51s fall short to River Cats

The 51s allowed two runs in the sixth inning and four more in the seventh, losing to the Sacramento River Cats 7-4 Monday night in a Pacific Coast League game in Sacramento, Calif.

Las Vegas (5-13) went ahead 2-1 in the top of the sixth on a Randy Ruiz RBI double and a Jason Lane RBI single, but Sacramento's Matt Carson hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the sixth to put the River Cats back in the lead.
