TODAY’S GAME: Tonight, the Buffalo Bisons face the Toledo Mud Hens in the third game of a four-game series at Fifth Third Field (6:00 p.m.). The Herd has fallen in defeat in the first two games of the series, 5-2 and 3-2. Following the conclusion of this series tomorrow, the Bisons will travel to Columbus for a four-game set, June 5-8. The Bisons are 14-14 in road games this season.

FIFTH THIRD WOES: The Bisons struggles in Toledo continued last night as the Herd is just 1-13 in their last 14 games at Fifth Third Field. Buffalo was swept by the Mud Hens at their home in both 2009 and 2010 and won just one of four games last year. Toledo visits Coca-Cola Field from July 16-19.

HARVEY: RHPMATT HARVEY makes his team-high 12th start for the Bisons today. The righty is coming off a six-inning no-decision on May 29 against Columbus. He allowed just one run on three hits in that outing. In his last eight starts, Harvey is 5-0 with a 2.91ERA. During the stretch since April 20, he has struck out 47 and allowed just 34 hits in 46.1 innings of work.
