After Double-A Erie was forced to use six pitchers during Monday's 14-13 loss against Harrisburg, the SeaWolves desperately needed a big performance out of starter Myles Jaye on Tuesday.
The Tigers' No. 15 prospect delivered, tossing six scoreless innings and setting a career high with 11 strikeouts before Erie walked it off in the ninth against the Senators to win, 2-1.

Jaye surrendered just four hits, including three singles, and walked two in the outing, which also saw the 25-year-old righty generate six ground-ball outs and throw a season-high 96 pitches, 61 for strikes.
"I made a lot of quality pitches," Jaye told MiLB.com. "My fastball had an extra tick or two in velocity. Both of my breaking balls -- slider and curveball -- were as good as I can remember them being in my career."
He owns a 4.30 ERA through 37 2/3 innings after the scoreless performance, Jaye's third of the season and second in his last three starts for Erie, though he's still in search of his first win, with an 0-4 record through eight starts.

"I had an idea of what he was going to throw me and I just wanted to attack a certain pitch," Winker told MiLB.com. "He threw it and I put the barrel on the bat. It happened to get up and get out. So I was happy it got out."
• No. 90 overall prospect Matt Chapman (A's No. 4) stayed red hot as he belted his third homer in as many games to pace Triple-A Nashville in a shutout over Omaha. The 24-year-old third baseman later added a triple to finish 2-for-5 at the plate. All 10 of Chapman's home runs have come within the 22 games he's played this month, including six in his last nine. Joey Wendle (No. 18), meanwhile, fell a home run short of hitting for the cycle in a 4-for-5 performance for the Sounds.

• Yankees No. 21 prospectZack Littell set a season high with eight strikeouts and completed seven innings for a second straight start to lead Class A Advanced Tampa past Jupiter, 3-1.
