*All results from games played on Saturday, July 22, 2017

Triple-A - Las Vegas 51s (37-63)

MEMPHIS 2, LAS VEGAS 1 (Box)

Ricky Knapp was pretty solid over his seven innings, allowing just two runs on four hits, but those two runs would be all the Redbirds would need, as the Amed-less 51s scratched out only a single run, a Jayce Boyd solo homer in the seventh.

Double-A - Binghamton Rumble Ponies (52-43)

HARRISBURG 7, BINGHAMTON 3 (Box)

Make it four in a row for the Ponies now. Another day, another loss. Harrisburg took the lead in the first, and after coughing it up, had a big fifth inning that saw them retake and keep it.

Advanced-A - St. Lucie Mets (11-18/44-53)

FLORIDA 5, ST. LUCIE 4 / 15 (Box)

What a heartbreaker. Down to their last out, Jhoan Urena hit a single past the first baseman to score a run and tie the game. Fast forward to the fifteenth inning, and Patrick Mazeika delivered his own RBI single with two outs, giving St. Lucie the lead. Alex Palsha, who is normally reliable, had one of the worst outings of his and any career, giving up a hit and plunking three batters. Anfernee Seymour, who was 0-6 coming into the at-bat, had one of the most productive at-bats a guy who went 0-7 can, delivering a walk-off sac fly.

• CF John Mora: 3-7, R, RBI, 2 K, SB
• 2B Michael Paez: 0-7, 4 K
• 1B Peter Alonso: 2-7, R, 2B, K

Low-A - Columbia Fireflies (12-16/52-44)

COLUMBIA 4, KANNAPOLIS 0 (Box)

Another day, another shutout for the Colaflies. Ho hum. Justin Brantley got the start, but Columbia’s 13th shutout was more due to the hard work of everyone that pitched, and not just the starter. Adam Atkins, Matt Pobereyko , and Adonis Uceta logged 5.1 innings out of the bullpen and navigated out of trouble to preserve the shutout. The offense, meanwhile, did their thing, with Dash Winningham doing the heavy lifting and driving in two with his team-leading thirteenth home run of the season, Jacob Zanon and Luis Carpio each stealing two bases, and Andres Gimenez finishing a home run shy of the cycle.

• SS Andres Gimenez: 3-4, 2B, 3B, BB, K, SB (9), CS (6)
• 2B Luis Carpio: 0-4, BB, 2 SB (14, 15)

• C Dan Rizzie: 2-4, 2B
• DH Brandon Brosher: 0-2, BB, 2 K, HBP
• RF Arnaldo Berrios: 1-4, RBI, 2 K
• 3B Colby Woodmansee: 0-4, 3 K
• LF Ian Strom: 1-4, R
• RHP Justin Brantley: 3.2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, HB
• RHP Adam Atkins: 2.1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K, W (2-0)
• RHP Matt Pobereyko: 2.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 K, H (1)

Short-A - Brooklyn Cyclones (11-21)

CONNECTICUT 2, BROOKLYN 1 (Box)

Brooklyn’s modest four-game winning streak came to an end at the hands of the Tigers. Darwin Ramos and Jake Simon tag teamed to the tune of two earned , both in the bottom of the first, but the Tigers’ pitching corps was just slightly better, allowing a single run. The Cyclones’ lone run came in the fourth, when the bases were loaded up on a single and a pair of errors, and Ricardo Cespedes singled home Quinn Brodey. Jose Maria, Carlos Sanchez, and Leon Byrd all came to the plate with ducks on the pond, but all three came up empty, with Brooklyn going 1-10 with RISP.

Rookie - Kingsport Mets (12-16)

PRINCETON 8, KINGSPORT 7 / 10 (Box)

The Kingsport Mets went homer happy, as Hansel Moreno and Wagner Lagrange both left the yard, but in the end, a faulty bullpen blew a two run lead in the sixth, and then the game in the tenth.
