Five wins as the Dunedin Jays game was suspended.  New Hampshire had a big win to keep them in the playoff hunt as Kyle Yates delivered a huge start.  New Hampshire are playing their playoff rival Portland and Ricky Romero couldn't help the team on Friday making Saturdays game even more important.  Yates shut down Portland as the Fisher Cats built a big lead and cruised to the win.  Auburn also won to strengthen their playoff hopes.  Syracuse won in the bottom of the ninth, John Tolisano propelled the GCL Jays to a win and Lansing wins in a team effort.  

Ottawa 4  Syracuse 5

The Chiefs scored a run in the bottom of the ninth to get the win.  With one out Ryan Roberts tripled; Ottawa intentionally walked Adam Lind; Hector Luna grounded to third with Roberts out at the plate; but John-Ford Griffin saved the day with a single to centre to win.  Jeremy Cummings started and gave up three runs, of note Jamie Vermilyea got the win by recording five strikeouts in two innings.

Portland 1  New Hampshire 6

The Fisher Cats continued their playoff battle with Portland and Kyle Yates came through in a big way.  While Ricky Romero wasn't able to keep his team in the game on Friday, Yates pitched a three hitter over 6.1 innings as New Hamsphire built a 6-0 lead.  Dustin Majewski and Aaron Mathews led off the first inning with back to back home runs.  Majewski and Matthews each singled and scored in the third inning and Mathews drove in the last run with a ground ball in the fourth.  In addition to Majewski and Mathews, David Smith and Juan Peralta had two hits each.
