Mud Hens win on a late home run from Willi Castro

Tim Adleman survived three home runs, and the Hens’ offense came through late to win on Tuesday. Adleman kept it clean through three innings, but solo shots in the fourth and fifth, and then a two-run homer in the sixth, ended his day and accounted for all the Stripers’ scoring. The Hens loaded the bases in the third and scored two on a Jake Rogers single to take an early lead. After Adleman’s home run troubles, the Hens were down 4-2 before they loaded the bases again in the seventh, and Dustin Peterson came through with a two-run single. The game was still tied in the eighth when red-hot hitting shortstop Willi Castro came through with a solo shot to left field that proved to be the game winner.
