Hens deliver in a pinch
The Mud Hens claimed an 8-6 victory over Lehigh Valley at Fifth Third Field on Monday, and Toledo’s star of the game was a pitcher. That’s right, a pitcher. Forget that the offense piled up 16 hits, including a trio of two-run home runs. The key to victory was a pitcher. And it wasn’t the last two pitchers, although Al Alburquerque and Bruce Rondon dominated the IronPigs, striking out seven batters in a row on the way to securing the Hens’ seventh straight win.
