Heathcott’s big night goes for naught in loss

Myron Leslie was released today, allowing Dellin Betances to come off the disabled list. There just wasn’t enough room for the guy in the organization.

The Triple-A Scranton box score isn’t updating for whatever reason, so I have no idea what’s going on. I do know this much: Andrew Brackman allowed three hits and three runs in six innings. He struck out seven and walked (ugh) five. Andy Sisco and Eric Wordekemper also pitched.
