The sound of a dying team

Triple-A Scranton had a scheduled off day, but tragedy has struck the team. I’m sure they’d much rather be playing today.

Jeff Nutt (25): 1 for 1, 1 2B – took over behind the plate for Romine after he left the game in the 6th inning following a ground out … not sure what’s up with that
