The same ole song was being sung by the Louisville Bats Sunday afternoon against the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. The Bats had gone in order four of the first five innings and twelve straight had been retired with one out in the sixth and they were trailing 1-0. Another loss being served right up. Neftali Soto was sick of it.

The Louisville Bats, who have struggled offensively all season long, broke out Saturday night to the tune of a 9-2 drubbing of the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. Chris Valaika, Kristopher Negron, and Neftali Soto each homered in the game while Danny Dorn doubled twice.

The Bats started the scoring off with Valaika’s solo shot in the third inning. Negron’s three run blast and Soto’s two-run homer, both in the fifth, gave the Bats a 6-0 lead.

The Louisville Bats could only muster five hits a night after losing a game in which they led by three runs. The Bats never led Wednesday night and were down 4-0 after a big fifth inning from the Rochester Red Wings.

Rene Tosoni led off the Red Wings’ fifth with a walk and later scored on a single from Pedro Florimon. The next batter, Wilikin Ramirez, ripped a 2-RBI double to left to make it 4-0. All three Red Wings runs scored with two outs.

The Louisville Bats won game one of their double header with the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs on Monday. The fourth inning was the most crucial in both games.

In game one, the Bats stormed to a 5-0 lead in the fourth. Willie Harris walked, Kristopher Negron singled, Denis Phipps singled, and Bill Rhinehart doubled to make it 3-0 before the Bats even had an out in the inning. Neftali Soto produced a run when his sacrifice fly scored Rhinehart. After Danny Dorn doubled, Bats starter Sean Gallagher helped himself by singling home Dorn, capping the Bats’ big inning.
