Walk-offs! Great pitching! Dominican Summer League Opening Day!

Round Rock 2, Iowa 1 (10 innings)

W- Reymin Guduan (1-1)
L- Matt Carasiti (1-1)

RR home runs: A.J. Reed (6, solo in 8th)

The Express tied this game in the 8th and walked off with the win in the first extra frame.

José Urquidy went 5.1 innings and allowed a run on two hits, walked four, and struck out five. Humberto Castellanos jumped right into the fray after getting summoned from Quad Cities. He allowed a hit and struck out two in 3.2 innings as the first man out of the E-Train bullpen. Reymin Guduan struck out two in a 1-2-3 10th and eventually earned the victory.

Well, it took Round Rock eight innings before they could push a run across, but hey, better late than never. A.J. Reed led off the bottom of the 8th with a homer to tie the game at 1. Reed started the 10th in scoring position and he wound up scoring the winning run on Lorenzo Quintana's base hit.

Both teams will transform into their Copa de la Diversión identities to wrap up the series. The Round Rock Chupacabras will face the Demonios de Des Moines at 1:05. Cy Sneed will face Colin Rea.

Corpus Christi and Frisco was postponed

Fayetteville 2, Wilmington 1

W- César Rosado (2-0)
L- Robert Garcia (1-1)

Fayetteville home runs: Scott Schreiber (2, 5 season; walk-off solo in 9th)

The Woodpeckers scored the first run of the game in the 1st and walked off with the victory by scoring the last run of the game in the 9th. After finding themselves on the losing end of an inordinate amount of walk-offs, they finally notched a walk-off victory, their first in franchise history. As a result, Fayetteville earned the split in this series.

Colton Shaver ripped an RBI double in the 1st to open the scoring and Scott Schreiber won the game with a home run to start the bottom of the 9th. Shaver finished 3-4 on the night, while former Nebraska teammates Schreiber and Jacob Meyers had two hits apiece.

Brett Conine's outstanding year continued as he allowed six hits, walked one, and struck out a career-high 12 over six shutout innings. This was the first double-digit strikeout game of Conine's professional career. Leovanny Rodriguez allowed a run on two hits and struck out one in two innings and César Rosado got two groundouts and a fly ball out in a 1-2-3 9th inning.

Fayetteville starts a three-game series with Winston-Salem tonight at 6:00 Eastern.

W- Luis Garcia (4-0)
L- Luis Alvarado (2-4)
S- Brett Daniels (1)

QC home runs: None.

There was only one run in this game and it belonged to Quad Cities.

Austin Dennis scored that run when Freúdis Nova grounded into a force out in the 6th; an error on the play allowed him to come home. His double in the 8th was the game's only extra-base hit. Jeremy Peña's single to lead off the 4th extended his hitting streak to 14 games.

Luis Garcia and Brett Daniels joined forces to throw a two-hit shutout; they allowed one hit apiece and combined to strike out 16. Garcia started things off by walking three and tying a career high with ten strikeouts in six innings. Daniels walked two and struck out six over the final three innings to complete the shutout.

Austin Hansen will start the series finale and he'll face José Soriano at 2:00.

DSL Astros 6, DSL Royals1 4

W- Ronny Garcia (1-0)

The Academy opened up their season with a victory.

Carlos Hurtado drove in the DSL team's first run of the season with an RBI triple in the 1st and he eventually scored on a single from Frank Perez. Omar Díaz stole home as part of a double steal in the 5th inning. They got two more runs in the 6th as Jesús Liranzo scored on a wild pitch and Cristian Gonzalez hit a groundout that allowed Carlos Quintero to score. Gonzalez scored on a single from Andrés Monzón in the 8th inning. Monzón and Quintero, a pitcher who was serving as the DH in this game, both finished 2-4 on the day.

Jherson Pereira got the start and he went four innings, allowing an unearned run on three hits and striking out six. Reimy Beltre was the first man out of the bullpen and he allowed two runs (one inherited runner charged to him), a hit, walked three, and struck out two. Ronny Garcia was next; he allowed a hit and walked one in 1.2 innings. José Betances and Cristofer Mezquita followed with an inning apiece. Betances allowed a run on a groundout, a hit, walked one, and struck out one in the 8th, while Mezquita walked one and struck out two in the 9th.
