April 12, 2024 - International League (IL)
Columbus Clippers News Release
The Columbus Clippers crushed four home runs in the first four innings on the way to a 13-4 drubbing of the Louisville Bats on Tuesday at Louisville Slugger Field.
Juan Brito and Lorenzo Cedrola both went deep in the 2nd, sparking the Clippers to an early 5-0 lead. Johnathan Rodriguez added a solo shot in the 3rd, and an inning later Jhonkensy Noel blasted a grand slam.
