The Bats got roughed up on Friday, falling 7-3 to the Rochester Red Wings. Keyvius Sampson made his second start for the Bats, tossing 5 innings of 2-run ball, striking out 5 and walking 4. Sam LeCure got rocked in 1 inning of work, allowing 5 earned runs on 4 hits and a walk, while striking out none. The offense struggled, scratching out 9 hits, none of the extra-base variety.
Friday was bad, but Saturday's game was even worse as the Bats got spanked 10-1. David "Mongo" Holmberg got beat like a rented mule, giving up 7 runs (6 earned) on 10 hits in 4.
