Triple-A - Las Vegas 51s (46-42)__________________________________
GAME ONE
ALBURQURQUE 9, LAS VEGAS 8 / 7 (Box)
Down by a run in the seventh- the final regulation inning of the game, due to it being a doubleheader- the Isotopes came from behind to beat the 51s. In his second inning of work, Josh Edgin gave up a solo home run to Tom Murphy to start the ninth, tying the game. A hit batsman and an error allowed Alburqurque to plate the go-ahead run with a sac fly. In the bottom of the inning, Ty Kelly singled and Michael Conforto reached on a catcher interference call, but neither Dilson Herrera nor Matt Reynolds were able to drive in Kelly to force the game into extra innings.

GAME TWO
ALBURQURQUE 5, LAS VEGAS 3 (Box)

Double-A - Binghamton Mets (39-48)____________________________
BINGHAMTON 9, NEW HAMPSHIRE 7 (Box)
Five runs in the sixth inning gave the B-Mets just enough wiggle room to sneak past the Fisher Cats in their longest nine-inning regulation game since July 2013. Binghamton scored first, plating two runs in the third, and kept the pressure on, scoring additional runs in the sixth and seventh. Staked to a 7-0 lead, Rainy Lara and the bullpen let New Hampshire chip away. Lara allowed two runs in the sixth. Luis Mateo allowed two runs in the seventh. Logan Taylor allowed one in the eighth. David Roseboom allowed two in the ninth. In the end, Roseboom stranded the potential tying run in the ninth to notch the series opener.

Short-A - Brooklyn Cyclones (9-12)__________________________________
HUDSON VALLEY 2, BROOKLYN 0 (Box)
Brooklyn pitchers had a decent time, with Gabriel Llanes and Gary Cornish combining to allow just two runs, but Brock Burke and Noel Rodriguez of the Renegades had their way with the Cyclones lineup, allowing just one hit, a Jake Zanon line drive to left in the fourth. Zanon came close to scoring a few innings later, reaching on a fielder's choice and stealing second and third, but he, nor any other Cyclone was able to cross the plate.

The GCL Mets touched up Humberto Mejia in the fourth and fifth, plating a pair and one run, respectively. All of the damage was done by some old fashioned station-to-station hitting.
