Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (56-56)
BUFFALO 9, SYRACUSE 7 (BOX)
The two teams combined for an impressive twenty-eight hits, but in the end, Syracuse was not as successful as the Herd with runners in scoring position. Arismendy Alcantara, Rene Rivera, and Travis Taijeron all had multi-hit nights, while Dilson Herrera hit his 22nd home run of the season, moving him into sixth in home runs in the International League.

SUSPENDED (RAIN)
Short-A: Brooklyn Cyclones (26-21)
WILLIAMSPORT 4, BROOKLYN 3 (BOX)
A leaky bullpen doomed the Cyclones, who never trailed once until the bottom of the eighth inning. In the fourth, Luke Ritter doubled to put Brooklyn on the board and later scored himself on a Crosscutter fielding error, putting the Cyclones up by two. Bryson Stott plated a run in the bottom of the inning, making it a 2-1 ballgame, but Jake Mangum drew a bases loaded walk in the eighth to give Brooklyn a two-run edge. In the bottom of the inning, Luis Silva fell apart, coughing up the lead.
