I-Cubs Shut Out Against Indians
June 19, 2024 - International League (IL)
Iowa Cubs News Release
INDIANAPOLIS, IN - The Iowa Cubs (31-40) tallied seven hits against the Indianapolis Indians (31-38) on Wednesday night but were unable to get any runs across the plate and fell by a score of 2-0.
The offense was hard to come by for the I-Cubs and Indians as Iowa starter Kyle McGowin and the Indianapolis combination of Braxton Ashcraft and Brady Feigl held the bats relatively in check with a scoreless game after five innings.
The scoreless tie was finally broken in the bottom of the eighth with the Indians scoring two runs. The first run scored off an error by Iowa and the second run scored was due to a wild pitch while the bases were loaded.
Iowa then lined into a double play and ended the contest on a groundout to drop its second consecutive game to open the series against Indianapolis.
POSTGAME NOTES:
- Moises Ballesteros led the Iowa offense going 3-for-4 at the plate.
- Kyle McGowin finished with a final line of 5.0 scoreless innings with five hits allowed, seven strikeouts, and no walks.
- Riley Martin tossed two scoreless, hitless innings in relief.
- Tonight marked the third time Iowa has been shutout in a game this season.
Iowa and Indianapolis will continue their six-game series with game three tomorrow. First pitch from Victory Field is slated for 6:05 pm CT.
