There was a whole lot of losing on Wednesday in the Blue Jays organization.

Only four affiliates were in action, as the two rookie league teams had Wednesday off. Of the four “A” affiliates in action three lost while only one won.
Let’s dig into the latest Minor League Report.
<h2>Buffalo’s bats went cold</h2>
It wasn’t a great day for the Buffalo Bisons, as they fell 3-1 to the Rochester Red Wings to go to 3-6 in the second-half, the worst in the International League.
The Bisons’ batters had just six hits, all of which were singles. Phil Clarke, Gabriel Cancel, Riley Tirotta, Will Robertson, Damiano Palmegiani, and Miguel Hiraldo each had a single, while Cam Eden and Rafael Lantigua both walked twice.

<h2>Dunedin has won four straight games</h2>
The Dunedin Blue Jays have been on a roll in recent times, defeating the Clearwater Threshers 6-3 to move their second-half record to 6-5. They have won four consecutive games, and are two games back of the division lead.
