Triple-A: Las Vegas 51s (28-42)
OKLAHOMA CITY 5, LAS VEGAS 3 (BOX)
Corey Oswalt got off to a shaky start, allowing three runs in the bottom of the first, but settled down and put up zeroes for the rest of his time on the mound. Having scored in the first, the 51s brought the lead within one run when they scored in the sixth, but the bullpen let the team down. Kyle Regnault gave up a home run to Alex Verdugo in the seventh to make it a 4-2 ballgame, and Gerson Bautista gave up an RBI double to pinch hitter Kyle Garlick in the eighth to make it a 5-2 game. Peter Alonso drove in his first Triple-A RBI in the ninth, bringing home Kevin Kaczmarski with a single, and had the bullpen held the lead, that RBI would’ve tied the game. Instead, it meant nothing, and the 51s lost their 42nd ballgame.

Double-A: Binghamton Rumble Ponies (34-34)
HARTFORD 4, BINGHAMTON 3 / 11 (BOX)
Mickey Jannis’ knuckleball was a bit hittable, but so was Yard Goats starter Jack Wynkoop. The knuckleballer allowed eight hits and walked one, but ended up allowing only two runs, both in the second. Wynkoop’s afternoon was very similar, allowing eight hits but only two runs, both in the third. The score stayed tied 1-1 until the seventh, when Tim Tebow hit a ground rule double and was driven in by Kevin Taylor a few batters later. The lead didn’t last very long, as Brendan Rodger drove in a run in the bottom of the inning, tying things up at 2-2. The game stayed tied at 2-2 into extra innings, and after both teams squandered a chance to score the stupid automatic runner by getting him to third with less than two outs, Hartford finally was able to get him home in the bottom of the eleventh.

Advanced-A: St. Lucie Mets (27-36)
NO GAME (ALL-STAR BREAK)
Low-A: Columbia Fireflies (34-33)
COLUMBIA 8, HAGERSTOWN 2 (BOX)
In their final game of the first half, the Colaflies steamrolled over the Suns. Yeizo Campos, who also started on Mother’s Day, was effective, allowing a pair of runs over five innings. The two runs that he allowed let Hagerstown tie the game at 2-2, but both he and the Columbia bullpen combined to blank the Suns, while the Columbia offense were able to break through, plating three runs in the fifth to retake the lead and three runs in the ninth to put the death knell on the Hagerstown.

Short-A: Brooklyn Cyclones (2-1)
BROOKLYN 4, STATEN ISLAND 2 (BOX)
With their win yesterday afternoon, The Cyclones won their opening weekend series against Staten Island, the first time since 2015 that they have done so. Neither offense is particularly good, as evidenced by the eight strikeouts Nicolas Debora notched in four-plus innings and the seven Staten Island starter Roansy Contreras recorded, but the Cyclones got on the board first, plating a run in the top of the first. Twenty-eighteen draftee Brian Sharp added to their lead in the second with an opposite field home run, but the Yankees plated runs in the fourth and fifth, tying things up at 2-2 apiece. The score stayed tied for a few innings until the eighth, when the rehabbing David Thompson led off the inning with a double and was driven home by Wagner Lagrange. In the ninth, the Cyclones scored another run when Thompson drew a walk with bases loaded that forced in Kevin Hall. Ronnie Sanchez tossed a 1-2-3 ninth, shutting the book on Staten Island and making the 2018 Ferry Series 1-0 in their favor.
