Keider Montero hung quite a few sliders in this one, and consequently gave up a ton of hits, but he also put on a bit of a masterclass in pitching through traffic.
Right from the start there was trouble. With one out in the top of the first, the Storm Chasers loaded the bases on two singles and a walk. Montero struck out John Rave and got Tyler Gentry to ground out to escape the jam. Justyn-Henry Malloy walked with one out in the bottom half of the first and scored on a Tyler Nevin double to make it 1-0 Hens.
