Durham, NC - Jeter Downs and Everson Pereira each hit two-run home runs to lift Scranton/Wilkes-Barre past Durham 6-1 on Wednesday night at the DBAP.

The Bulls (9-14) managed just three hits in the loss, while Durham's pitching staff struck out 17 RailRider batters.
The RailRiders (14-8) swiped five bases in the contest, including four in the seventh inning alone.
