MOOSIC, PA (August 7, 2022) –The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders and Buffalo Bisons had their series finale suspended on Sunday afternoon with the score tied at 1-1 in the middle of the sixth inning. The game will be completed on September 26.

LJ Talley broke a scoreless tie in the fifth with a solo home run against RailRiders’ starting pitcher Mitch Spence. It was the third long ball this season for Talley with Buffalo. Spence pitched five innings of one-run ball with three punchouts in his second career Triple-A start.

The RailRiders answered in the bottom of the frame with a run of their own. With runners on first and second, Chris Owings single up the middle to bring Phillip Evans home and knot things up. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre loaded the bases later in the frame, but couldn’t grab the lead.

Following a scoreless frame of relief from Richard Rodríguez in the top of the sixth, a storm system moved in and the game was eventually suspended.

Sunday's game will be resumed when Buffalo returns to town on Monday, September 26, and be played to conclusion. A nine-inning nightcap will follow. Game time has yet to be determined.

Tickets from today's game will be treated like a rainout and can be exchanged for any remaining home game this season. Learn more by clicking here.
