Game Notes:
The MudHens started strong today, putting up 3 runs in the bottom of the first, while matching that with another 3 runs in the bottom of the fifth to lead the way to a 6-5 win for their first W of the year. The Clippers attempted a furious comeback in the 9th inning, scoring 3 runs off PJ Poulin to pull within one run (with the tying run on 2nd), before Poulin ultimately struck out Dayan Frias to end the game. Hao-Yu Lee, Jace Jung and Justyn-Henry Malloy powered the MudHens offense, going a combined 4 for 10 with 3 doubles, 2 walks and 5 RBI.
The 1-2 MudHens are off tomorrow before beginning a 6 game stand against the Round Rock Express next week.
