After some shaky outings, the Hens pitching staff put together a very strong eight inning effort but were undone in the ninth. Chase Anderson spun four innings of one hit ball with five strikeouts to no walks, and Ricardo Pinto followed suit with three scoreless and four punchouts to no walks. They had to be sharp, as the Hens clung to a one run lead.
The Hens opened the scoring in the fourth. Zack Short reached on an error and moved to second on a Willi Castro single. Short moved to third on a Kody Clemens groundout, and scored on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Ryan Kreidler.
