Salem, VA - It is not often where you have the opportunity to bat twice with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the last inning on the same day.

Salem outfielder Alex Hassan flew out to right field with the potential winning runs aboard in a 5-3 loss in the series opener, but redeemed himself in the finale, taking a 3-2 pitch for ball four to force in Ronald Bermudez and give Salem a much-needed 3-2 victory in the nightcap.

The win snapped a four game losing streak for the Red Sox and prevented them from falling four and a half games behind the Indians.

With six days (and eight games) remaining in the regular season, Salem trails Kinston by three and a half games for the final playoff spot in the Carolina League Southern Division.

The Sox dug themselves an early 5-0 deficit in the opener, with the Nats scoring twice in the first on a two-run double from Jamar Walton and thrice more in the second off Salem starter Michael Lee.

The Red Sox quickly snagged two back in their half of the second, with Oscar Tejeda tripling in Will Middlebrooks and then scoring on Ryan Dent's ground-out. Reliever Zach Hammes kept the Sox close with four scoreless innings out of the bullpen, but Salem was stymied over the remainder of the five innings thrown by former Avalanche hurler Jimmy Barthmaier.

The Red Sox loaded the bases in both the sixth and seventh innings, but went 0-8 with runners in scoring position in the ballgame, scrapping across just one more run to fall 5-3.

In game two, Salem encountered quick adversity again when Derek Norris blasted a solo-homer off Mark Holliman in the first inning. The contest remained 1-zip into the fourth, until Hassan and Tejeda popped back-to-back jacks against Pat Lehman to surge Salem ahead 2-1. The dingers were the eighth for Hassan and the 11th for Tejeda.

Mark Holliman retook the mound for the top of the seventh, having allowed just two hits since Norris' first-inning blast. But Bill Rhinehart crushed a double off the top of the wall in right-center, and after Tyler Moore flew out to shallow center, the Sox pulled the plug on Holliman and Cesar Cabral took over.

Pitching for the first time since the disastrous fifth inning on Sunday, Cabral yielded a deep fly to left field from Sean Rooney. Hassan offered a leaping attempt at the wall, but came up empty and the ball fell in for a game-tying double.

A pinch-hit single for Jose Lozada put runners on the corners, but Cabral induced a double play from Sean Nicol to keep the game even at two, heading to the bottom of the last.

Jon Hee opened the final frame with a leadoff single and was pinch-run for by Ryan Dent. The speedy shortstop stole second, but on Drew Hedman's pop-fly to shallow center, Dent was doubled off second-base on a bang-bang throw from Chris Curran. With two outs and the bases empty, extras seemed imminent. But Bermudez drew a walk to prolong the inning. Then, Luis Segovia hit a chopper to third, with Robby Jacobson airmailing the throw to second, allowing both runners to be safe.

Mitch Dening also drew a walk to load the bases for Hassan, who fell behind in the count 0-2 and fouled off a few tough pitches from Joe Testa before watching a 3-2 toss inch inside to bring home the winning run.

For Potomac's lefthander Testa, it was the second time in three days that he was on the mound for a tough walk-off, as he hit Frederick's Pedro Florimon with a pitch on Sunday at Harry Grove Stadium to end that game as well.

The Sox record moved to 70-60 for the full-season, 28-32 in the second half.

Down by three and a half games in the playoff chase, Salem has little margin for error as they host Potomac for game three of a five-game set at Lewis-Gale Field.

The action continues at 7:05 on Wednesday, with Miguel Gonzalez starting for the Red Sox opposite Nationals' righthander Marcos Frias.

DANVILLE, Va. - Just when you thought you'd seen it all this season, the Danville Braves had just one more trick up their sleeves tonight: handing the Burlington Royals a 12-0 thrashing.

Though it will be the Royals who take the Appalachian League East Wild Card as they hold the tie-breaker, the rivals finish with identical 34-34 records, as the Braves what would have been their first losing season in recent history.

After running into trouble last night with runners in scoring position, the D-Braves quickly put that memory to rest as they took a 5-0 lead before the first inning was out.

With the bases loaded and one out, a wild pitch by Burlington starter Leonel Santiago let in the first D-Brave run.

Up to bat for the first time as a D-Brave, catcher Cory Brownsten notched his first hit - a two-RBI double to put Danville on top 3-0.

Still not done, two more runs came across as first baseman Alberto Odreman singled and Kenny Fleming tripled, before the third out was recorded by the ninth batter.

Shut down in order in the second inning, the D-Braves struck again with another three tallies in the home half of the third to catapult them to an 8-0 lead.

The three spot came thanks to RBI singles by the red-hot Brownsten and Fleming, and an RBI ground out by second baseman and newcomer Fernando De Los Santos.

The other half of the story was much different tonight, as Kyle Farrell got the start on the hill for Danville, and proceeded to have his best performance of the 2010 season.

Through the opening three innings, Farrell allowed just two hits, while striking out three Royals. But it just got better from there, as he wracked up another five K's through his remaining two innings of work, including three consecutive whiffs in the fourth inning.

After giving up eight, seven earned, in three innings, Santiago was pulled for Burlington reliever Justin Mazur who stopped the bleeding through the sixth inning. In his opening three innings of work, Mazur gave up a lone hit, and struck out two batters.

But the D-Braves were not ready to let their fire be put out just yet, and threw another four on the board in the seventh.

With his second two-RBI double of the game, Brownsten put the Braves up 10-0. At the very next at bat, Odreman knocked in his second base runner of the game with his second double, and shortstop Matt Lipka recorded his first RBI as a D-Brave before the inning was out.

For the second straight night, the Braves got outstanding innings of relief courtesy.

Tonight's bullpen efforts were kicked off in the sixth by recently-promoted right-handed pitcher Dan Winnie. In his two innings on the mound, Winnie allowed just one hit and struck out a lone batter, before Matthew Suschak came into the game in the eighth, and faced just three batters in the eighth.

With a healthy 12-0 lead in the ninth, Edigson Mora closed out the game and allowed just one more Burlington hit to leave them with six on the night.

For starting the blanking of the Royals with his five-inning stellar start, Farrell got his fifth win of the season. His eight total strike outs were a season-most, and he rounds out the season with a 4.04 ERA.

For giving up eight runs on eight hits in the opening three innings, Burlington righty Santiago got just his third loss of the season. Closer Michael Giovenco was the only Royal pitcher not to allow any runs, as he finished the final 1.2 innings of the game.

While there were several offensive stars in the Danville line-up tonight, the most impressive performance by far was that of catcher Cory Brownsten.

When the game was out, Brownsten was 3-for-4, with three runs and five RBIs - the most by any D-Brave this season. Center fielder Kurt Fleming and infielder Odreman also had solid outings, going 3-for-5 and 2-for-4, respectively. The two contributed a combined three doubles, four runs and two RBIs.

Burlington first baseman Geoff Baldwin tallied the only extra base hit on the night for the Royals, and finished the night at 2-for-4 with a strike out.
