Trevor Crowe, Lonnie Chisenhall continue fast start in Columbus loss: Minor league report

Aeros shut down by Trenton, Carolina's errors seal loss to Winston-Salem, Lake County falls in slugfest.

AAA Columbus Clippers

Bats 5, Clippers 3: RF Trevor Crowe (.429) doubled twice and singled, and 3B Lonnie Chisenhall (.333) doubled twice, but Columbus lost to host Louisville (Ky.) in International League play Sunday. Clippers RHP Zach McAllister (0-1, 4.00 ERA) allowed five runs, nine hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out three. SS Justin Toole (.500) also had two hits for Columbus.

Bats RHP Brett Tomko, a Euclid native who has 100 career major-league victories, gave up one run in 41/3 innings but walked four and left before he could qualify for the win. An infielder named Dorn -- first baseman Daniel, not third baseman Roger -- homered for Louisville off McAllister, raising his batting average to .171.

AA Akron Aeros

Thunder 2, Aeros 1: LF Jared Goedert (.355), C Roberto Perez (.231) and 3B Ryan Rohlinger (.280) each had two hits, but host Akron was unable to complete a four-game sweep against Trenton (N.J.) in Eastern League play at Canal Park. LHP Eric Berger (0-2, 8.00) allowed two runs in five innings for the Aeros. DH Cody Johnson (.375) homered, and C Jose Gil (.273) singled in a run for the Thunder.

Advanced A Carolina Mudcats

Dash 6, Mudcats 5: LHP T.J. House (0.00) struck out eight and did not allow an earned run in six innings, SS Ronny Rodriguez (.259) hit a three-run homer and 1B Jeremie Tice (.207) also went deep, but Carolina lost a Carolina League contest to host Winston-Salem (N.C.). The Mudcats committed three errors, leading to four unearned runs.

A Lake County Captains

Hot Rods 22, Captains 12: RHP Cody Anderson allowed four runs in the first five innings. That was host Lake County's best pitching line of the day. Bowling Green (Ky.) hit six homers, had three players with at least five runs batted in -- six by 3B Tyler Goeddel (.406), five by OF Todd Glaesmann (.316) and five by OF Drew Vettleson (.294) -- and scored 18 runs in the last three innings to pound the Captains.

Lake County RHP Kyle Blair (0-2, 20.86) gave up 13 runs in 31/3 innings and RHP Jeff Johnson (32.40) five runs in two-thirds of an inning. The Captains got homers from C Alex Lavisky (.323), RF Jordan Smith (.333) and pinch hitter Patrick Tolentino (1.000).
