The Iowa Cubs lost to the St. Paul Saints (Twins), 11-1.
It was a bullpen game for the Iowa Cubs, so Dakota Mekkes got the start. Mekkes retired the side in order in the bottom of the first inning. Everything went off the rails after that.
Mekkes retired the first two batters in the second, but then walked the next four batters. After a two-run single and yet another walk, Mekkes left the game for Bryan Hudson.
The final line on Mekkes was three runs on one hit over 1.
