The Mud Hens claimed their fourth win in a row by knocking off Columbus 2-1 at Fifth Third Field tonight.

Toledo starter Derek Hankins shut out the Clippers on two hits until there were two outs in the top of the ninth and Columbus collected a double and an RBI single. Corey Knebel claimed his second save with the Hens thanks to a called third strike.

The Mud Hens scored both of their runs in the sixth when Wade Gaynor reached on a run-scoring fielder's choice and a two-out RBI single by Ezequiel Carrera.
