The final game between the Red Wings (Nationals AAA) and WooSox was postponed to the week of June 9–14 after a storm disrupted the prior Red Sox game. Rochester and Worcester are scheduled to play again later this season, making the postponement straightforward. In Maine, a Portland game proceeded, featuring Franklin Arias delivering a triple in extra innings after a pitchers’ duel. Arias’s decision to run to third increased the team’s win probability, and Johanfran Garcia later drove in the winning run on a walk-off. Salem’s pitching limited opponents to four hits, while the offense produced steady scoring, including Stanley Tucker’s third home run, multiple stolen bases, and additional multi-hit performances.
"This game was helped by strong pitching, where Salem arms allowed just four hits. Truth be told, the offense was so automatic Sunday afternoon in Lynchburg that they would have been fine. Stanley Tucker had his third home run of the season in the third inning, a frame in which Salem scored seven runs, Angus King stole two bases despite striking out three times and Avinson Pinto had another multi-hit game."
