May 13 PNC Field W, 5-2 May 14 PNC Field W, 6-4 Trey Amburgey (30 games), Park (18 games), and Greg Allen (17 games) all extended their respective on-base streaks in the game. The long ball for May 15 PNC Field L, 5-4 Park was his seventh of the season combined with his time in Somerset, tying his career high set in 2017. May 16 PNC Field W, 3-1 news & notes June 1 PNC Field L, 5-2 June 2 PNC Field W, 5-3 June 3 PNC Field W, 5-1 AWAY WE GO: The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders hit the road for their longest road trip of the season, a 12-game, 13-day extravaganza June 4 PNC Field L, 5-4 first bringing SWB to Allentown, PA for a six-game set with the Lehigh Valley IronPigs. The second leg of the trip takes the RailRiders to the June 5 PNC Field L, 9-6 farthest outpost in the Triple-A East Northeast Division: Worcester, MA. It will be SWB’s first trip to Worcester in franchise history, with six June 6 PNC Field W, 4-3 games scheduled with the Worcester Red Sox at the brand-new Polar Park. The RailRiders also have one other 12-game, 13-day road trip, June 22 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. from August 17-29 against Worcester and Lehigh Valley. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre hosts three 12-game homestands throughout the season. June 23 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. June 24 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. FOR MY NEXT (DIE)TRICH: When play began on June 6, SWB infielder Derek Dietrich was hitting only .119/.316/.237, and had endured an June 25 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. 0-for-27 skid to end the month of May. However, beginning with a 1-for-2 performance against Lehigh Valley that night, Dietrich has found June 26 Coca-Cola Park 6:35 p.m. success at the plate in his last 11 games, batting .321/.472/.571 (9-for-28) with 7 R, 1 2B, 2 HR, and 8 RBIs. The run of success at the bat has June 27 Coca-Cola Park 1:35 p.m. improved his season batting line to .184/.366/.345, a 158-point leap in OPS. Dietrich ranks 24th among qualified Triple-A East hitters in OBP. August 10 PNC Field 7:05 p.m. August 11 PNC Field 7:05 p.m. ALL ABOARD THE TREY TRAIN: RailRiders outfielder Trey Amburgey had his 18-game hitting streak snapped last Tuesday night, when he August 12 PNC Field 7:05 p.m. went 0-for-2 with a walk and two RBIs against Syracuse. The 18-game streak is the longest for any one player in Triple-A East this season, and August 13 PNC Field 7:05 p.m. was actually a 20-game streak dating back to the final two games of the 2019 season. Despite the hit streak ending, Amburgey has continued August 14 PNC Field 6:05 p.m. to extend his on-base streak, now at an impressive 30 consecutive games dating back to August 26, 2019. He is hitting .374/.439/.664 (40- August 15 PNC Field 1:05 p.m. for-107) in that span. The SWB franchise record for longest on-base streak belongs to Brandon Drury, who reached base in 32 straight August 24 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. games in the 2018 season. August 25 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. August 26 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. OTHER STREAKS OF NOTE: In addition to Trey Amburgey’s impressive run, the RailRiders offense features two other players with double-digit August 27 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. on-base streaks. Outfielder Greg Allen is riding a season-long 16-game on-base streak into play on Sunday afternoon, and infielder Hoy Park August 28 Coca-Cola Park 6:35 p.m. has reached base safely in 17 consecutive games. Allen has also played in two other games this season in which he did not record an official August 29 Coca-Cola Park 1:35 p.m. plate appearance, therefore not jeopardizing his streak and spent time on the injured list in the middle of his streak. Park sports an absurd September 14 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. .542 OBP during his streak, which has propelled him to the Triple-A East lead in OBP (.509), SLG (.663) and OPS (1.172), and is second in the league in AVG (.360). The infielder also ranks t-4th in Triple-A East in walks (25) with Anthony Alford of Indianapolis. September 15 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. September 16 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. OH WHAT A RELIEF IT IS!: Since Kyle Barraclough relieved Albert Abreu in the sixth inning of the RailRiders game at Buffalo on Friday, September 17 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. June 11, the SWB bullpen has performed at an amazing clip. In the last 11 days, the bullpen has combined for a 1.57 ERA (7 ER/40.0 IP), while September 18 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. allowing just 23 hits, 13 walks and 47 strikeouts. The current stretch has lowered SWB’s bullpen ERA to 3.03 on the season, the seventh-best September 19 Coca-Cola Park 7:05 p.m. in all of minor league baseball, and second-best in Triple-A East (Buffalo, 2.56). RailRiders closerLuis García leads all minor leaguers with 11 saves on the season. 2019 results: Lehigh Valley, 11-7 all-time series: RailRiders Lead 114-102 COMEBACK KIDS: The RailRiders erased multi-run deficits five times en route to victory in their last 11 games. Just during the series against the Syracuse Mets, SWB won games which it trailed 5-0, 5-2 and 3-0, including winning two games in walk-off fashion. Of the RailRiders 28 wins this season, they have 16 come-from-behind victories. Five of those comebacks have come in the 7th-inning or later, and SWB has five railriders at a glance wins in its last at-bats including two walk-offs. 2021 regular season: 28-11 THREE DOZEN SIDES OF BACON: The COVID-19 pandemic has created one of the most unusual season schedules in the history of the GB: +1.5 1st, AAA East Northeast Scranton/Wilkes-Barre franchise. With the season beginning a full month later than traditional, all teams in Triple-A East will play 120-game Home: 15-6 Away: 13-5 schedules. The RailRiders, along with the rest of the Northeast Division teams, will exclusively play teams within the division. This leads to a schedule where SWB plays the rival Lehigh Valley IronPigs an unprecedented 36 times.

  • Clips for 7-12-10
    MEDIA CLIPS – Oct. 29, 2018 Rockies decline Parra's option for 2019 Do-Hyoung Park | MLB.com | Oct. 30th, 2018 The Rockies have declined a $12 million club option on outfielder Gerardo Parra for the 2019 season, exercising a $1.5 million buyout on Tuesday to make him a free agent. Parra appeared in 142 games in 2018 but started only 97 of them as a platoon outfielder, primarily in left field. He hit .284/.342/.372 in the final year of a three-year, $27.5 million contract inked prior to the 2016 season. The two-time National League Gold Glove Award winner lost playing time toward the end of the regular season when David Dahl returned from injury and Matt Holliday made his return to Colorado in August. The left-handed-hitting Parra, 31, struggled to live up to expectations in his first year with Colorado in 2016, hitting .253 with a .671 OPS, but he rebounded in '17 with career highs in average (.309) and RBIs (71). He spent the first five-plus seasons of his 10-year career with the D-backs before brief stints with Milwaukee and Baltimore prior to his arrival in Denver. Still, the Rockies will entertain the idea of agreeing to a less expensive deal with Parra, who showed value as a pinch- hitter this season by batting .393/.433/.536 with one homer, one double and two walks in 30 plate appearances. Franchise mainstay Carlos Gonzalez and Holliday are also free agents again for the Rockies. Colorado has two starting outfield positions locked up for 2019 between Dahl and three-time All-Star Charlie Blackmon, who in April was extended through the '21 season with player options for '22 and '23.
