Jeimer Candelario and Christin Stewart power another Mud Hens romp

Kyle Funkhouser faded late in an otherwise strong start, but the Hens batters were having none of it on Tuesday night. They mashed five home runs in the contest, erupting in the final two frames to bury Indianapolis. The win was the Hens fourth in a row, and while they’re not in the postseason picture in the International League, they are finishing strong in August despite a depleted rotation.

Jeimer Candelario, Christin Stewart, and Frank Schwindel have been a force in the middle of the lineup during this run and all three homered in this one.
