York Revolution 7, Lancaster Stormers 5

(July 29, 2025 – York, Pa.): Jeffrey Wehler launched a walk-off two-run homer to left field with two outs in the ninth as the York Revolution pulled off a much-needed victory, 7-5 over the Lancaster Stormers on Tuesday night in front of 4,053 fans at WellSpan Park. The win is Rick Forney’s 200^th as Revolution manager, as the skipper becomes the second fastest to 200 victories in Atlantic League history.

The early innings were full of offense as Lancaster plated a first inning run on a balk called against Revs starter Alex Sanabia.

York hit Lancaster starter Noah Skirrow hard out of the gates as Jeremy Arocho ripped a leadoff single and Jalen Miller slammed a two-run homer to deep left center, thrusting York in front 2-1 immediately. Frankie Tostado followed with his 45^th double of the season, five shy of an Atlantic League record, on a shot to the gap in right center and Marty Costes drove his own double to the same alley, plating Tostado for a 3-1 lead.

Lancaster responded with its own three-run rally in the second, scoring on Evan Alexander’s two-run triple to right center and a bloop single by Slater Schield as the Stormers held a 4-3 lead before Sanabia recorded his fourth out.

The Revs starter hit his groove immediately thereafter, facing the minimum over his final 12 batters faced as he went five innings in the no-decision. He allowed just one other baserunner, a single in the fifth by Mason Martin who he immediately picked off at first base.

Skirrow also settled down until William Simoneit tied the game with a solo homer to right with two outs in the fourth, his 12th of the year, knotting things at 4-4.

York threatened to take the lead against Skirrow with runners at second and third and none out in the fifth, but reliever Billy Sullivan escaped with a ground out and a pair of strikeouts.

The Revs bullpen came up big as Ian Churchill fired his ninth consecutive scoreless outing in the sixth.

Alexander led off the seventh with a triple to right, but right hander Nick Mikolajchak struck out the next three batters, including blowing away Martin with a 97-mph heater to end the inning in electrifying fashion as he came off the mound to a fired up home crowd.

Lancaster took a 5-4 lead on Alex Isola’s slow roller toward the middle with two outs in the eighth against Mauricio Llovera, but the Revs again fought back.

Bubba Alleyne led off the home eighth with an infield single against Stormers reliever Cody Stashak and moved into scoring position with two outs on a Simoneit grounder. Arocho (4-for-5) tied a club record with his third double of the night, launching a drive off the Arch Nemesis to plate Alleyne, tying the game at 5-5 in dramatic fashion.

Cam Robinson (5-1) retired the side in order in the top of the ninth, striking out Martin looking to end the frame as Revs pitchers struck out the Stormers slugger three times in the game.

The Revs quickly had two outs and none aboard in the bottom of the ninth, but Shayne Fontana battled out a walk to keep the inning alive. Fontana stole second and moved to third when Isola’s throw bounced off of Fontana while sliding into second. Wehler was entangled in a full count battle with Gerson Moreno (1-1), and on the tenth pitch of the at-bat, cracked a towering two-run bomb past the far corner of the Nemesis, sending the home crowd into a frenzy as the Revs picked up their third walk-off win of the year.

Notes: York leads the season’s War of the Roses, 7-6. The Revs’ other walk-off wins came via a walk-off homer by Justin Connell vs Lancaster on April 30 and a sac fly by Brandon Lewis on May 20 vs Southern Maryland. It is the 95^th walk-off victory in WellSpan Park history and the 24^th to occur on a home run. The win snaps a four-game losing streak, the Revs’ longest since August, 2023. It also halts a five-game home skid, their longest since May, 2019. Miller and Wehler each clubbed their 13^th long balls, tied for the team lead. Miller (2-for-5) notched his ninth multi-hit game in his last 11, batting .431 on that stretch. He now has 98 hits on the year (tied for third in league) while scoring his 77^th run (tied for first) and stealing his 36^th base (second most). Wehler has a season-high-tying 10-game hitting streak and has 13 RBI on that streak. Robinson tossed his 27^th outing out of 29 total appearances without allowing an earned run, lowering his season ERA to 0.57. The Revs improve to 12-5 in last at-bat decisions (3-2 in walk-offs). York is also now 25-12 in comeback decisions. Forney’s 200^th win comes in his 332^nd game (200-132) with York; the only manager in league history to reach 200 wins faster was Somerset’s Brett Jodie who did it in 315 games. York’s 200 wins is second-most in the league since Forney took over, behind only High Point’s 204.

Up Next: The Revs host the Stormers on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. as RHP Foster Pace (7-3, 5.44) faces righty Michael McAvene (4-1, 4.34).

Lexington Legends 11, High Point Rockers 4

Lexington, KY – After a successful series in Charleston, Lexington kicked off its six-game homestand with a confident 11-4 victory over the High Point Rockers. Lexington’s pitching was able to tally 14 strikeouts, with 7 of them coming from Nic Laio. The Lexington offense also provided ample run support with home runs from Curtis Terry and Brady Whalen, and tallied its 20^th game this season scoring double digits and beginning to earn the affectionate nickname the Double Digit Dawgz.

This homestand welcomes the Rockers for six straight games in what could be the most important series of the second half. With the Legends sitting atop the South Division standings, leading the Rockers (who won the division’s First Half) by a half game coming into tonight, it’s a potential playoff preview between these two teams. On a hot summer night, in front of over 2,600 fans, the Legends gave the start to Nic Laio, whose last outing against High Point earned him a win in his six innings pitched. Erich Uelmen got the start for the Rockers, who is 1-1 against the Legends on the season.

Laio got things started by tallying his first two Ks before the Legends got out to an early lead in the first when Curtis Terry sacrificed himself to bring in the first run. Brian Fuentes laid down an RBI double to bring in Brady Whalen to really get things rolling smoothly. Lexington would add on to the lead in the second inning when Andy Atwood snuck home during a double play. Laio continued to dominate in the third as he tallied three strikeouts.

However, High Point would be on the board when Aidan Brewer drew a bases-loaded walk to bring in Braxton Davidson. This was followed by Carlos Amezquita, who laid down an RBI single that brought in two runs to tie the game. This tie would not last long at all as a single allowed Brian Fuentes to come home and put Lexington in front in the bottom of the fourth. The Legends continued to pile on in the fourth when Ryan McCarthy snuck home on a fielder’s choice before Xane Washington laid down an RBI single that brought Curtis Terry home, making it a 6-3 ballgame. High Point got one back in the top of the sixth off an RBI single from Ben Aklinski that brought in one run. This did not stagger the Legends one bit as Brady Whalen left the yard to plate two, and Brian Fuentes laid down an RBI single to make it 9-4 going into the final three frames.

The Legends’ infield continued the pressure in the seventh when they turned a double play to stop High Point in their tracks. EJ Cumbo tagged on another safety run in the bottom of the seventh with an RBI double. Josa Acosta came in for relief in the eighth, and he continued Lexington’s pitching dominance by tallying two more strikeouts. Curtis Terry would then tag on one final run in the eighth with a solo shot. Jack Lynch closed the game out for the Legends by earning the final two K’s of the game.

The Legends take game one of their six-game homestand against High Point 11-4. This gives Lexington a game-and-a-half lead over High Point in the standings, as they maintain their first-place spot. The win is given to Nic Laio, whose record improves to 8-5 on the year, and the loss is given to Erich Uelmen, whose record goes to 2-2 on the season. The Legends and Rockers face off again at Legends Field for game two of the series, with first pitch slated for 6:45 PM EST.
