Can-Am League Recap

August 24, 2008 - Canadian American League (Can-Am) News Release


Quebec 3, Nashua 0

@ Nashua, NH. Time: 2:16 Attendance: 1,677

W: Orlando Trias (7-2) L: Jason Paul (4-5) S: None

HR: None

Quebec starting pitcher Orlando Trias was unhittable in this one as he fanned four and walked four en route to a no-hitter, the second in Can-Am League history. The masterful performance by Trias ran his record to 7-2 with Quebec and improved the Capitales to 24-16 in the second half. Capitales 1B Eddie Lantigua and 2B Jean-Michel Rochon-Salvas led the way offensively. The duo combined to go 6-for-8 with three runs scored and two RBI. Nashua starting pitcher Jason Paul also pitched well in the shadow of Trias' gem. Paul allowed two runs on seven hits and struck out seven in 7 2/3 innings, but was stuck with the tough-luck loss.

Trailing 5-1 entering the seventh inning, the Brockton Rox rallied for four runs in the frame to tie the score, 5-5. An inning later Brockton took the lead for good, plating a run to go up 6-5 then scoring an insurance run in the ninth to win 7-5. Rox 2B Melvin Falu led the way at the plate, going 3-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI. Brockton RF Dennis Abreu was productive as well. He went 1-for-4 with a run scored and three RBI. Jackals 3B Chris Kelly was 2-for-4 with a homer and three RBI to lead New Jersey in the losing effort.

@ Augusta, NJ. Time: 2:49 Attendance: 1,602

W: Craig Snipp (7-5) L: Charlie Ruud (0-1) S: None

HR: AC-Anthony Granato (9)

Sussex starting pitcher Craig Snipp allowed one run on nine hits and struck out five while walking none in seven strong innings to pick up the win and improve to 7-5 on the year. Snipp got plenty of offensive support, as the Skyhawks rapped out 15 hits in the contest. Sussex RF Ron Perodin led the way, going 3-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI. Skyhawks LF Alex Frazier also had a good game, going 2-for-4 with a run scored and an RBI. Atlantic City SS Anthony Granato was 2-for-5 with a solo home run in defeat.

Worcester 6, Ottawa 4

@ Worcester, MA. Time: 2:39 Attendance: 2,558

W: Ryan Lobban (4-1) L: Adam Hawes (4-12) S: John Birtwell (13)

HR: WT-Francisco Caraballo (20)

The Worcester Tornadoes scored four runs in the fourth inning to take a 4-0 lead, but saw that lead vanish when the Rapidz scored four runs of their own in the sixth inning. The Worcester bats were too much in the end, though, as the Tornadoes scored two more times in the seventh inning to take a 6-4 lead, the same margin they would eventually win by. Worcester LF Francisco Caraballo led the way at the plate, going 2-for-3 with a home run, his 20th of the year, two runs scored and a pair of RBI. Tornadoes reliever Ryan Lobban notched his fourth win of the season and closer John Birtwell struck out the side in the ninth inning for his 13th save.
