AAA - Buffalo Bisons (54-72)________________________________________
BUFFALO 4, TOLEDO 2 (11) (Box)
The Valentino Pascucci legend grows as he crushed a two-run home run to send everyone home happy from Coca Cola Field. The Bisons tied it in the ninth as CF Jesus Feliciano singled home 3B Zach Lutz with two outs to send it to extras, bailing out RHP John Lujan who blew a 1-0 lead in the eighth. RHP Chris Schwinden turned in a fine 5 and 2/3.
