The Railriders took to get their first sweep of the season as they took on Louisville. Louisville looked to prevent getting swept at home. Nick Routt got the start for Louisville and Luis Cessa got the start for the Railriders. Routt started off the game with a 1-2-3 first inning for the Bats. Dilson Herrera hit a single on a deflected ball. Cessa retired both Sebastian Elizalde and Seth Mejias-Brean to keep the game scoreless. Donovan Solano and Mason Williams each singled with one out.

Rob Brantley would pick off Williams at third for the second out, then Cito Culver would fly out to right to end the top of the second. Jesse Winker would lead off with a single. Winker would forced out at second on a Phillip Ervin groundout back to Cessa. Ervin would also be forced out at second on Brantly grounder to third.

Clint Frazier would double to left with one out but a groundout and a strikeout ended the inning. Heller once again threw a 1-2-3 inning in his second inning of work. Alejandro Chacin came in to pitch the ninth for Louisville. Chacin would throw a 1-2-3 ninth to preserve a 9-1 victory over the Railriders.
Thoughts on the game: Well a dominant game by the Louisville Bats. Juan Perez had an impressive game with 2 homers, one inside the park and another to center. The Railriders had way too many errors in the loss (They had four).
Up Next: They continue their road trip as they travel to Indianapolis for a three game set. Chad Green faces off against Josh Lindblom.
