Triple-A: Las Vegas 51s (61-64)
A run in the seventh would be the difference for Las Vegas as they dropped a tight contest on Saturday evening, their third consecutive loss against first place El Paso. Bryce Brentz got the scoring going in the top of the first, going deep to left after a single from Zach Borenstein, and giving the 51s a 2-0 lead. In the bottom of the inning, however, the home team followed the visitors’ lead. Luis Urias walked with one out, and highly rated Padres farmhand Francisco Mejia followed with a two-run blast of his own against PJ Conlon.
