Buffalo and Indianapolis are meeting for the first time in the 2019 campaign. The teams will only meet twice this season, the next time coming 6/18-6/20 when the I-Tribe come to Buffalo for a three-game set. After taking just two games from Indianapolis in 2018, the Bisons will look to flip the script.

Patrick Kivlehan

Patrick Kivlehan continued to see the ball well as he finished 2-3 on the night as well as walking once. He also added to his home run total, after he hit a solo home shot in the seventh inning. Kivlehan now has nine home runs on the season, as well as 22 RBIs. Five of his nine homers have come with the Herd, while his first four were as a member of the I-Tribe.

Socrates Brito

Socrates Brito also contributed in the offense last night as he hit his sixth double of the season that scored Roemon Fields. Brito now has a five-game hitting streak where he is 7-22 (.321). He will look to continue that streak in todays game as he faces Cam Vieaux, who has given up 12 hits in just 15.0 IP.

RHP David Paulino made his first appearance since coming off the IL and pitched four shutout innings giving up

only two hits. Paulino brought his ERA down to a 3.80 as he threw 68 pithces and also struck out six Indianapolis batters. The Bisons now have more pitching depth as Paulino will look to get back into the rotation for the first time since April 30th.
