Brant Hurter and Troy Melton star as Whitecaps and Flying Tigers win on Friday

The Storm Chasers bounced back on Friday, pummeling Hens’ starter Reese Olson to run away with this one and get back in the series. The Hens remains up 3-1 with two games remaining this weekend.

Olson has had some home run trouble, and concerns remain about his fastball, but that wasn’t really the issue on Friday. The Storm Chasers just kept stringing together hits, racking up seven runs on eight hits and a walk, against six strikeouts.

Akil Baddoo has been dangerous out of the Hens’ leadoff spot so far, and he was at it again in this one.
