Albert Suarez was certainly showing off the skills that made the Giants bring him up to the majors for much of the season. With a pitching staff made up entirely of former Giants, the River Cats defeated the Storm Chasers in a close game.
Suarez struck out 11 in six innings of work, a season-high in either the minors or majors, raising his Sacramento total to 29 in 36 innings, only giving up a run on a single and double in the fourth, which gave Omaha the briefest of leads. The River Cats responded with a Chris Denorfia home run in the bottom of the fourth to tie the game. The River Cats took the lead in the fifth, as Ali Castillo doubles and Austin Slater singled him home. Jarrett Parker iced off the scoring with his 15th home run for Sacramento.

Ryder Jones had a breakout game for the Squirrels.
Ryder Jones had a 3-for-3 day, his first perfect day of the season, and hit his 12th home run of the season for the Squirrels in a 4-0 win over the Baysox. His two-run home run in the first inning gave Richmond all the runs they would need, although the team got runs on C.J. Hinojosa and Chris Shaw’s back-to-back doubles in the eighth to ice the game.
The offense supported a great game by Matt Gage, going eight scoreless innings for the second time this season. Gage dropped his ERA back under 3.86 after he gave up six runs in two inning of work in his last game. Gage has struck out 88 in 114.1 inning this season.

San Jose had a typical Lancaster style of game, filled with offense. Every Giants collected at least one hit, and the Giants collected three home runs as they defeated the JetHawks. But the real star ended up being Conor Menez, who went five scoreless innings before Lancaster finally got through to him. By then, the Giants had a 7-0 lead, powered by Dylan Davis’ 11th home run for San Jose, and Miguel Gomez’s fourth San Jose home run.
For Menez, it was his best game in three San Jose appearances. The 14th round pick now has a 4.10 ERA overall between three levels. Meanwhile, D.J. Snelten had a clutch relief appearance, keeping everyone off the board. He now has 12 appearances without an earned run allowed.

Jake McCasland was back to his best form today for Augusta. Well, almost his best.
McCasland did allow two hits while striking out nine, but despite not having a no-hitter he was still beyond dominating. McCasland is in a strikeout mode lately, having struck out 10 in 7 innings in his last game, and now has 88 in 90.1 innings this season. The bullpen combined for three scoreless innings, including Owens’ fifth scoreless appearance for his career.
The GreenJackets took an early lead, as Junior Arias hit a solo home run in the second inning. A Skyler Ewing RBI double in the fourth put Augusta up 2-0. But the GreenJackets exploded in the sixth inning for five runs, topped off by Dillon Dobson’s three run home run, to ice the game.

It was a rough game for the Volcanoes and Melvin Adon.
Adon was hit hard again, giving up nine hits over 5.2 innings, but he wasn’t helped by his defense. Second baseman Kelvin Rivera’s back-to-back errors in the first inning led to two unearned runs to start Everett’s scoring. The rest of the way, it was all Adon getting hit hard. Adon has a .324 batting average against on the season, which is a big part of his 6.41 ERA this year.
For the Volcanoes, the main bit of the offense came once again off of Gio Brusa’s bat, and his second inning solo home run. His seven home runs leads the Volcanoes on the year. Meanwhile, Gustavo Cabrera hit his 9th double in 31 games with Salem-Keizer, and Kevin River had his 11th double as part as a ninth inning rally to score the other Volcanoes run

And Cody Brickhouse only had two singles, but he only has one extra-base hit in 44 at-bats this season, anyway.
Meanwhile, Caleb Baragar had another strong start. He only went 4.1 innings, but had his fourth start in a row allowing no more than one run. However, he did have his third straight game allowing three runs, and now has 14 in 40.1 innings.

The Dominican team squeaked out of this game.
Leading 3-2 going into the ninth, The bullpen was unable to hold the game. Jasier Herrera got a hold, but started the inning, giving up two hits to the three batters he faced, leaving runners at first and second. Alejandro De La Rosa came in, and gave up a single to load the bases, and a sacrifice fly to give up the lead. However, in the 10th, Francisco Medina singled, and took second on a wild pitch. Medina went to third on a ground ball, and then scored on an Ismael Munguia single to give the team the lead they’d need.
Norwith Gudino made his first start since July 27th, going four innings and giving up his first runs in four outings. It was enough to raise his ERA to 2.53. Francisco Medina had his second three-hit game in the last five, as part of a six-game hitting streak.
