*All results from games played on Monday, May 8, 2017

Triple-A - Las Vegas 51s (14-18)

ALBURQURQUE 8, LAS VEGAS 4 (Box)

The 51s got the game started by putting down a two spot in the top of the first, care of a Brandon Nimmo leadoff home run and an RBI sac fly off the bat of Amed Rosario, but the rest of the game was all Albuquerque. The Isotopes tied the game in the bottom of the inning, and then scored an additional three in the third, one in the fifth, and two in the seventh. The 51s made things a little interesting late- they loaded up the bases and scored a run in the eighth, and Amed Rosario hit his second homer of the year in the ninth- but came up short in the end.

ROSTER ALERT: Las Vegas 51s activated LF Victor Cruzado from the 7-day disabled list.

Double-A - Binghamton Rumble Ponies (17-10)

BINGHAMTON 2, PORTLAND 0 (Box)

Corey Oswalt threw seven strong innings, and Kyle Regnault and Alberto Baldonado picked him up in the eighth and ninth to shut the Portland Sea Dogs out. Kevin McAvoy, the Portland starter, was just as good as Oswalt, matching him inning after inning, but their bullpen was not up to the task. Austin Maddox allowed a pair of runs in the top of the ninth, a Tomas Nido RBI single and a Kevin Taylor sac fly, giving the Rumble Ponies a late lead. Alberto Baldonado unintentionally walked Rafael Devers in the bottom of the inning, putting the tying run on first, but was able to finish out the inning without additional damage.

Advanced-A - St. Lucie Mets (13-19)

ST. LUCIE 6, LAKELAND 3 (Box)

St. Lucie got on the board quickly, with Jhoan Urena plating two in the bottom of the first with a double into left and back-to-back hits RBI by John Mora and J. C. Rodriguez in the bottom of the second. The Flying Tigers made it a ballgame by scoring three runs off of Joe Shaw, but in the bottom of the sixth, Wuilmer Becerra and Mora give their team a little breathing room, with the former hitting his third homer of the season and the latter tallying another RBI with a single. The St. Lucie bullpen was strong in finishing the game out, with all three middle relievers earning a hold and Ty Bashlor earning his second save of the season.

Low-A - Columbia Fireflies (15-16)

COLUMBIA 5, LAKEWOOD 1 (Box)

The Fireflies got out to a quick lead when Dash Winningham blasted a home run over the right field wall for a three-run blast, his second of the season. Staked to a three-run lead, Jordan Humphreys went to work, carving up the Lakewood line-up. He went seven innings, giving up a single run on two hits- both in the top of the fourth- giving up one walk and striking out nine. Max Kuhns took over for him in the eighth and finished up the ballgame, doing his part to prevent a four-game sweep.
