Tyler Nevin and Zack Short homer in Hens’ weekend losses

Prospect starter Reese Olson’s home run issues carried over to the Triple-A level, and the offense drew a ton of walks but couldn’t push the runs across on Saturday.

Olson lasted just two innings. As is his custom, the strikeouts were there, but so were the dingers. He allowed a pair of homers in the second innings that put the Saints up 3-0 and knocked Olson out early.

Tyler Nevin trimmed the deficit with a solo shot in the bottom of the second inning, but that was all the Hens could manage despite drawing six walks on the day.
