Maybe Durham is adjusting to the new Triple-A offensive environment. In their first seven games, the Bulls allowed 10-plus runs three times. In their ongoing six-game winning streak, they’ve allowed just 12 runs.
Triple-A Durham Bulls (12-10)
Jake Cronenworth’s home run was the difference in Durham’s Game 1, 1-0 win over Columbus. The teams combined for just seven hits, and all of them were singles except for Cronenworth’s first homer of the season. Casey Sadler threw four scoreless innings, and Cole Sulser, Hoby Milner, and Oliver Drake combined to pitch the last three.
