The Scranton Wilkes-Barre Yankees beat the IronPigs 6-2 at Coca-Cola Park on Sunday, knocking the 'Pigs out of the wildcard lead.
The IronPigs took a 2-1 lead on a Hector Luna home run and an Andres Blanco sacrifice fly.
But the Yankees scored two runs in the seventh inning and three more in the ninth to put it away.
Jonathan Pettibone gave up just one run in five strong innings, but had a no decision. J.C. Ramirez (3-2, 4.58) took the loss in relief.
The 'Pigs loss, coupled with Pawtucket's win, drops the 'Pigs to 0.5 games behind the Paw Sox for the International League wildcard lead.
The IronPigs (73-64) will resume their series with the Yankees on Monday at 7:05pm at Coca-Cola Park.
