Justin Williams went deep in a 17-1 laugher for the Biscuits, Garrett Whitley homered for the Hot Rods, and Ryan Yarbrough struck out eight in a Bulls’ loss.

Triple-A Durham Bulls (72-46)

Up against the Scranton-Wilkes Barre Rail Riders, the Bulls couldn't keep up with the two-run frames, falling 6-2. The initial 2-0 lead was provided by a Miguel Andujar RBI single followed by a Billy McKinney RBI double. The lead was extended to 4-0 after Tyler Austin blasted a two-run home run in the fifth. Durbam replied with two runs in the bottom half of the fifth, including a Willy Adames RBI double, but the Bulls offense didn't do much outside of that inning. A two-run home run by Billy McKinney in the seventh inning sealed the win for Scranton-Wilkes Barre. Despite the loss, Durham sots at a robust 72-46 for the season.

Double-A Montgomery Biscuits (65-52)

The Biscuits had a double header of sorts today, playing two shortened makeup games for yesterday’s postponement. Game one was a one sided slugfest. Jackson started off with a lead, with Kevin Cron going yard in the top of the first. From that point, it was all Biscuits. Montgomery pounded out eight hits and drew fives walks in just the first inning, throwing up an eleven spot to start the game. The win was punctuating by Justin Williams going bridge in the fifth inning, and Montgomery hit their way to a 17-1 win. While the bats were sizzling in this one, new Rays' prospect Anthony Misiewicz provided five solid innings of one-run ball.

Montgomery came out on top in game two as well, defeating the Jackson Generals 6-2. Another seven inning contest, the offense in this game was a little more tamed. Still, Andrew Velasquez started the scoring off with a first inning home run, and Montgomery added two more runs in the second inning. Genesis Cabrera showed fantastic stuff in this start, logging six innings and yielding two runs (one earned) with nine punch outs. The Biscuits would pish across three more runs before the finale and took the game 6-2. With the double header sweep, the Biscuits hold a 28-19 second half record.

In the seveth inning, three more runs were added, this time including a two-out RBI single from former Nebraska standout Ryan Boldt. The pitching staff, lead by former Padres' farmhand Burch Smoth, outmatched the Bradenton lineup and only let up one run and six hits in the game. The Stone Crabs now sit at 25-21 in the second half.

With a 7-3 lead heading into the bottom of the seventh inning Chris Pike struggled to get batters out, and left the game with runners on first and second, one out, and a 7-6 lead.
