Norfolk didn't advance a runner past second base against Warren (6-2) and Lance Pendleton, who pitched two innings of hitless relief.

Scranton scored its runs on RBI doubles by P.J. Pilittere in the second and Jordan Parraz in the fourth.

Right-hander Mitch Atkins (1-3) took the loss for the Tides. He allowed two hits and four runs in seven innings.

Yankees catcher Jesus Montero had two hits.
