Thomas Ponticelli and Mason Hickman toss career-best games in Akron and Lake County victories

Box Score · Clippers fall to 19-22

That’s one way to end a home run streak.

Heading into Sunday’s game, Andres Gimenez had homered in a whopping six consecutive games, but it’s hard to homer when your team gets shut out, impossible even.

Starting pitcher Kirk McCarty didn’t pitch poorly, allowing three runs on five hits in 5.0 innings while striking out three and walking two, but he was handed the loss thanks to the silent Clippers bats.

Dalbert Siri was hammered for four runs out of the bullpen, and the one Clipper pitcher to hold Toledo scoreless was Anthony Gose, who struck out the side in the eighth inning.
