After a tough loss on Tuesday night, the Hens pitching staff came through with a fantastic performance to carry them on Wednesday night. Ricardo Pinto went seven innings, allowing just four hits and two walks, with six strikeouts. Angel De Jesus picked up where Pinto left off, spinning two perfect frames with three punchouts of his own. Omaha’s staff didn’t exactly fold up shop either, as the Hens managed eight hits but couldn’t string anything together. Instead they rode solo shots by Yariel Gonzalez in the fifth and JaCoby Jones in the seventh to victory.
Gonzalez: 2-3, R, RBI, HR, 2B, BB
Paredes: 2-4, SO
Jones: 1-4, R, RBI, HR, 2 SO
