The Red Wings ‘pen gave up four in the 7th to turn a 2-0 deficit into a 6-0 chasm as they dropped their third straight to the Bisons, 7-1. Jackson Rutledge took the loss, giving up two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out six. Rochester avoided the shutout with the help of a two-out error in the 8th as Cody Wilson, who recorded the fourth and final hit (all singles) with one out in the inning, took second on a Darren Baker walk and went to third when Luis García beat out a grounder to second that Buffalo couldn’t turn into a twin killing.

Brad Lord turned in his best outing since getting bumped to High-A, tossing five scoreless innings with four hits, two walks, and three whiffs. MLB Rehab Carl Edwards Jr. retired just one of five batters faced to blow the save. Caleb Farmer homered in the 7th to tie things up at 3-3 but that would be the final hit of the night as the IronBirds bullpen locked it down for three innings to enable the comeback, as Matt Merrill took the loss on a single in the 10th that sent in the free runner. Farmer and Boisserie both went 2-for-4 with a run scored to lead the Wilmington offense.
