Cannonballs coming: Gage Hinsz debuts with five shutout innings

-- Indianapolis (28-25) blew a 10-2 lead over Toledo, but eventually won, 16-11, in 13 innings. Jameson Taillon gave up two quick runs in the first inning, but settled down and mostly breezed through the next five. He gave up a third run in the seventh and left with one out. For the game he allowed five hits and a walk, fanned seven, and threw 66 of 99 pitches for a strike. His outing included fanning Casey McGehee on a couple of nasty curves with runners on first and third and one out. It's really hard to see why Taillon would make any more starts in AAA.
