Triple-A - Las Vegas 51s (4-4)__________________________________
LAS VEGAS 7, FRESNO 5 / 11 (BOX)
Las Vegas was cruising until Josh Smoker and Paul Seward had a meltdown in the 9th, allowing the Grizzlies to come back and tie the game 4-4. This story has a happy ending, as the 51s were able to salvage things and pull out a win. In the 11th, Fresno pitcher James Hoyt lost his ability to throw strikes, and loaded up the bases via two unintentional walks and an intentional one. His replacement, Cesar Valdez, didn't have much better luck, walking the go-ahead run in and allowing one more for good measure.

Advanced-A- St. Lucie Mets (7-3)______________________________
ST. LUCIE 3, BREVARD COUNTY 2 (BOX)
Rickey Knapp, who has looked strong going back to the second half of the 2015 season, turned in a solid performance last night. He was a bit hittable, but was able to keep the damage contained to just a pair of runs over five innings. Down by a run, Michael Katz tied things up in the 5th with a sac fly, and Tomas Nido drove in the winning run with a single. The bullpen held the lead, and St. Lucie won their FSL-best seventh victory.
