Pinstriped Performances: Patriots Avoid Elimination, RailRiders Going Home

As the 2022 MiLB season winds to a close, it was a day of ups and downs for the two remaining active affiliates. Both will wrap up their seasons tomorrow – Somerset as either the champs or runners-up of the Eastern League, and Scranton due to their schedule and campaign coming to an end before the playoffs.
