Albuquerque led wire-to-wire, scoring a run on two hits in the top of the first. Jamie Hoffman opened the game with a single, stole second and scored on Michael Restovich's two-out RBI single. Restovich pushed the Isotopes lead to 2-0 with a one-out solo homer in the fourth. Albuquerque capped the scoring in the seventh on Scott Van Slyke's two-run homer.
Express starter Josh Banks (9-12) was saddled with the loss; he allowed four runs on seven hits and no walks with a season-high eight strikeouts over 7.0 innings. Gary Majewski and Roy Corcoran each worked a scoreless inning of relief.
