Chris Lee’s woes at the triple-A level continued, as he allowed all six Toledo runs (four earned) in just two innings of work. After a disastrous start to the year, Lee had actually strung together three straight starts of 5+ innings and two or less runs allowed, but that run ended in a big way last night.
Richard Rodriguez did a nice job picking up the slack with three shutout innings in relief, but the Tides couldn’t get much going on offense. They small-balled a pair of runs across in the third and tacked on another with a David Washington RBI single in the sixth, but that was it.
