Jimenez gave the Bisons a 4-3 advantage.Another former RailRider, switch-pitcher Pat Venditte (1-0) picked up the win going the final 1 1/3 innings.SWB fell behind 3-0 after three innings. Jimenez and Adams drove in runs on extra-base hits in the two-run second inning. The third Buffalo run scored in the third when an error by second baseman Pete Kozma allowed the Bisons&#8217; third run to score.After scoring a run in the fifth on an RBI-double by Aaron Judge, the RailRiders tied the score at 3-3 in the sixth on a two-run homer by Eddy Rodriguez.Luis Cessa got the start and took a no-decision for SWB going the first five innings allowing three runs. Daniel Camarena (0-1) took the loss giving up two runs in two innings pitched.Rodriguez, Donovan Solano and Rob Refsnyder each had two hits for the RailRiders.Refsnyder&#8217;s sixth-inning double was his third extra-base hit of the year and his first since April 12 at Pawtucket.

He has hit safely in seven straight including a 7 for 18 (.389) performance on the road trip with five runs scored.Before the game, the New York Yankees announced that infielder Deibinson Romero had been activated off of the SWB disabled list and utility man Jose Rosario was sent to Double-A Trenton.Game 2 of the three-game set in Buffalo is Tuesday at 6:05 p.m. when right-hander Chad Green (0-3, 1.44) takes the mound for SWB versus Bisons RHP Roberto Hernandez (0-0, 0.00).Bisons 5, RailRiders 3RailRiders`AB`R`H`BISolano 3b`5`1`2`0Judge rf`4`0`1`1Heathcott cf`5`0`0`0Swisher 1b`4`0`1`0Refsnyder dh`4`1`2`0Puello lf `3`0`0`0Rodriguez c`3`1`2`2Kozma 2b`4`0`0`0Diaz ss`4`0`1`0Totals`36`3`9`3Buffalo`AB`R`H`BIBerti lf`4`0`0`0Burns 2b`4`1`2`0Brown rf `3`0`0`0Montero dh`3`0`0`0Casilla pr`0`1`0`0Kotchman 1b`4`1`1`0Lake cf`3`1`1`0Jimenez c`3`1`1`2Adams 3b`3`0`2`2Mier ss`3`0`0`0Totals`30`5`7`4RailRiders`000`012`000`&#8212;`3Buffalo`021`000`02x`&#8212;`5E: Solano (3), Kozma (2).
