The bat of Brent Dlugach and the arm of Enrique Gonzales combined to lead the Mud Hens to a 3-0 win over Indianapolis at Fifth Third Field Monday morning.

Gonzales threw a complete game in shutting out the Indians on just two hits, one walk and one hit batsman while striking out nine. The right-hander retired 19 of the last 20 Indianapolis hitters he faced and did not allow a runner past second.

Dlugach provided the offense, slamming a three-run home run off the left-field scoreboard in the sixth off Indians starter Brad Lincoln to score the game's only runs. The homer was Dlugach's third this season.

The game was the first School Celebration Day of the season and attracted a crowd of 9,879 to the ballpark. It marked the Hens' fifth sellout this season.
