Akil Baddoo triples three times in Mud Hens victory
Toledo Mud Hens 3, Omaha Storm Chasers 2 (box)
Recent minor league signing Devin Smeltzer acquitted himself well in his Mud Hens debut and the Hens had just enough offense to win this one. The lefty spun five scoreless frames with no walks, striking out three.
Akil Baddoo tripled in the first, but was cut down trying to tag and score on a shallow fly ball to center field. Instead, the game was scoreless until the sixth.
Hao-Yu Lee led off the sixth inning with a walk and was wild pitched to second. Baddoo scorched his second triple of the game to plate Lee, and then a Jace Jung grounder brought in Baddoo for a 2-0 lead.
