It was a rough day for the Blue Jays organization.

On Friday, every “A” affiliate for the Blue Jays had a player hit a home run, but overall teams were 1-4, with one team breaking a six-game losing streak to save the organization from an organizational sweep.
Let’s dig into the latest Minor League Report!
<h2>Buffalo fell 7-4</h2>
On Friday, the Buffalo Bisons fell 7-4 to the St. Paul Saints (Minnesota), bringing their season record to 26-23 for third in the International League East.
Leo Jimenez hit his fifth home run of the season, which is notable because earlier in his career, he was generating almost no power. Now 162 plate appearances into the season, he is just three homers shy of matching his career-best that came in 333 plate appearances in New Hampshire last season.
