Drew Hutchison returned to the fold after testing the free agent waters and finding no interest. His first start back with the Hens didn’t go too well, and the offense went silent after building a slim early lead on Thursday.
Zack Short got the Hens on the board in the bottom of the first with his second solo shot in as many days from the leadoff spot. Brendon Davis led off the second inning with a solo shot as well, his fifth of the season. Unfortunately, the offense was out of runs at that point, while Louisville was just getting started.
