A fine outing from Joey Wentz led the Mud Hens over the Red Wings on Tuesday night. The big lefty tossed six scoreless, allowing just three hits and a walk, while striking out four. He remains on the shortlist to join the Tigers when rosters expand, though Michael Pineda’s return may complicate matters. Pretty confident Hinch and Fetter would like to get their hands on Wentz for a little bit as he needs to start providing value next season.
Meanwhile the Hens’ offense was winning via the long ball. Andre Lipcius lifted his first Triple-A home run, a solo shot, in the top of the third.
