Tigers Minor League Baseball Blog

The Mud Hens played two today, at least sort of because yesterdays game was suspended after four innings.  Yorman Bazardo hopefully got back on track with a decent start and he gave up two runs on four hits with three strikeouts in four innings (he pitched yesterday).  Jeremy Johnson picked up the win with three solid innings in which he gave up a single run and struck out four and Aquillino Lopez got the final batter out for his second save of the season.  Jack Hannahan went two for four with a double, a run and two RBIs.  Ryan Rayburn drove in two runs and Chris Shelton had two hits and two runs.

The second game didn’t go as well as the Bulls shut out the Hens on five hits.  Five different Mud Hens singled in a pretty poor hitting game.  Just as bad, Zach Miner was shelled and he dropped to 0-2.  He gave up seven runs on seven hits and three walks in just 1 1/3 innings and he’s pitching himself out of a chance to replace the struggling Chad Durbin up with the Tigers.
