LANCASTER, Pa. – The Lancaster Stormers’ David Smith doubled home two runs with two outs in the ninth to erase High Point’s 8-7 lead and deliver a 9-8 win for Lancaster in the series finale on Sunday night at Penn Medicine Park.

The Rockers had taken an early 6-2 lead and led 7-3 going into the seventh when the Stormers tied the game with four runs. Luke Napleton blasted a solo homer in the top of the eighth to put High Point on top 8-7.

In the ninth, Ryan Chasse came on but allowed a lead-off single to Aaron Schunk. After a fly ball out, Nick Lucky beat out an infield single to put two men aboard. A grounder to second advanced the runners with two outs. Smith then doubled into the left field corner, scoring both Schunk and Lucky, to complete Lancaster’s series sweep.

The Rockers are now 15-18 in the second half and 44-52 on the year. Lancaster improved to 16-16 and 51-44.

Lancaster took a 1-0 lead in the first inning. Lead-off hitter Melvin Mercedes reached on an infield single but suffered an apparent leg injury on the play and was replaced by Jalen Battles. Aaron Schunk then singled Battles to second and he scored on a single by Tristin English.

The Rockers forged a 2-1 lead in the top of the second as Nick Longhi drew a walk from Lancaster starter Kyle Lazer.

Lancaster tied the game at 2-2 in the bottom of the second on a single by Adam Hackenberg and a sac bunt. Battle’s grounder to third was thrown away at first with Hackenberg scoring on the E-5.

The Rockers surged to a 6-2 lead in the third. The four-run rally started with back-to-back solo homers from Hogan Windish and Longhi. After a walk to Davidson, Hubbard doubled to put two runners in scoring position. A walk to Ethan Skender loaded the bases and Napleton stroked a two-run single to center to score two.

Lancaster pulled to within 6-3 in the fourth inning when Scott Kelly walked and eventually scored on a groundout by Battles.

Ivan Melendez hit his 13^th homer of the year with two outs in the sixth to extend High Point’s lead to 7-3.

Lancaster scored four times in the seventh inning to tie the contest at 7-7. Brayden Matthews allowed a pair of hits and a walk in allowing the first run. Nick Timpanelli came on in relief and allowed a pair of hits and walk as well.

Maciel Extends Hit Streak To 19, Bats Quiet Otherwise In Series Finale

Alex Barker dominates for Boulders in Game 3, Miners still take series

Pomona, NY: In a series filled with runs a plenty and offensive production, the Miners fail to complete the sweep in New York thanks to an amazing pitching performance by Alex Barker. They fell 5-1 to the Boulders, putting a small blemish in an otherwise successful series.

Tristan Harley got the start in this one and was put through the wringer early on. Two early home-runs by shortstop Austin Dennis on the first pitch of the half inning and right fielders Norris McClure put the Miners in an early 2-0 predicament.

Lee Amedee’s line drive RBI single to right field in the third inning and Josh Leslie’s grounder bringing Santino Rossi home on a fielder’s choice added to the lead, but with how hot the Miners were offensively through the first two games of this series, it felt like Harley did enough to keep the Miners within distance.

Unfortunately, Alex Barker had other plans. The first year Boulders pitcher went scorched earth on the mound, with almost seven innings pitched with a no hitter until Dean Ferrara broke it up with a triple in the seventh. It was a contrast to games one and two where the Miners were able to compete with the Boulders elite bats.

Despite this, they gave themselves a fighting chance in the ninth. Hunter D’Amato’s single to center field that brought Edwin Mateo home made it 5-1. Later in the inning, a walk to Mahki Backstrom loaded the bases. But it was just not meant to be. Keenan O’Brien and Kiko Romero could not capitalize, and the Miners’s comeback falls short.

A tough loss to swallow, but the Miners came into Pomona needing to win the series and they’ve done just that. They close the gap on the Boulders and keep their playoff hopes alive. The Miners return to action on Monday when they face the Tri-City Valley Cats to kick off a three game set. First pitch is scheduled at 6:30 PM.

Beavers Walk Off Diamond Hoppers in Sudden Victory Thriller, 9-8

admin — Sun, 09 Aug 2026 21:51:49 +0000

UTICA, Mich. – The Birmingham Bloomfield Beavers (18-16) survived a wild late-inning comeback from the Eastside Diamond Hoppers (10-25) and answered in extra innings to earn a dramatic 9-8 walk-off victory in sudden victory Sunday afternoon at UWM Field.

Birmingham wasted little time getting on the board, plating three runs in the bottom of the first inning to take an early 3-0 advantage. Eastside began chipping away in the third when Jarrett Chapman launched a solo home run, his second of the season, cutting the deficit to 3-1. The Diamond Hoppers added two more in the fifth to even the game at three.

The game remained tied until the Beaver’s offense erupted in the bottom of the eighth. The Beavers pushed five runs across, highlighted by Alec Gonzalez‘s first home run of the season—a grand slam that gave Birmingham an 8-3 advantage heading into the ninth. Gonzalez finished the afternoon with four RBI, while David Coppedge collected three hits for the Beavers.

But the Diamond Hoppers weren’t finished. Facing a five-run deficit in the ninth, Eastside mounted a furious rally and scored five runs to tie the game at 8-8, forcing sudden victory. Chapman led Eastside’s offense with two hits, two RBI and the home run, while Eli Watson added two hits and drove in a pair.

After Eastside was held scoreless in the sudden victory, Birmingham finished the job pushing across the winning run for the 9-8 walk-off victory. Beavers reliever Ben Crumpton earned the win, while Eastside’s Philip Miller was charged with the loss.

The sudden victory format is as follows: a coin toss will take place at home plate between the managers of both teams. The home team will call their selection as the umpire tosses the coin. The winner of the coin toss will select whether they will take the field defensively or bat in the inning. The team at bat will remain the same batting order as the previous inning with the hitter making the last out placed at first base. If the team scores a run, they win. If they are held scoreless, the victory goes to the team on defense.
