Indianapolis Indians News Release


INDIANAPOLIS - The Indianapolis Indians offense backed a gem from Osvaldo Bido with its fourth double-digit run performance of the week to clinch a series win against the Toledo Mud Hens on Saturday night at Victory Field, 10-7.

Bido (W, 3-3), making his ninth start of the season, limited the damage with seven strikeouts and just one free base surrendered on a hit-by-pitch to begin the game. After surrendering an RBI single to Parker Meadows in the first inning to give Toledo (24-31) a short-lived lead, Bido sat down the next 12 consecutive batters.

Meanwhile, the Indians (27-28) offense continued its dominance over Mud Hens pitching, scoring multiple runs in the second, third and fifth innings. After a two-run single by Jared Triolo gave Indy the lead in the second inning, a pair of doubles by Cal Mitchell and Miguel Andújar before a run-scoring wild pitch extended the lead to 5-1 in the third.

The game was broken open in the fifth when the Indians countered one Mud Hen run with four of their own via an error, run-scoring groundout, sacrifice fly and Aaron Shackelford single. Endy Rodríguez tacked on another with a single in the sixth.

Toledo rallied in the top of the ninth and scored five runs to come within striking distance of Indianapolis. Back-to-back two-out home runs by Corey Joyce and Justyn-Henry Malloy highlighted the frame.

Andújar logged four hits for the second time of the series to tie his career high. In four games against Toledo this week, he is 11-for-18 with five runs scored, two doubles, one home run and six RBI. Triolo led the Indians with three RBI and extended his RBI streak to five games, all of which have come against the Mud Hens.

The Indians have now scored double-digit runs in each of their four wins this series and seven of their last 18 games.

Indianapolis will look to take five of six games from Toledo for the second time this season tomorrow afternoon at 1:35 PM ET.
