The Mudcats managed to tie the game at 3, but Stephen Wrenn's 2-run homer in the 7th put Buies Creek back in front, and that blast proved to be the difference.
Forrest Whitley allowed 2 runs on a double, one other hit, walked 2, and struck out 7 in 3.2 innings. Erasmo Pinales was the first man out of the Astros bullpen and went 3.1 innings. He allowed a run on a strikeout that got away from Jake Rogers. As Rogers threw down to 1B to complete the out, the man on 3rd dashed home and scored. Pinales also allowed a single, walked 2, and struck out 5. Sean Stutzman walked 1 and struck out 3 over the final 2 innings to get the save.
Anthony Hermelyn's homer in the 2nd opened up the scoring. Yordan Alvarez ripped an RBI double in the 4th and scored on a sac fly from Rogers. Wrenn finished 3-5 on the evening and scored on Alvarez's double.

Tri-City 8, Lowell 1
W- Parker Mushinski (2-0)
L- Dakota Smith (2-2)

TC home runs: J.J. Matijevic (4, solo in 8th)
Tri-City busted this one open with a 4-run 5th inning.
Alex House struck out 4 over 2 scoreless innings. Parker Mushinski allowed 2 hits, walked 2, and struck out 1 in his 3 innings of work, and Hunter Martin allowed a run on 4 hits, walked 1, and struck out 2 over the final 4 innings.
Mike Papierski opened the scoring with an RBI double in the 2nd inning, and Abraham Toro hit an RBI single in the 3rd.
Jake Meyers reached on an error to start the 5th and scored on a Luis Payano double. Payano ended up scoring on an error that allowed Jonathan Arauz to reach, but Arauz got thrown out trying to take 2nd on the play. Toro, J.J. Matijevic, and Papierski walked to load the bases for Connor MacDonald, who ripped a 2-run double. Payano tripled to lead off the 6th and scored on Arauz's double, and Matijevic capped off the evening with a solo shot in the 8th.
Payano finished a home run shy of the cycle; had he done so, he would have completed the cycle in order. Matijevic (solo HR, 3 R) and Papierski (2B, RBI) both finished 2-3 on the night.
Dallas Keuchel is scheduled to make his second rehab start with the ValleyCats tonight. I'm just going off what Todd Kalas said on the Astros broadcast last night.
