning.  Orlando Trias started and prior to the 5th had only given up one run.  He then allowed 4 runs in the 5th.  Justin James came on in relief, but only retired one of the seven batters he faced.

Dunedin had a balanced attack with Dustin Majewski leading the way going 2-3 with a walk.  Catcher David Corrent also had two hits for the Jays.

 

Cedar Rapids 2,  Lansing 5

Hey, a win!  Chi-Hung Cheng got the start for the Nuts and while he didn't appear to have his best stuff (7 hits and 3 walks in 5 innings) he gave up just two unearned runs.

Cory Patton hit his third home run and went 2-3 with a walk on the night.  Brian Pettway went 3-4 with a double and Luke Heatherington went 2-4 including a double.

 

3 Stars!

3rd star - Jason Phillips

2nd star - Brian Pettway
