New Hampshire's RJ Schreck had a big game and Rafael Sanchez pitched well to get the win for the Fisher Cats. Dunedin shutout Clearwater with Edward Duran having four hits. Vancouver could have won as they led into the ninth inning but the bullpen lost the game for them. It spoiled a great start by Kendry Rojas. Buffalo's bullpen cost them a win despite Alan Roden's four hits. It was only a two win night but there were lots of good individual performances.

Buffalo scored five runs in the first inning, New Hampshire scored six runs in the second inning, Dunedin scored four runs in the first inning. All of them used their early leads to cruise to a win. Vancouver scored just two runs in the first inning but they needed to score two in the eighth to get their win. An org sweep!
A blink ago we were back in school
Smoking by the gym door
Practicing our rock star attitudes
And now we're going down.
Hartford 1 Hampshire 0
Everett Vancouver 6
Dunedin 9 Clearwater 5
Omaha 5 Buffalo 2
Boxscores
Only Buffalo did not find the win column on Tuesday as the affiliates went 5-1.
They said, Joey did this and Joey did that
Oh, that guy was crazy, what a crazy cat
Then something strange would happen, there's trouble on the way
And trouble only means one thing
Joey's on the street again
Joey really ought to be involved in these games, surely? Unfortunately, he's in the throes of a 2-26 slump in AAA, and it's hard to see this having anything resembling a happy ending.
The title is for Glevin. If not Amalfi it was going to be a Schreck pun.
Alex Amalfi had to come into the Vancouver game in the first inning. He and a bevy of relievers held Spokane to one hit over 8.1 innings and Vancouver had some big hits to win easily. Buffalo had a nice win with Alan Roden and Josh Kasevich leading the way. RJ Schreck had a big game for New Hampshire but it wasn't enough. Dunedin lost a low scoring game.
Buffalo's bats were in full working condition as they beat up on Scranton. Jonatan Clase homered and drove in three runs. Vancouver scored a run in the ninth to win. New Hampshire and Dunedin lost.

Adrian Pinto and Kendry Rojas had big games in Vancouver's win. Both could be in New Hampshire soon. Dunedin also won with contributions from both sides of the game. New Hampshire's offense produced 13 hits but they lost, as did Buffalo despite a nice start from Jake Bloss.

Now one and one is two
Two and two is four
I'm heavy loaded, baby
I'm booked, I gotta go
Once upon a time, kids, there was a third major league. The ball park where the Blue Jays will be spending the weekend must be among the last surviving bits of evidence.
Sean Keys hit his first professional home run for Dunedin and later singled in the winning run in the ninth. RJ Schreck homered fr New Hampshire in their win. Buffalo and Vancouver lost.

Reading 5 New Hampshire 4
Spokane 3 Vancouver 0
Dunedin 7 Bradenton 4
Scranton/WB 3 Buffalo 1
A pair of one-run losses at the top. Three shutout wins and a doubleheader sweep at the bottom.
Well, that's a filthy lie. The Blue Jays are not playing in the City of Angels tonight. They're not even playing in Los Angeles County.
All four affiliates conceded double figures in runs and all lost. There were a few nice performances among the hitters.
