Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs were trampled by the Buffalo Bisons (Blue Jays), 8-1.
It was a rough start for Jordan Wicks, who took the loss after surrendering seven runs on nine hits over 2.2 innings. Two of those nine hits were three-run home runs. Wicks struck out one and walked one.
Iowa’s only run came on an eighth-inning home run by second baseman Chase Strumpf, his fourth this year. Strumpf was 2 for 3 with a double and the homer.
DH Moisés Ballesteros extended his hitting streak to 17 games with a single in the eighth inning.
