A rough Triple-A debut was too much for a pair of Akil Baddoo homers and a good day for the offense overall to overcome.
The Hens came right out and provided their young starting pitcher a nice lead to work with. Akil Baddoo crushed the second pitch of the game to straightaway center for his third round tripper of the season. But the Hens were just getting loosened up.
Justyn-Henry Malloy followed with a single and stole second as Jace Jung struck out. Keston Hiura singled Malloy to third and Buddy Kennedy drew a walk to load the bases.
