Hartford, Conn - Orelvis Martinez broke the New Hampshire single-season home run record with his 28th homer, as the New Hampshire Fisher Cats beat the Hartford Yard Goats 6-1 on Sunday afternoon. Noah Gotsis took a no-hitter into the sixth for the Yard Goats in front of the 34th sellout crowd this season. Rockies prospects Zac Veen and Brenton Doyle each had two hits for the Yard Goats. Hartford split the six-game series with New Hampshire and will battle for first place on the road in Portland next week.
Yard Goats' starter, Noah Gotsis, held the Fisher Cats without a hit through the first five and 1/3 innings. The right-hander retired eight consecutive batters before allowing a single to Davis Schneider in the top of the sixth.
