GWINNETT, GA - Bulls third baseman Tristan Gray and designated hitter Niko Hulszier recorded two hits combined in Durham's 2-1 victory over the Gwinnett Stripers Thursday evening at Coolray Field.
The Stripers got their first score in the first on a walk before Gray's double in the fourth put the Bulls on the board. Hulsizer's solo shot in the same frame made it 2-1.
Bulls starter Evan Mckendry (4.2 IP, 2 H, 5 BB, 2 SO) earned the win, while AJ Smith-Shawver (7.0 IP, 4 H, 3 BB, 8 SO) suffered the defeat.
The two teams are set to continue their six-game road set on Friday afternoon, with first pitch scheduled for 7:05pm. RHP Sean Hunley is anticipated to get the nod for Durham, while Gwinnett's starting pitcher has not yet been determined.
