Hear the Herd after big win in home opener

April 11, 2012 - 6:26 PM

Lots of smiles in the Buffalo clubhouse after Wednesday's 12-3 romp past Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the home opener. Lots of shaking heads too after a wildly changing weather day too.

The Bisons hit four homers, two by Zach Lutz, and set a franchise record for runs in a home opener as Wally Backman got a win in his first home game as Buffalo manager.

Listen in below to our postgame chats with Backman, Lutz and Valentino Pascucci.
