Overview

  • Akron hammered Reading 19-10 on 24 hits, with Ralphy Velazquez going 3-for-5 with a home run and a double as Jacob Cozart and Wuilfredo Antunez each notched four-hit games.
  • Columbus fell 7-5 at Toledo after a bullpen game unraveled, as opener Jake Miller allowed three in one inning, Ross Carver gave up two in two, and Triston McKenzie yielded an unearned run in his Triple-A return.
