Let’s take a look at the week that was!
<h2>Bisons lost the first two against Lehigh Valley</h2>
Thanks to a rainout on Thursday, the Buffalo Bisons played just two games so far this week. Tuesday’s game was a 6-5 loss, with Alan Roden and Josh Rivera hitting home runs. Roden also hit a double, as did Rainer Nunez. CJ Van Eyk made his Triple-A debut, going five innings with three earned runs, three walks, and three strikeouts. Trenton Wallace pitched in relief, pitching two scoreless innings with two walks and a strikeout. Justin Bruihl was tagged with a loss, giving up two earned runs in an inning of work.

Jimmy Burnette was tagged with the loss, giving up four runs, only one was earned. Dillon Tate, Ryan Jennings, and Andrew Bash pitched scoreless innings, while Josh Walker gave up two earned runs in two-thirds of an inning.
<h2>Fisher Cats have lost six of their last eight</h2>
Like the Bisons, the New Hampshire Fisher Cats only played two games thanks to a postponement on Thursday. Also like the Bisons, they dropped their first two games, losing 5-0 on Tuesday. Yohendrick Pinango, Dasan Brown, and RJ Schreck hit singles, while Cade Doughty struck out four times and Jay Harry struck out three times. Rafael Sanchez made the start, giving up four earned runs in four innings of work. Alex Amalfi struck out five in two and two-thirds innings pitched. Bobby Milacki struck out three in two and one-third innings pitched.

Grant Rogers made his Double-A debut, giving up three runs (two earned) in five innings pitched with five strikeouts. Hunter Gregory pitched another scoreless inning, Johnathan Lavallee pitched two innings with one earned run allowed, and Justin Kelly struck out two in his inning pitched.
<h2>Canadians are on a seven-game losing streak</h2>
The Vancouver Canadians are now on a franchise-record seven-game losing streak. Tuesday saw them fall 6-4 to the Eugene Emeralds. Arjun Nimmala had a terrific game, going 3-3 with a walk while hitting his eighth home run of the season and a double. Aaron Parker had the other two hits in the game. <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/toronto-blue-jays-top-prospect-trey-yesavage-strikes-out-ten-vancouver-debut">Trey Yesavage made the start</a>, striking out 10 and allowing two earned runs in four innings pitched. <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/under-the-radar-blue-jays-prospect-gage-stanifer">Gage Stanifer</a> didn’t have a great outing, giving up four runs (three earned) in three and two-thirds innings pitched.
