scranton/wilkes-barre railriders game notes lehigh valley ironpigs (8-2) @ scranton/wilkes-barre railriders (7-4) LHP JoJo Romero (0-1, 9.00) vs. LHP Nestor Cortes (1-0, 0.71) Game No. 12 PNC Field Moosic, PA April 15, 2019 First Pitch 6:35 p.m. last time out... MOOSIC, PA (April 14, 2019) The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders defeated the Buffalo Bisons 9-5 in the fourth and final game of the series Sunday night at PNC Field. The Bisons established a 1-0 lead in the top of the first on an RBI single by Patrick Cantwell. The RailRiders retaliated with Mike Ford smashing a double to center to score Thairo Estrada two batters into the bottom of the first, tying the game. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre kept the momentum going throughout the second inning as Gosuke Katoh sent a single into center to score Mike Ford, increasing the tally 2-1. Shortly after, Roemon Fields singled on a ground ball to left-fielder Zack Zehner and Andrew Guillotte scored for the Bisons, knotting the score 2-2. The fourth inning saw two home runs; Ryan McBroom knocked his second of the season and Kellin Deglan slammed his first out of the park, holding the RailRiders in a steady lead. Gio Gonzalez kept Buffalo off the board throughout the fourth and fifth innings, capping off a performance in which he earned his second win of the season. A lot of action happened in the bottom of the fifth; Mike Ford crushed his team-leading fifth home run of the season and Thairo Estrada poked a single into right field for a base hit, driving in Kellin Deglan for an 8-2 lead. The RailRiders added two more runs in the bottom of the sixth inning, and though Buffalo rallied with three runs in the top of the seventh, the RailRiders had already produced enough offense to make it comfortable down the stretch.

It wasn t until Game No. 61 last season vs. Rochester that SWB had its fourth 9R-game of 2018. FINISHING THE DEAL: Sunday, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders had an opportunity to close out a four-game sweep of the Buffalo Bisons and they did so with a 9-5 victory. A season ago, the RailRiders won four straight games in four straight days over Buffalo from 7/2-7/5, but the four games were split between the two cities, two games a piece. The last time SWB notched a four-game sweep over Buffalo was 7/13/2017-7/16/2017 on the road, and the last four-game sweep of any opponent at PNC Field by the RailRiders was 5/15/2017-5/18/2017 vs. the Pawtucket Red Sox. SOME PHUTURE PHILLIES: MLB.com has a number of players on the Lehigh Valley IronPigs listed as top prospects in the system. According to their initial MLB Pipeline rankings, five players- all pitchers- rank as Top-30 prospects: RHP Enyel De Los Santos (No. 6), LHP JoJo Romero (No. 7), LHP Ranger Suarez (No. 10), LHP Cole Irvin (No. 16) and RHP Edgar Garcia (No. 28). In addition to De Los Santos, Romero, Suarez and Irvin, the IronPigs have Jared Eickhoff and Drew Anderson, who were both top-30 prospects at times in the past few years, round out an early-season six-man rotation. TRUCKING AT THE TOP: INF Mike Ford has gotten out to an incredibly hot start to the 2019 season, picking up a hit in all 9G in which he has played, including 6 multi-hit performances. He ranks Top-10 in the International League in: AVG (.471, 3rd), HR (5, T-2nd), RBI (14, 1st), OBP (.525, 3rd), SLG (1.029, 1st), OPS (1.554, 1st), H (16, T-2nd), XBH (9, T-1st) and Total Bases (35, 2nd). All of this, despite not having played in two of the RailRiders first 11G. GETTING IT DONE EARLY: The Scranton Wilkes-Barre RailRiders enter Monday s game having scored in the first inning in 7 of their previous 10 games, to the tune of 16 total runs. In each of those seven games in which they scored they have had an extra-base hit, and all told, RailRiders hitters are 20-for-47 with 7 2B, HR, 7 BB, HBP for a slash line of.426/.509/.638. RUNNING LIKE CRAZY: Last season s version of the RailRiders recorded 49 SB on 79 tries (62.0%) which was 11 fewer SB than any other team in the league (Lehigh Valley & Gwinnett: 60 SB), and by percentage was the second worst in the league (Louisville, 60.0%). That said, last April was a strong month for SWB on the base paths, going 14-for-15 in SB but only 35-for-64 (54.6%) over the final 115G of the season (1 SB every 3.3G from May 1st onward). The 2019 RailRiders are off to a torrid start, having gone 13-for-16 SB over the first 11G of the year, including another SB Sunday (Trey Amburgey, 2). Leading the way is OF Billy Burns who is 5-for-5 SB which puts him in the IL lead.
