BUFFALO, NY (WKBW) - The Pacific Coast League blanked the International League 3-0 on Wednesday in the Triple-A All-Star Game. A sellout crowd of 18,025 watched it go down inside Coca-Cola Field.

Omaha's Wil Myers won the Top Star Award for the PCL, going 2-for-3 with a double and an RBI. He also scored a run.

Buffalo Pitcher Matt Harvey won the Top Star Award for the IL. Harvey tossed two innings of hitless ball. He struck out two batters.

Bisons slugger Valentino Pascucci lined a double off the wall in left field in his first at-bat. He then walked in his next three trips to the plate.

Adding to the local flare, Buffalo native Jim Negrych got a hit in his first at-bat. Negrych received a warm ovation from the hometown crowd as he approached the plate and during his pregame introduction.

The Bisons resume their schedule Thursday night in Pawtucket.
