BUFFALO BLUES: On a rare warm-weather April Thursday night, the Rochester Red Wings fell to the Buffalo Bisons for a third consecutive contest, 8-1...DH ANDREW KNIZNER led the offensive effort with a four-hit performance, while CF ROBERT HASSELL III picked up two hits of his own and drove in the Red Wings' only run...Rochester will look to snap their three-game skid tonight, sending RHP CHASE SOLESKY to the mound against Bisons southpaw Easton Lucas.
KNIZ ME THRU THE PHONE: DH ANDREW KNIZNER became the second Red Wing this season to log four hits last night, and first to do so on the road...the veteran catcher finished 4-for-4 at the plate with a double and three singles, his first four-hit game since 8/23/2019 with Triple-A Memphis...through 13 games this season, he leads all Triple-A hitters (min. 25 AB) with a .471 batting average (16-for-34) and a .612 on-base percentage, and ranks second with a 1.230 OPS...
He is the first Red Wings designated hitter to log a four-hit game since DREW MILLAS on 8/22/2024 at LHV, and first to do so against the Bisons since Adam Brett Walker on 4/26/2016.
HOUSE RULES: 3B BRADY HOUSE extended his hitting streak to eight games last night with a double in the top of the first, and finished 1-for-3 while adding a walk and a run scored...since the streak began in game two on 4/17, the Georgia native carries a batting average of .364 (12-for-33) with three extra-base hits (2 HR, 2B) and five RBI...his 12 total hits over that span are tied for the second-most in the International League...
House leads all qualified Nationals Minor Leaguers this season with a .365 on-base percentage, a .471 slugging percentage, .836 OPS, 26 total hits, eight XBH, and 41 total bases.
BRZYKCY WALL: Rehabbing RHP ZACH BRZYKCY made his first appearance with Rochester last night, tossing 1.0 hitless frame with a walk and a strikeout...he has now appeared in 10 games at the Triple-A level dating back to his debut on 9/21/2022, and has allowed just one earned run across 10.2 innings of work (0.84 ERA), while striking out 10 and walking two.
KING ROBERT: CF ROBERT HASSELL III picked up his second multi-hit game of the series last night, going 2-for-4 with an RBI single for the Red Wings only run of the contest...he now has six multi-hit games this season, pulling himself into sole possession of second place on the team behind BRADY HOUSE (7)...
