Notes
Willie MacIver led the Bisons with three hits while Jay Harry and Josh Kasevich had two hits apiece with Kasevich belting his third home run of the year. Davis Schneider doubled and walked. Jake Bloss was mollywhopped for four home runs and 11 runs, giving up 11 hits, hitting two batters and issuing a walk while striking out two. Pat Gallagher pitched two shutout frames of two-hit ball and struck out one.
Aaron Parker and Cade Doughty both homered with Doughty drawing a walk. Victor Arias and Hedbert Perez had two-hit efforts with the latter doubling and stealing a base. Nolan Perry scattered a hit and a walk and struck out seven over three shutout innings in his Double-A debut. Kelena Sauer pitched a shutout fourth with a strikeout. Chris McElvain had a night to forget as he also surrendered four long balls and gave up nine in total over 3⅔ innings. Five of the runs were unearned thanks to a pair of his own throwing errors on pickoff throws. He was charged with a blown save and got the loss. Aaron Munson struck out a batter to end the eighth.
The C's rallied from a 5-0 deficit to pull out the win. Mathieu Vallee started the ninth rally with a one-out base hit and stole second base, even though replays showed he was clearly out. Two-out walks by JR Freethy and Eric Snow loaded the bases and Peyton Williams came through with a two-run single to left to win it. Williams drove in three runs after a fielder's choice plated a Manny Beltre double to get Vancouver on the board in the sixth. Beltre was called back to the dugout in the seventh as Tucker Toman came in to pinch-hit. Toman then delivered a two-out double to bring home Jake Casey who was hit by a pitch after sticking his knee out. Freethy followed with a two-run double to draw the C's to within one. He had two hits and two walks on the night. Snow was on base four times with a hit and three walks. Johnny King struggled through 4⅓ innings in which he gave up four runs on four hits and five walks. A couple of passed balls by Jacob Sharp in the third contributed to King's issues in the third. King struck out three and had four groundball outs. Jack Eshleman gave up a solo jack among his two hits but struck out three over 3⅓ innings. Reese Wissinger was the winning pitcher after stranding two Eshleman runners with a strikeout to end the eighth. He worked around a single and walk in the ninth, thanks to Sharp throwing out a runner trying to steal second to end the frame.
JoJo Parker hit his 18th double of the season to drive in the game's first run and drew a pair of walks. Giaconino Lasaracina was on base four times with a single, a hit by pitch and two walks and Dariel Ramon was aboard thrice with a single and two free passes while stealing two bases. Jake Cook doubled and walked and Brock Tibbits singled, walked and stole two bags. Blaine Bullard walked, had a sacrifice fly, was hit by a pitch and stole his 27th base of the year. Denis Samudio gave up a run on three hits and three walks over four innings in which he fanned three batters. Luis Fonseca was the winning pitcher by striking out three batters over three shutout innings while working around two hits and a walk. Josbel Garcia finished up with two scoreless frames with two Ks and one BB.
The F-Jays had leads of 5-0 and 7-1 only to implode in the later innings. Angel Guzman had two hits, three walks and a stolen base in the leadoff spot and Arjun Nimmala singled twice and had a sacrifice fly in the number two spot. Pascual Archila and Enmanuel Bonilla both had two knocks with Archila homering and adding a sac fly and Bonilla doubling. Seojun Moon gave up a run on three walks over four innings while striking out three. Freigher Barco, Ramon Suarez and Mason Davenport gave up multiple runs with Davenport getting tagged with the loss. Sann Omosako struck out four and stranded two runners over 1⅔ innings to finish up.
In the DSL, Cristopher Polanco had an RBI single and two walks and Juan Caricote had a two-run knock to highlight a two-hit day. Elian Guzman offset two walks with four strikeouts over 1⅔ scoreless stanzas for the Blue squad. For the Red Jays, Elaineiker Coronado had two doubles, a single and an RBI double. Franiel Severino yielded just one hit and struck out two over four shutout frames.
