One day after being held to just two hits, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre’s offense broke with a 13-hit attack, and three pitchers combined on a two-hitter as the RailRiders defeated Rochester, 4-2, in seven innings in the first game of a doubleheader Friday in Rochester.

Ali Sanchez led the way with three hits while Seth Brown and Jonathan Ornelas added two each to pace the offense, which also got home runs from Paul DeJong and Yanquiel Fernandez in snapping a three-game losing streak.

Carlos Lagrange, Zach Messenger and Yovanny Cruz did the work on the mound for the RailRiders. The right-handed Langrage was the starter and went 3.1 innings, allowing one hit, walking five and striking out two. He was followed by Messinger (1-0), who picked up the win with his 2.2 innings of one-hit relief, with two walks and three strikeouts. Cruz notched his first save of the season with one clean inning of relief.

DeJong got things started in the top of the first inning with his solo home run, his first of the season, for a 1-0 lead.

Dukle Ellis’ RBI single in the second scored Brown, making it 2-0. An Oswaldo Cabrera ground out plated Sanchez, and the RailRiders led, 3-0.

Dylan Cruz, who had both of Rochester’s hits, cut it to 3-1 in the third with his first home run of the season.

Fernandez followed with his blast in the fifth as the RailRiders’ lead grew to 4-1.

Then, in the bottom of the fifth, Crews scored on an errant pickoff attempt by the catcher Sanchez, cutting Rochester’s deficit to 4-2.

Rochester starter Mitchell Parker (1-1) surrendered 10 hits and all four runs in 4.2 innings to get tagged with the loss. He struck out six and didn’t walk a batter.

On Thursday, four Rochester pitchers combined on a two-hitter as the Red Wings beat the RailRiders, 3-1.
