NOTES
It was a bullpen day for the Bisons. Three prospect pitchers were tagged for runs. Hayden Juenger (one run), Yosver Zulueta (2) and Hagen Danner (3) gave up the runs. Juenger was taken deep, no surprise there, but Danner gave up two jacks.
The Bisons did have 12 hits. Spencer Horwitz was 3-4. Nathan Lukes homered to lead off the game, one of his two hits. Tanner Morris also had two hits. Phil Clarke had his first AAA hit, he was 1-1. Clarke was promoted after Stevie Berman went on the IL.
NH scored four runs in the last two innings to win. Andres Sosa and Riley Tirotta drove in runs in the eighth. Sosa was 3-4 with a walk. Alan Roden, Damiano Palmegiani and Will Robertson each had two hits. Miguel Hiraldo hit a three run home run in the fifth inning.
Abdiel Mendoza went five innings, two runs allowed, five K's.
The C's were in a tight contest. The Hops scored a run in the eighth to eke out a one run win. Josh Kasevich had two of the C's six hits, including a double, the C's only extra base hit.
Pat Gallagher made his first high A start. He wasn't efficient needing 77 pitches to get through 3.1 innings. Four hits and one walk combined with three K's.
Dunedin were up 9-3 in the eighth inning but let Fort Myers tie the game. Alex Amalfi was very hospitable as he was charged with five runs without allowing a hit. Three walks, a hit batter and an error. Jiorgeny Casimiri followed Amalfi and gave up a home run. The Jays reclaimed the lead scoring two runs in the eighth. The first of those scored on an error and Manuel Beltre singled in the second.
Dunedin had 16 hits. Seven players had two hits each. New guys Nick Goodwin and Bryce Arnold were in the two hit club.
