The three Kentucky Minor League Baseball teams were undefeated Monday, and one recently traded Kentucky high school alum made his debut for his new organization. You can see those stories and more below in the daily BluGrass Baseball MiLB roundup:

 

The Lexington Legends held Hagerstown to five hits in a 3-1 win. Right-handed pitcher Mike Foltynewicz earned his 13th win of the season after surrendering two hits in six scoreless innings while striking out seven batters and walking four. Right-handed pitcher Dayan Diaz surrendered one run in the ninth inning but still earned his 17th save of the season. No Legends batter tallied multiple hits in the game. (Box Score)

 

A five-run first inning was all the offense the Bowling Green Hot Rods needed in a 7-4 win versus Fort Wayne. Hot Rods catcher Alejandro Segovia was 3-5 with two runs scored, and first baseman Cameron Seitzer was 3-4 with one double, one RBI, one run scored and one walk. Right fielder Drew Vettleson slugged his 12th home run of the season.
