WINSTON-SALEM, NC – On a night with the wind blowing out of BB&T Ballpark, the Winston-Salem overcame a four-run Potomac lead to beat the Nationals 7-6. The Dash swept the four-game series in North Carolina on a walk-off hit by Trayce Thompson.
In the ninth with the score tied 6-6, Winston-Salem got a one-out hit from Jake Oester off Neil Holland. Ryan Demmin came into the contest to replace Holland and Wagner knocked a double down the left field line to put runners at second and third with one out. Kyle Eveland pinch ran for Oester and after a walk to Marcus Semien, Eveland scored on a single to left-center field by Trayce Thompson and for the second time this year Potomac lost on a walk-off hit.
Randolph Oduber started the contest with a bang: a homer over the 18-foot high wall in center directly over the 399 marker off of Winston-Salem starter Matt Heidenreich. The Nationals barrage continued with a Blake Kelso triple off the short three-foot high wall in right field. Kelso scored on a Zach Walters ground out to first. Potomac added another run in the first with back-to-back doubles from Michael Taylor (to right center) and Justin Bloxom (to left center) and led 3-0.
The Dash scored themselves in the first off LHP Bobby Hansen Jr. Three singles from Marcus Semien, Trayce Thompson and Dan Black equaled a run for Winston-Salem and it was Nationals 3-1 after an inning.
