Five Boise players recorded three hits or more, part of a season-high 22 hit attack, as the Hawks completed a three-game sweep of the Tri-City Dust Devils, winning 10-4, before 3,305 fans at Memorial Stadium.

Josh Harrison went 4-for-5 with four runs batted in, with his two-run double in the sixth inning breaking a 4-4 tie, lifting the Hawks to their season-high fourth-straight win. Boise added three insurance runs in the eighth to close out the win.

Tri-City took an early 1-0 lead in the first on a Scott Robinson homer, but Boise got two in their half of the frame, then added two more in the second on a Harrison base hit to take a 4-1 lead.

However, the Dust Devils rallied, getting an RBI single in the fifth from Austin Rauch and a two-run homer from Bo Bowman in the sixth to tie the score.

Josh Vitters, Ryan Keedy, Marwin Gonzalez, and Michael Brenly each had three hits in the win for the Hawks.

The two teams shift the series to Pasco, Wash., tomorrow for a return three-game series, as Mike Perconte meets Jonnathan Aristil at 8:15 p.m. (MDT).

NOTES - Harrison extended his hit streak to 12 games with a first-inning single...Brenly now has ten hits in his last 12 at bats...Bubba O'Donnell tossed two and a third innings of scoreless relief to notch his fourth win of the year...Dust Devils starter Parker Frazier allowed 16 hits in his six innings of work.
