It’s all over, folks.
It was empty out the bullpen day in Des Moines as Michael Rucker got his first start of the season. He went two innings and gave up one run on three hits and a walk. He struck out three. He also hit one batter.
Craig Brooks had a rough time going next, giving up four runs on six hits over two innings. Three of the six hits he allowed were home runs.
The win went to Jordan Minch, who pitched 1.1 innings without giving up a run.
