UTTERLY UNCONSCIOUS URBAEZ:
After recording five extra-base hits in his first 17 games of the season, Francisco Urbaez recorded four in the first two games of last series with Omaha, including his first home run of the year in Wednesday's 6-5 victory. Urbaez went six for his first six in the series with three doubles and a big fly, recording the Bats' second four-hit game of the season on Wednesday. Last week, he batted .450 (9-20) with a home run and three RBI in the six-game series against the defending International League champions. He continued his strong play by reaching base three times in Tuesday's series opener at Indianapolis while driving in Louisville's only run in the 3-1 loss. Overall, Urbaez is batting .293 (12-41) in May after posting a .225 average (9-40) in April.
TURNIN' TWO: After leading the International League with 146 double plays in 2024, the Bats are picking up right where they left off. Louisville fielders have turned 36 double plays in 39 games to open the 2025 season, tied for the International League lead with Charlotte and tied for 10th in all of Minor League Baseball. The Bats have turned multiple double plays in 10 games so far and have turned at least one in 25 of 39 games.
DOUBLES FOR DAYS: In addition to the turning two on defense, the Bats have been strong at reaching second at the plate. To date, the Bats' 68 doubles are 4th in the International League and tied for 13th in all of Minor League Baseball. Of the 19 players to take an at-bat for Louisville, 16 have recorded at least one double. Only Austin Hays, Trey Faltine, and Jacob Hurtubise have not recorded a two-base hit yet. On 4/20 at Columbus, the Bats ripped seven doubles en route to a 7-4 victory, with three coming off the bat of Levi Jordan. This marks the most doubles in a game for Louisville since they had seven on 5/18/23 vs. Jacksonville, and the most by an individual Bats player this season. Francisco Urbaez challenged Jordan's mark on 5/6, doubling twice in the win over Omaha. The Bats team record for most doubles in a game sits at 11, recorded on 5/3/10 at Buffalo. This season, the Bats have recorded at least one double in 33 of 39 games and two or more doubles in 21 of 39 games.
BATS BATTER BULLPENS: Through the first 39 games of the season, the Bats have been at their best offensively when facing opponent relief pitching. Through the first 39 games, the Louisville offense has batted .247 with a .348 on-base percentage and a .386 slugging percentage for a .734 OPS against opposing relief pitchers. They haven’t fared as well against starting pitching, batting just .227 with a .307 on-base percentage and 395 slugging percentage for a .702 OPS. However, the Bats have hit more home runs against starters (23) than relievers (15).
BACK (TO BACK) AT LAST: After going 593 days without hitting back-to-back home runs, the Bats recently accomplished the feat four times in 31 days. The first instance this season was on 4/6, when Edwin Rios led of the 10th inning with a two-run homer and Rece Hinds followed with a solo blast in the eventual 7-5 win. The back-to-back home runs in Omaha were the first for Louisville since Jason Vosler and Jose Barrero accomplished the feat vs. Toledo on 8/22/23. That was a span of 593 days and 187 games between back-to-back homers for the Bats, who did not accomplish the feat in 2024. Just 13 days later on 4/19 at Columbus, the pair of Rios and Hinds did it again, but in reverse order with Hinds leading the way as the pair of solo home runs turned a deficit into a tie in a game the Bats would eventually win. The Bats then accomplished the feat at home in the series finale against the I-Cubs on 4/27, with Reds rehabber Tyler Stephenson hitting his first career Triple-A home run and Will Benson following with a solo blast in the sixth to turn a 3-2 loss into a 4-3 lead in an eventual 6-4 loss. Eight days after that at home vs. Omaha on 5/7, Will Benson and Francisco Urbaez cranked back-to-back homers in the third inning, erasing a 3-0 deficit in an eventual 6-5 win.
IVAN SLAMS THROUGH: With the bases loaded in the bottom of the eighth inning in last Tuesday's series opener against Omaha, Bats left fielder Ivan Johnson connected on a 372-foot opposite-field grand slam to left for his fourth home run of the season, breaking the game open against former Bats reliever Ryan Hendrix and giving the Bats a 9-1 lead. The grand slam was the Bats' first of the 2025 season and their first in 197 games spanning 608 days. Before Johnson, the most recent Bat to hit a grand slam was Jason Vosler on 9/6/23 vs. St. Paul's Ronny Henriquez at Louisville Slugger Field. The Bats went all of 2024 without a grand slam, the only team in all of Triple-A and one of eight out of the 120 full-season affiliates in MiLB to not hit a grand slam last season. The 2024 season was only the second slam-less season in Louisville franchise history, with the first coming in 1993. On 6/14/94, Darrel Deak of the Louisville Redbirds broke a 651 day slam-less streak, with the previous slam coming on 9/1/92 by Lonnie Maclin. Incredibly, after Deak's slam, the Redbirds hit another grand slam the next day on 6/15/94, this time from Phil Stephenson.
STARTERS SEEKING MORE: While Aaron Wilkerson was solid Tuesday as he has been for most of the season, the Bats rotation has struggled to gain momentum at times. Through the season's 39 games, Louisville's starters are 5-12 with a 4.71 ERA over 158.2 innings. Wilkerson has earned three of those wins and is the only starter to record more than one win for the Bats this season. When excluding Wilkerson, the remaining Louisville starters have combined to go 2-11 with a 4.78 ERA. While the starting staff has pitched 158.2 innings to rank ninth in the International League in innings pitched by a rotation, Louisville starters have struck out just 117 over the first 39 games, nine behind the 126 struck out by the Memphis Redbirds to date.
PROSPECT RANKINGS: The Bats current active roster features two of the Reds' Top 30 prospects according to MLB.com. They are recently-activated reliever Connor Phillips (No. 15) and big righty Zach Maxwell (No. 23).
