Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders News Release

Moosic, Pa. - The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (Triple-A/New York Yankees) completed a three-game sweep of the Toledo Mud Hens thanks to a 2-1 win on Sunday afternoon at PNC Field.

The triumph also pushed the RailRiders' winning streak to five games.

Kyle Davies (7-6) hurled a season-high eight innings, limiting the Mud Hens to a solo home run by Manny Pina in the second inning. He yielded two hits, three walks and struck out three. Davies finished his outing by retiring 19-of-20 hitters, including 10 straight.

Trailing 1-0 in the third, Ben Gamel crushed a one-out triple to left-center. The three-baser was his third in as many days and his International League-leading 12th of the year. Jose Pirela plated his center fielder on a groundout to first.

Aaron Judge returned to the RailRiders' lineup and finished the day two-for-three. He opened the sixth with a single and advanced to second on a throwing error by Hessman at third. Cito Culver slammed his first Triple-A hit into center with two away and brought around Judge for the winning score.
