Entering the weekend down 2-1 in the six-game set in Toledo, the Mud Hens took three straight to win the series, capped by a convincing 6-2 win on Sunday.
Michael Pineda’s final rehab start went reasonably well as he spun five innings of two-run ball with four strikeouts and no walks. The Bats got to him for a pair in the first inning, but he was excellent the rest of the way and the Hens’ bats took over the game from that point on.
The offense got on the board in the third courtesy of a leadoff triple from John Valente, and an Ali Sanchez ground out to score him.
