Minor League Game Review – 5/16/12

5/16 Game Review

Louisville lost 4-1. Box Score

• Kristopher Negron went 1-3 with a walk, 2 steals (13) and a run.
• Neftali Soto went 0-2 with 2 walks.
• Felix Perez went 2-3.
• Carlos Fisher threw 3 shutout innings with a walk and 2 strikeouts.

Game notes

The Bats struggles continue as they managed just 5 hits on the game and only scored because of an error. Chad Reineke had 8 strikeouts in 5 innings, but allowed 4 runs (3 earned). It would have been 2 runs and 1 earned had a pop up been caught rather than lost in the lights to end the inning.
