After a back and forth game, the Hens just couldn’t manage a late comeback in this one. Chi Chi Gonzalez was decent, tossing five innings with two runs allowed. He did punch out seven along the way.
Toledo seized the early lead in the first inning when Ryan Kreidler singled with one out and Josh Lester doubled him home. After the Bats tied it up in the second inning, Kreidler smacked an inside-the-parker to left center field in the third to regain the lead. The Bats again tied the game up in the fifth, and then the sixth inning proved decisive as they scored three runs in the top half of the inning.
