Toledo Mud Hens (Triple-A)
Final: Charlotte 7 – Toledo 5
Top Performer(s):
Malloy, RF – 2-4, 2B, R, RBI, BB
Kreidler, SS – 2-4, 2B, 3 RBI, BB
Game notes:
Wilkel Hernandez didn’t have his best outing today, surrendering 8 H and 5 ER over 5 IP, although he did fan 7. He induced some whiffs, 10 0n his sinker and one on his slider, but ultimately left the fastball over the heart of the plate entirely too much and hit a couple batters. Woo-Suk Go made his debut for the Mudhens today, pitching one inning of relief, 2 H, R, ER, and a K. His four-seam fastball touched 94 and sat 93, cutter 88, and we saw him flash his splitter and curveball. Alex Lange continued his rehab assignment, throwing one shutout inning with a walk and two strikeouts.
Tomorrow’s projected starters: McKendry (1-5, 6.59 ERA) vs. Lockhart (3-6, 5.75 ERA)
