Buffalo Bisons News Release


The Buffalo Bisons defeated the Pawtucket Red Sox tonight, 15-14, despite trailing 14-6 heading into the bottom of the ninth inning. The eight-run comeback ties a Modern Era record set August 19, 2000 when the Bisons trailed Ottawa 8-0 in the second game of a doubleheader before winning 9-8.

The victory is a new record for the largest ninth-inning comeback in Dunn Tire Park history. Buffalo set that record last season (August 8) when they scored seven runs with two outs in the bottom of the ninth to defeat Ottawa, 12-9.

The game was the completion of a suspended game from April 23. Pawtucket was leading 3-0 in the bottom of the first inning when winds and dangerous playing conditions forced the suspension of the game until tonight. The teams are currently in action with the night's regularly scheduled game (seven-inning game).
