On Road, Lexington Drops Rome, 8-6
Jon Bates impressed in the 8-6 Lexington win over Rome. Bates, who was drafted in the 2nd round of the 2025 draft, went 3-5 with a double and 2 singles. He scored 3 runs. The Hammers drop to 6-6 and continue their mediocre start to the 2026 season.

Lexington used the timely hitting of César Germán to seize the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Legends on top, 8-6. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Lexington manager Brad Lincoln.
