The Princeton Rays need one more win to claim the Appalachian League championship
Durham, Bowling Green and Hudson Valley finish their 2015 seasons today. Montgomery's regular season is also over, but the Biscuits will take on Chattanooga in the Southern League playoffs starting Thursday.
Triple-A Durham Bulls (73-70)
A seven-run first inning was not helpful in Durham's 8-4 loss to Norfolk. The Tides sent 11 batters to the plate in the inning, six of them had hits, and a walk with the bases-loaded walk also hurt Scott Diamond. He would settle in, though, and finished with eight runs -- four earned -- allowed on eight hits in six innings.
