Bowling Green had enough offense for everyone else on Saturday.
Triple-A Durham Bulls (13-11)
Durham limited Pawtucket to four hits but came up short in a 2-1 loss. Curt Casali's single in the fourth scored one run, but Allan Dykstra was thrown out at home trying to score. An inning later, Sean Coyle, the brother of Rays minor league Tommy, hit a solo home run to decide the game. Matt Buschmann allowed two runs on three hits and a walk in six innings with four strikeouts, and Matt Andriese was good in relief, striking out four in two scoreless innings.
Double-A Montgomery Biscuits (11-12)
A six-run inning sunk Montgomery in its 8-2 loss to Mississippi. Just after the Biscuits tied the game at two, Austin Pruitt allowed two runners to reach before he was ejected along with manager Brady Williams. Colton Reavis let the game get away and allowed six runs, including two with two outs. Pruitt was charged with four runs in 4-plus, and Reavis allowed four in two innings of work. Jake DePew had two of Montgomery's four hits.
Class A-Advanced Charlotte Stone Crabs (15-8)
Charlotte only had two hits, but the Stone Crabs hung in there before falling 4-3 to Fort Myers in 11 innings. Charlotte got its first run without the benefit of a hit, and it got both of them two innings later. Joey Rickard doubled, and Juniel Querecuto drove in two with a double later in the inning. The Charlotte offense only generated three walks the rest of the way. Starter Ryne Stanek allowed a run on five hits and three walks in six innings with four strikeouts, and Jeff Ames would take the loss despite allowing just a run in 3 1/3 innings.
Class A Bowling Green Hot Rods (14-9)
Bowling Green blew open the game late in its 10-4 win over Lansing. Leading 1-0 after five, Bralin Jackson singled home a pair of runs in the three-run sixth, and he did the same an inning later. After the Hot Rods scored a single run in the eighth, Jackson scored one of two runs on Coty Blanchard's double. Chris Pike allowed a run in six innings, and the Lugnuts made the score a little more respectable against Brian Miller.
