Jamie Johnson belted a solo home run, his third of the season.  Jimmy Gulliver singled and scored a run.

Oneonta and Tri-City completed the game that was suspended way back on July 11 and Oneonta came out on the short end of things.  Wade Kapetyn took the loss and he fell to 0-1. He gave up one run in 2 1/3 innings of relief.  Cory Hamilton gave up three runs in 2 2/3 innings of relief.

Alexis Espinoza went two for four with a double, a run and an RBI.  Jimmy Gulliver went one for three with a walk and two RBIs.

When the dust settled on this one, the Tigers ended up with a 10-8 loss to Mahoning Valley in a game where the two teams combined for 25 hits.  Wade Kapteyn gave up two unearned runs and he took the loss to fall to 0-1 while Cory Hamilton was the standout on the mound.  He gave up two hits and two walks with four strikeouts in 2 1/3 innings of shutout relief.

Jimmy Gulliver went two for four with a walk, three RBIs and a run.  Carmelo Jaime went three for five with a double and a run.

A run on five hits isn’t going to cut it and that’s all the Oneonta Tigers could muster in a 2-1 loss to Lowell.  Jamie Johnson had the only extra base hit with a double while Jimmy Gulliver drew a walk and scored the lone run.

Clemente Mendoza took the loss and he fell to 0-1.  He gave up two runs on four hits with two strikeouts in three innings of relief.  Nate Newman struck out five in three shutout innings in his start.

The Tigers scored more in the runs in the twelth inning then either team did the rest of the game as they broke out in a 4-1, twelve inning win.  Oneonta got three hits that inning but the big play was a fielding error by Lowell’s first baseman that led to two unearned runs.  Christopher Sedon went two for five with a run while Jimmy Gulliver went two for six with an RBI.

Nicholas Cassavechia threw three shutout innings of relief and he improved to 1-0.  Also noteworthy was Kevan Hess’ two shutout innings in which he gave up just one hit with a pair of strikeouts.
