INDIANAPOLIS - A five-run sixth inning secured a series victory for the Buffalo Bisons as they defeated the Indianapolis Indians, 6-2, on Sunday afternoon at Victory Field.
Wilkin Ramos (L, 0-2) was tagged for all five runs in the fifth inning, loading the bases with no outs on a double and back-to-back hit batters. Brandon Valenzula drove in a run with a walk and Rainer Nunez plated another with a fielder's choice to center. Jack Little replaced Ramos and the Bisons (23-32, 53-75) scored three more in the frame for a 6-2 advantage.
The Indians (33-24, 75-56) opened the scoring in the second inning when Sammy Siani launched his third home run of the season, a two-run shot, deep into right field.
Buffalo chipped away with a solo home run by RJ Schreck in the third inning, cutting the lead to 2-1 before the big sixth inning.
Nick Dombkowski opened for the Indians, allowing just the homer to Schreck across 4.0 frames.
Alek Manoah (W, 1-0) tossed a quality start in his MLB rehab outing, totaling 6.0 innings of two-run ball with five hits, four walks and three strikeouts.
Indianapolis begins a six-game road series at Columbus on Tuesday night at 6:15 PM. The Indians have not named a starting pitcher and RHP Austin Peterson (3-4, 4.15) is set to take the mound for the Clippers.
