SALT LAKE 9, LAS VEGAS 5 (BOX)

The 51s fell to the Salt Lake Bees by a score of 9-5. Vance Worley started the game for the 51s and didn’t have a great night. In four innings, he gave up six hits, four earned runs, and two walks. In the fifth inning, Tim Peterson relieved Worley, but he didn’t have great luck, either. He allowed four earned runs in two innings, and the 51s were forced to go back to the bullpen.

Buddy Baumann relieved Peterson and proved to be more successful. In two innings, he had two strikeouts, two walks, one hit, and one unearned run. At the plate, Cody Asche made his 51s debut, but he didn’t have a good showing as he struck out twice and had a fielding error. Ty Kelly was the 51s’ best hitter last night as he went 2-for-2 with a run, two doubles, one run batted in, and two walks.
