AAA: Louisville Bats 3, Rochester Red Wings 2

Despite a valiant effort from SP Andrew Albers, the Red Wings lost to the Bats yesterday. Albers pitched 5.2 innings, giving up three earned runs and two walks.

On the offensive side, 1B Kennys Vargas did what he likes to do, mashing a solo tater in the 5th inning. That was cool.

3B Miguel Sano, on rehab assignment, when 0-for-3 with one walk.
