 The Tri-City ValleyCats still haven't won a series yet this season.

The struggling 'Cats dropped a 9-8 heartbreaker to Sussex County on Thursday afternoon, despite homers from Jake Reinisch (Shenendehowa/Wake Forest) and Ranko Stevanovic (a grand slam, the 2nd ValleyCat slam in the series), and two defensive gems from Aaron Whitley (Niskayuna). Sussex County goes to 4-2 on the season vs. Tri-City.

The 'Cats will try to turn things around vs. Ottawa tonight at 6:30.

Marcus Jackson will continue his college basketball career outside the 518.

Jackson will play for Mercyhurst next season after spending the last three years between UAlbany & Siena.

Dylan Davis hasn't yet reached the winner's circle at Saratoga during the Belmont Stakes festival, but, on Thursday, Flavian Prat & Manuel Franco had 8 of the 11 winners between them, with 4 each. Tyler Gaffalione had 2 and Irad Ortiz, Jr. had the other.

Racing at Saratoga continues through Sunday.

Windham-Ashland-Jewett advanced to the Class D state semi-finals with a 10-1 win over Chapel Field on Thursday. They'll next play the winner of Fort Ann vs. Crown Point, taking place tomorrow, next Friday at 11:30 am in Binghamton.

Former Shaker star Tommy Kahnle is back in the major leagues. 

Kahnle was called up by Boston on Thursday from AAA Worcester, just in time for a weekend series against the Yankees. We'll be keeping an eye on that.
