New Hampshire had the only win Tuesday night. Buffalo's game in Syracuse was rained out.

New Hampshire 12 Harrtford 0

L.J. Talley's three-run homer in the second was all the Fisher Cats needed against the Rockies affiliate. Samad Taylor also went deep for his 15th homer of the year and drew a walk. Chavez Young clubbed his 5th dinger of the year as part of a three-hit night. Kevin Vicuña also had three hits. Tanner Kirwer picked up two doubles and Jordan Groshans had two singles.

Johnny Barbato pitched three shutout innings with just one hit and one hit batteer and struck out five. Parker Caracci was the winner in his Double-A debut with two scoreless frames. Brody Rodning (1.0IP), Marcus Reyes (2.0IP) and Emerson Jimenez (1.0IP) maintained the shutout.


Tri-City 8 Vancouver 5

A seven-run second inning by the Angels affiliate sunk the Canadians in this one. Spencer Horwitz had a perfect night at the dish by reaching base five times, going 4-for-4 with a double and two runs scored. Tanner Morris had the other multi-hit game with two knocks. Sebastian Espino—the High-A West Player of the Week—was 1-for-4 with a walk and two RBI. Orelvis Martinez had a single in five at-bats and drove in a run.

Alex Nolan gave up all eight runs with seven of them earned over 2-1/3 innings. The damage was done on nine hits—including a homer—and two walks with only one strikeout. Justin Maese stranded two runners for Nolan and pitched 2-2/3 shutout innings. Gabriel Ponce worked in two bagels while Cobi Johnson and Willy Gaston also contributed a donut on the linescore.

FCL Tigers West 7 FCL Blue Jays 2 (7 Innings)

Sacrifice flies by Willfrann Astudillo and John Solarte gave the F-Jays a 2-0 lead before the bullpen gave it up over the final three innings. Rikelbin De Castro scored both runs and had half of the Blue Jays hits with two. Amell Brazoban singled, walked and stole a base. Jaden Rudd had the other knock. Gabriel Martinez walked and was hit by a pitch.

Lefty Yaifer Perdomo kept his batterymate Astudillo well air-conditioned by generating 11 strikeouts, scattering two hits and three walks over four shutout innings. Guillermo Villasmil gave up three runs in the fifth to take the loss. Winder Garcia surrendered a solo homer in the sixth and Kelvin Perez served up a dinger and two more runs in the seventh as the F-Jays fell to .500 on the year at 16-16.
