Triple-A - Las Vegas 51s (74-60)_______________________________________
ROUND ROCK 4, LAS VEGAS 1 (Box)
The 51s' bats went quiet as Vegas fell to Round Rock 4-1. Seth Lugo had an overpowering start, but got Vegas'd and gave up three runs despite striking out eight and walking only one in five-and-a-third innings. Brandon Nimmo, sitting again for Wally reasons, got in the game when Darrell Ceciliani limped off, and was of course switched from CF to RF, again for Wally reasons.
