Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (4-1) 4, Syracuse (1-4) 2, F Box Score

The offense in Syracuse was only able to put two runs on the board in this one, highlighted by Drury hitting his first home run of the season. Lee continues to get on base as he registered his fifth walk of the season as well as a hit

In his first start for Syracuse, Yamamoto was greeted by a home run off the bat of rehabbing Luke Voit and then proceed to give up two more runs in the first. He would make it through the inning and manage to go three and a third. Reid-Foley continues his good start to his Mets career putting up zeros in two innings just like he has done with the big league club.

Right-hander Trey Cobb tossed 2 2/3 scoreless after being promoted from Binghamton earlier in the day.

Akron (5-0) 5 , Binghamton (0-5) 1 Box Score

Binghamton’s offense struggled again on Saturday night. As a team they struck out 11 times and left ten men on base. Vientos continues his early season struggles going hitless in four at-bats, this was his first pro start at first base.

Campos got the start and looked good through three innings. He now has not given up a run in four and a third innings this season. Gilliam replaced Campos in the fourth and had a night he will soon hope to forget. Unable to finish out the inning, he gave up four runs that ended up being the deciding factor in this one. Tony Dibrell gave up a solo shot in the sixth to finish off the scoring for Akron.

Third catcher Dan Rizzie tossed a scoreless eighth inning.

Brooklyn(2-3) 16, Asheville (3-2) 12  Box Score 

The bats broke out in Brooklyn tonight as the team scored 16 runs on 15 hits, hitting four home runs and all while only going 4-21 with runners in scoring position, showing this game could have been even more explosive. Genord, Ritter, Mauricio and Cody Bohanek each went deep and Genord lead the team with three RBIs.

Starter Kisena went five strong innings while striking out eight batters. It was enough work to get him the win despite the bullpen allowing nine runs in the eighth inning. Otanez has struggled early on in his adjustment to the bullpen this season and it continued on Saturday.

Bryce Montes de Oca did pitch his second clean inning on the early year.

St. Lucie (4-1) 8, Jupiter (1-4) 4

The team down in St. Lucie continues to impress with the bats. Saturday nights big hit came from Dyer, who smacked a three-run home run in the first that put them ahead and they never looked back. The two most talked about prospects on the team, Armstrong and Alvarez both showed why again as each had a strong performance at the plate.

Hall got the start and pitched well through four innings before being replaced by Parra who was then able to get the win. It was a nice rebound performance from Parra who did not fair so well in his last appearance.
