RED WINGS NOTES
KKKKKKORY ABBOTT: RHP Cory Abbott went three shutout innings in tonight's game versus Syracuse, on just two hits and six strikeouts...the righty now is averaging 13.5 K/9, the highest mark amongst Wings starters this season...tonight marks the first time a team won a game that Cory Abbott started this season (0-4 w/ IOW & ROC).
I PREFER MASHED POTATOES: The Rochester Plates won the Golden Fork with a win 10-9 over the Syracuse Salt Potatoes...after defeating the Salt Potatoes on their turf on May 26th in game one of the series, 9-7, Rochester took the best of three series at home...the Plates, reclaim the esteemed utensil for the first time since 2018, losing the duel in both 2019 and 2021 due to a tie-breaker that went Syracuse's way due to the run-differential determiner.
STEVENSHOT: Left fielder Andrew Stevenson went 3-for-5 with a home run and four RBI...Stevenson has a hit in eight of his last nine games, going 15-for-35 (.429) during his run...the outfielder is batting .308 this season, tied fourth in the International League in batting average.
CLIMBING THE LADDER: Rochester's win coinciding with a Buffalo loss (7-1 v St Paul), means the Red Wings are just half a game back of the Bisons for first place in the International League-East...Rochester is now 11-4 versus Syracuse this year...with the win, the Wings improve to 10-2 in Thursday home games in 2022.
DON'T LET JOEY HEAT UP: Since going 6-for-41 over a ten-game stretch, first baseman Joey Meneses is 4-for-12 (.300) with two doubles and two RBI in the series versus the Mets...Meneses leads the International League with 79 hits.
THE BANK OF ROCHESTER: Designated hitter Nick Banks made his return to the lineup after being on the Injured List since May 11th...the designated hitter went 1-for-3 with an RBI and two walks...the Wings are now 8-2 in games where the Lefty has an RBI.
SYRACUSE NOTES
A GRAND DINI: Catcher Nick Dini hit a grand slam in the top of the fourth inning to bring Syracuse within two runs...the home run was Dini's first in June and his sixth of the season.
