Triple-A - Las Vegas 51's (31-29)_______________________________________
EL PASO 4, LAS VEGAS 1 (Box)
Darin Gorski was actually pretty solid, but the Las Vegas bullpen couldn't hold the Chihuahuas back late. With the game tied 1-1 in the 8th, Zach Thornton and Chase Bradford combined to allow three runs. With seven losses in their last ten games, Wally Backman's club can't even buy wins right now. Thanks to their crazy winning streak earlier in the year, the 51s are still in first place, but the Chihuahuas are nipping on their heals at only 2.5 back.

Double-A - Binghamton Mets (28-29)_____________________________________
BINGHAMTON 8, BOWIE 1 (Box)
Rainy Lara was solid for seven innings, allowing the B-Mets to triumph over the Bowie Baysox in convincing fashion. Despite struggles in the first for both Lara and Elih Villanueva, both pitchers recovered and tossed five innings of shutout ball. Binghamton finally got to Villanueva in the top of the 6th, plating three runs. The Baysox scored their one and only run in the bottom of the 6th, but Binghamton kept the pressure on, plating four runs in the 8th and one more in the 9th against the Bowie bullpen.

Advanced-A - St. Lucie Mets (30-28)_____________________________________
ST. LUCIE 3, DAYTONA 2 / 10 (Box)
It took them ten innings, but the St. Lucie Mets got the best of the Tortugas, taking the second game of the four-game set. Daytona got on the board first, plating a run in the 2nd but St. Lucie tied things up in the 4th when Amed Rosario hit an RBI single into center that plated Dominic Smith. Daytona took the lead again in the 5th, but St. Lucie tied it up for a second time in the 8th when Junior Felix Arias, the Tortugas centerfielder, bobbled when should have been a Maikis De La Cruz out, allowing Yeixon Ruiz to score. In the 10th, Smith put the Mets ahead, singling right back up the originator to plate Jeff McNeil. Akeel Morris shut the door, and that was that.

Low-A - Savannah Sand Gnats (31-27)__________________________________
SAVANNAH 9, WEST VIRGINIA 1 (Box)
Powered by two four-run innings, the Sand Gnats crushed the West Virginia Power for their seventh win in a row. West Virginia scored a run early off of Casey Meisner on a Pablo Reyes solo homer, but that 1st inning run would be their only run. Savannah took the lead in the 3rd and never looked back. In both innings, Eudor Garcia provided the muscle, hitting two two-run homers.
Because the Greenville Drive lost to the Augusta GreenJackets, extending their losing streak to seven games, Savannah is now tied for first place in the South Atlantic League Southern Division.
