Sam Haggerty off to a strong start in Double-A
After an explosive first game of the season, the Columbus Clippers offense looked to big brother’s example and decided to get shut out while recording less than seven hits as a team.
Yandy Diaz and Adam Rosales were the only Clippers to record two hits, although Eric Haase had a hit and a walk to reach base safely twice.
Starting pitcher Adam Plutko gave up four runs in five innings on six hits while striking out three and walking three. Reliever Preston Claiborne was tattooed for five runs in 0.1 innings of work to put the game out of reach in the sixth inning.
