LAST TIME OUT

MOOSIC, PA (June 9, 2026) - The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders defeated the Lehigh Valley IronPigs 5-2 Tuesday night at PNC Field. Yankees #2 Prospect Elmer Rodríguez pitched a quality start, and MLB Rehabber Jasson Domínguez reached base four times, including a homer in the third to secure the victory.

Rodríguez was efficient through the first three frames, striking out consecutive batters to close the first, working around a two-out walk in the second, and a lead-off single in the third, to keep Lehigh Valley off the board. Domínguez's third-inning home run opened the offense for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Abrahan Gutierrez reached on an error to lead off before Domínguez towered a two-run homer just inside the left-field foul pole to give the RailRiders a 2-0 edge. The RailRiders extended the advantage in the home-half of the fourth on back-to-back doubles from Jonathan Ornelas and Kenedy Corona. Later in the inning, Corona stole third and scored on a George Lombard Jr. sacrifice fly for a four-run cushion. In the fifth, Ornelas' third double of the contest scored Tyler Hardman from first to put SWB up five.

Lehigh Valley broke the shutout bid in the top of the seventh when Carter Kieboom doubled home Keaton Anthony and Gabriel Rincones Jr. to cut the deficit to three, but the IronPigs could not rally a comeback.

Ornelas raised his team-leading batting average to .331, going 4-for-4 with four doubles, a run scored, and an RBI in the game. Four two-baggers in one game is a franchise record for SWB. Dominguez was 3-for-3 with a walk, a run scored, and two RBI's in his rehab appearance as the RailRiders put a base runner on in every inning. Rodriguez (W, 2-3) tossed 6.1 frames, allowing one run on three hits and striking out four to earn the win. Yankees #4 Prospect Carlos Lagrange allowed one run on three hits and struck out four in 2.2 innings of relief work. IronPigs starter Tucker Davidson (L, 3-3) pitched 4.0 innings, surrendering four runs on six hits, striking out five in defeat.

NEWS AND NOTES

DOUBLE TROUBLE - Jonathan Ornelas smacked four doubles in the game last night - a RailRiders first! The franchise record was three in one contest, but that has been done many times before most recently by Oswaldo Cabrera earlier this summer. He also had his second four-hit game of the season which the last time interestingly enough, was also against Lehigh Valley Ornelas has held the batting average title for the RailRiders for the majority of the season. With last night, he raised his batting average to .331 in 50 games this season. The right-hander has established himself as the RailRiders most consistent hitter, adding in ten doubles, three triples, and five homers.

ELMER'S ELECTRIC - Yankees #2 prospect Elmer Rodríguez pitched his best start of the season last night, going 6.1 innings with just one run. It was his deepest appearance of the summer and his first quality start. Rodríguez actually took a shutout bid into the seventh inning, but left with a runner on that eventually scored. He holds a 2.74 earned run average in nine Triple-A starts this season. In 29.2 innings of work, the righty has allowed21 walks to 49 strikeouts.

He was recalled by New York on April 15 and made two appearances for the Yankees, before being placed on the Injured List on the 25th with right shoulder discomfort.

He boasted five doubles and three homers while driving in 15 runs. Domínguez was recalled by New York on April 27 as Giancarlo Stanton was placed on the Injured List.

New York placed him on the 10-Day Injured List the following day with a left shoulder AC joint sprain.
