NOTES


Buffalo headed to the ninth inning down by two runs. Addison Barger had an infield single and with two outs Davis Schneider came to the plate. Boom, tied game. It was his 19th home run. Earlier Rafael Lantigua had hit a grand slam and Stevie Berman a solo shot. In the tenth Tanner Morris singled in the winning run.


Thomas Hatch was the winning pitcher. He pitched the ninth, then struck out the side in the tenth.


For NH Jimmy Robbins was pitching well. After not getting out of the first inning against this same Portland team on Tuesday he cruised through five shutout innings. He walked a batter, Trevor Story, and gave up a single before giving way for Mason Fluharty. Fluharty threw gas on the fire, a walk, a single and two doubles later the Fisher Cats were down 6-0.


Those six runs were more than enough as NH were no hit. They did score two runs, both times the runs came after two walks in the inning.


Vancouver had 12 hits but lost. They used five pitchers and each one gave up runs.


Josh Kasevich reached base five times, two hits and three walks. He had three RBI. Jommer Hernandez was 3-5 with three RBI. Gabriel Martinez and Estiven Machado had two hits each.


Irv Carter has had some control issues this season. That was the case on Sunday. He was taken deep four times and allowed eight runs in four innings.


Edward Duran hit his first home run of the season and added a single. Jeffrey Wehler also had two hits.
