Despite claiming the lead twice and mounting a furious rally in the bottom of the ninth, the Mud Hens fell short Thursday night, dropping Game 2 of the Governor’s Cup semi-finals to even up the best-of-five series with Durham. The Bulls struck first in the top of the second inning against Hens starter Jacob Turner, who wasn’t particularly sharp, but limited damage throughout the night. Turner had runners on base in each of six innings, allowing three earned runs on nine hits. After Turner induced a four-six-three double-play to thwart a potential big inning in the second, Daz Cameron tripled in Willi Castro in the bottom half of the inning to tie things up.
