Yellowstone Upended by Buffalo, 6-4
Nick Koonts made an impact in the 6-4 Buffalo win over Yellowstone. Koonts, who led the AL in triples with 14 in 2039, was 3-4 with a double and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Jimmy Miller, the winning pitcher, improved to 11-12. He pitched 8 innings, giving up 10 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 5 and walking 2. Randy Nelson converted his 11th save in 13 tries.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Tyler Steele? The 24-year old catcher Steele stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put Buffalo up, 5-3. For the game, he was 3 for 5, including 2 doubles and 1 single.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Koonts.

With this game in the books, Buffalo is 67-78, Yellowstone 63-81.
