The Iowa Cubs beat on the Louisville Bats (Reds), 9-3.
It was only Wyatt Short’s third career start and it was the longest outing of his career. Short did very well as he gave up just one run on four hits over four innings. The one run off Short came on a home run in the second inning by Stuart Fairchild. Short struck out three and walked one.
