2B Darren Baker logged a career game, going 4-for-5 with a homer, triple, and pair of singles. The 24-year-old's four-hit performance was the first of his career, and his eighth-inning game-tying homer was only the third long ball in his 138 MiLB games played.

3B Jake Alu, who returned to the Red Wings lineup last night, logged three hits and an RBI in his season debut. The third-baseman turned in a 3-for-4 day at the plate with an RBI and a run scored.

Alu earned International League Player of the Month honors with the Wings in September of 2022 after hitting .409 (36-for-88) with seven home runs, a triple, eight doubles, and 25 RBI in 23 games.

Rochester reliever RHP Jake Irvin made his Triple-A debut on April 1, 2023, against Lehigh Valley, working 4.1 innings with four strikeouts. Irvin split the 2022 season between High-A Wilmington and Double-Harrisburg, making nine starts with Wilmington and 15 with Harrisburg. He allowed three earned runs or less in 18 of his 24 starts.

RF Franklin Barreto launched a two-run shot, part of a two-hit day, to bring Rochester within striking distance in the fourth, which marked his third homer in his last two days.
