Tri-City Dust Devils News Release
The Tri-City Dust Devils (10-22) were unable to sustain an early lead on Wednesday night at Ron Tonkin Field as the team lost 10-2 to the Hillsboro Hops. Tri-City struck first with a run in the top of the first, but the Hops immediately countered with five runs later in the inning to take a lead they would not relinquish.
The long ball was again a factor in the game. A night removed from slugging a grand slam, Hillsboro's Buddy Kennedy hit a solo home run for his second blast of the series. The Hops hit three home runs in the game, including a inside-the-park homer from Nick Dalesandro. Francisco Del Valle delivered at the plate for the Dust Devils, driving in both of Tri-City's runs in the loss.
Right-hander Davis Daniel will toe the rubber for Tri-City in the third matchup of the six-game road series today. Hillsboro will counter with right-hander Bryce Jarvis. First pitch from Ron Tonkin Field is set for 1:05 PM. This afternoon's radio broadcast will only be available at https://www.milb.com/tri-city-dust-devils/fans/audio-listen-live
