Triple-A: Las Vegas 51s (27-39)

COLORADO SPRINGS 6, LAS VEGAS 2 (Box)

Vegas kicked off a series their Colorado Springs with a loss, dropping their sixth game in the last seven. The Sky Sox jumped out to an early 2-0 lead off of a Jeff Bandy two-run home run, then got to Cody Martin for another home run in the bottom of the fifth to extend their lead to 3-0. Vegas staged a two-out rally in the bottom of the top of the sixth with four straight singles to cut the deficit to one, but the Sox answered right back with three off of Kevin McGowan in the bottom of the frame, and Vegas went quietly the rest of the way.

Double-A: Binghamton Rumble Ponies (34-30)

ALTOONA 7, BINGHAMTON 2 (Box)

Advanced-A: St. Lucie Mets (26-36)

DAYTONA 6, ST. LUCIE 1 (Box)

Josh Prevost had a rough start, surrendering 12 hits over 4.2 innings, as St. Lucie also fell behind early and mustered little in the way of resistance later. The little offense the Mets put forth was mostly courtesy of a rehabbing Wilmer Flores, who stroked two singles and knocked in Lucie’s only run.

The game was scoreless into the top of the sixth, when with no one on, Raphael Gladu kicked off a rally with a two out double. Columbia wound up putting up three in the frame, with a two-run single from Jeremy Vasquez the big blow. Carlos Hernandez and Stephen Villines provided excellent bullpen work to secure the shutout.
