Manchester, N.H. - Jon Berti and Andrew Guillotte each had two hits, but the New Hampshire Fisher Cats (Blue Jays Double-A affiliate) fell 4-1 to the Bowie Baysox (Baltimore Orioles) on Saturday night at Northeast Delta Dental Stadium.
Bowie (28-30) started the game with three consecutive hits. Anderson Feliz and Anthony Santander reached on singles. Feliz scored on a double by Corban Joseph to make it 1-0. The Baysox tacked on a run with a sacrifice fly by Ryan Mountcastle to take a 2-0 lead.
