Binghamton (47-52) 2, Portland 1 Box Score
- Matt Oberste 1B; 1 for 4, .296
- Amed Rosario SS; 1 for 4, 1 2B .354

- Kevin McGowan RHP; 2 IP, 2 H, 1 BB, 4 K (1.90
- David Roseboom LHP; Perfect 9th, K, S (6th save, 2.23)
The Akeel Morris trade has given Roseboom an opportunity to close out games and he certainly has made the most of it. B-Mets pitching held MLB top prospect Yoan Moncada to a 0 for 5 night with five strikeouts.
Lakeland 9, St. Lucie (52-45) 3 Box Score

Lexington 12, Columbia (44-55) 11 Box Score
- Eudor Garcia 1B; 2 for 5, 2 R, HR (3rd) .224
- Dash Winningham DH; 3 for 5, 2B, R, HR, 3 RBI, .248
- Enmanuel Zabala CF; 3 for 5, R, RBI, .293
- JC Rodriguez 2B; 2 for 5, 2 R, HR, 2 RBI, .240
The Fireflies bats came alive in this one, slugging three home runs but it was not enough as the pitching staff had a horrible performance blowing a 7-4 lead in the 8th and then giving up the game winning run in the bottom of the 9th after tying it up 11-11.
- Gaby Almonte RHP; 5 IP, 4 H, 3 ER, 2 BB, 3 K, (6.19)
- Craig Missigman RHP; IP, ER, L, (1-2 2.98)
Brooklyn (17-19) 3, Staten Island 0 Box Score
- Desmond Lindsay DH; 1 for 4, RBI
- Peter Alonso 1B; 1 for 3, 2B, BB, .315
- Jay Jabs LF; 2 for 4, 2B, R, .216
- Michael Paez SS; 1 for 4, RBI, .194
Desmond Lindsay made his second start at Brooklyn as a DH. It appears Gamboa is easing the top prospect back into the flow of things after another hamstring injury.
- Thomas Szapucki LHP; 5.1 IP, 4 H, 0 ER, 3 BB, 8 K, W (1-0 debut)
Szapucki was making his first Brooklyn start and had another stellar performance. This guy is missing a lot of bats, striking out 55 batters in 34.1 innings.
