Edit - 4:19... The livestats format fooled me, or I'm just a fool... Game is now tied going to extra innings
Edit - 5:07... UB falls 7-6
The Bulls entered game three of their series against Miami having yet to score a run on the East leading RedHawks. Buffalo took very little time to remedy that but UB's first offense of the series was not enough to overcome a Miami flurry in the middle innings.
