The Mud Hens picked up just four hits tonight and most of their production came from the top of the order.  Freddy Guzman went two for four with a double, a triple and two runs while Timo Perez doubled and drove in two.

Eddie Bonine fell to 9-2 with a rough start.  He gave up five runs on eight hits and two walks with five strikeouts in six innings.  More discouraging was how Fernando Rodney was knocked around for three runs in just 1/3 of an inning.

The Mud Hens had a tough time at the plate and they pushed across just two runs on five hits in a 4-2 loss to Pawtucket.  Timo Perez had two of those hits and he drove in both runs with a two run homer in the first inning.

Jeremy Johnson took the loss and he fell to 3-3.  He gave up one run on three hits and a walk with two strikeouts in 3 1/3 innings.  Fernando Rodney threw a shutout inning of relief in his rehab stint.  He walked one and struck out two.
