BUFFALO 3, COLUMBUS 2 (10 innings): Returning from Tommy John surgery, Jenrry Mejia made his first 2012 start for Buffalo. He allowed two runs and two hits in six innings. "I thought he was outstanding," Bisons manager Wally Backman said. "His fastball was live, had some cutting action. His secondary stuff was pretty good." In a game that turned into a pitching duel -- with no hits surrendered between Josh Satin's fourth-inning single and Satin's ground-rule double in the 10th -- Buffalo's winning run came via a wild pitch. After Brad Emaus' groundout advanced Satin to third, Columbus reliever Hector Ambriz threw a wild pitch that allowed Satin to score the winning run. Mejia required only 68 pitches to make it through six innings. "The tempo of the game was outstanding -- the way he stayed right on the mound, attacked the hitters, took very little time in between pitches," Backman said. "He looked very focused to me tonight." After allowing a second-inning homer to Matt LaPorta, Mejia retired the next three Columbus batters. And after giving up a fourth-inning triple to Jason Donald, Mejia responded by retiring the next nine Clippers to complete his evening. "To me, he was overpowering at times tonight," Backman said. Josh Edgin and Elvin Ramirez contributed four no-hit relief innings. Ramirez handled the ninth and 10th innings to maintain a perfect 0.00 ERA for the Herd. He struck out the side in the 10th. "Bringing in Ramirez, he's done everything you could possibly ask of the guy," Backman said. "With those two guys coming in behind Mejia, you feel good about the chances." Box

The R-Phils answered in the bottom of the inning as Cesar Hernandez dumped an RBI double down the left-field line. Hernandez came home on two wild pitches from Batista. Den Dekker erased that deficit in the fifth. He squeaked his seventh homer of the season inside the left-field foul pole to tie the score at 3. In the sixth, Darin Ruf reached on a walk, moved to third on a single by Brandon Tripp and came home on a sac fly. Jiwan James led off the seventh with a solo homer.
