Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 4, Nashville Sounds (MIL) 1<\/p>\n
The Tides were the only O\u2019s affiliate to win on this night, with Samuel Basallo supporting a strong pitching effort. Basallo went 3-for-5 \u2014 his first three-hit game of the season \u2014 with a pair of doubles and an RBI. Jud Fabian and Vimael Mach\u00edn also had multi-hit games, and TT Bowens hit a two-run homer. Coby Mayo took an 0-for-3 but walked twice.<\/p>\n
The four runs were enough for a strong Norfolk pitching quintet that began with Trevor Rogers, who delivered his best outing of his rehab stint by giving up one run in 4.1 innings. Rogers walked one and struck out four. Four relievers \u2014 Corbin Martin, Roansy Contreras, Grant Wolfram, and Kade Strowd \u2014 silenced the Sounds the rest of the way, with Strowd tossing two scoreless innings for his first save.<\/p>\n
Box score<\/a><\/p>\n Double-A: Portland Sea Dogs (BOS) 4, Chesapeake Baysox 3<\/p>\n The Baysox lost a walkoff when Red Sox<\/a> #6 prospect Jhostynxon Garcia \u2014 nicknamed \u201cThe Password\u201d<\/a> because his first name seems like a bunch of random letters \u2014 led off the bottom of the ninth with a homer off of Juan De Los Santos. Well, who among us hasn\u2019t given up a home run to a guy named Jhostynxon? It\u2019s just part of growing up.<\/p>\n Overall, though, it was a pretty well-pitched game by the Baysox. Right-hander Levi Wells delivered a quality start with six innings and two runs allowed. Chesapeake didn\u2019t manage much offense, though. Third baseman Max Wagner reached base three times with two hits and a walk, but nobody else got on base more than once. Shortstop Jeremiah Jackson hit a two-run homer in the sixth.<\/p>\n This game was supposed to be followed by a second game to make up Friday\u2019s rainout, but that too got rained out. It will not be rescheduled.<\/p>\n Box score<\/a><\/p>\n High-A: Jersey Shore BlueClaws (PHI) 9, Aberdeen IronBirds 8<\/p>\n This game was a real slobberknocker, with tons of offense on both sides. The IronBirds broke out to a 4-0 lead before Jersey Shore tied it, then Aberdeen went ahead again, 7-4, only for the BlueClaws to score five times in their last two innings.<\/p>\n It was a singles parade for the IronBirds, who racked up 11 hits but just one for extra bases. Aberdeen\u2019s offensive star was shortstop Griff O\u2019Ferrall, the Orioles\u2019 second pick in last year\u2019s draft, who was a perfect 4-for-4 with a walk. He drove in three runs, scored two, and stole a base for good measure. Each of the first five batters in the lineup had at least one hit and RBI.<\/p>\n As you might imagine, it was not as much of a banner day for Aberdeen\u2019s pitching staff. Starter Trey Gibson gave up four runs (two earned) in four innings before Zane Barnhart had a disastrous relief outing, coughing up five runs in 1.1 frames.<\/p>\n
