It's a bad day for the Cleveland Indians ... the big club loses in Seattle, and all of its minor league clubs lose as well.

AAA Columbus Clippers

Mud Hens 5, Clippers 3 Wes Hodges clubbed his 14th home run for Columbus, but the Clippers lost an International League game at home to Toledo. Zach McAllister (9-12) pitched six innings, giving up five runs -- all earned -- on nine hits and three walks.

Notes: Coupled with Louisville's victory over Indianapolis, the Clippers lead over the Bats in the International League West Division fell to a half game. The Clippers have at least clinched the wild-card spot.

AA Akron Aeros

SeaWolves 10, Aeros 5 Erie, Pa., scored seven runs in the bottom of the seventh and doubled the score on Akron in an Eastern League game.

Notes: The loss eliminated Akron from the playoffs. The defending Eastern League champs will miss the postseason for the first time since 2004.

Advanced A Kinston Indians

Keys 10, Indians 5 Kinston, N.C., starter T.J. House (6-10) gave up five runs (three earned) in six innings as host Frederick, Md., rolled to a victory.

A Lake County Captains

Loons 5, Captains 3 Lake County's Owen Dew (1-2) gave up two runs, both earned, in three innings of middle relief, and the Captains lost a Midwest League game to Great Lakes in Midland, Mich.

Notes: Starting Captains pitcher Brett Brach picked a runner off base in the first inning.

A Mahoning Valley Scrappers

Jammers 6, Scrappers 3 Jamestown, N.Y., scored three in the first and never trailed in a New York-Penn League victory over Mahoning Valley in Niles, Ohio. Cole Cook (0-3) gave up four runs in 41/3 innings.

Independent Lake Erie Crushers

Crushers 1, Kings 0 Lake Erie recorded its third walk-off victory in four nights, with a win over visiting Kalamazoo, Mich., in the Frontier League. Joel Collins knocked in the run with a bases-loaded infield hit.
