The Hens had the Iowa Cubs on the ropes this weekend, and while the Cubbies managed to take a game on Saturday, the Hens’ offense erupted again on Sunday to win the game, and the series five games to one.
Toledo went with a bullpen game in this one, so they needed to score plenty of runs. The Cubs scored in the first, but only got one run against Drew Carlton in his two innings of work to open this one. The offense took the game over in the third and fourth innings.
Jamie Westbrook reached base to open the bottom of the third on a catcher interference call, and Josh Lester cashed him in with his seventh home run of the season.
