Indianapolis Indians News Release


MEMPHIS, Tenn. - The Indianapolis Indians were held to just three hits on Tuesday night in their series-opening loss to the Memphis Redbirds, 5-1.

After a 1 hour and five-minute rain delay prior to first pitch, the Redbirds (56-49) broke open a lead with a four-run outpour in the bottom of the fourth inning. With one out and runners on second and third, Delvin Perez grounded a ball up-the-middle to score both runners. Kramer Robertson would cap the inning with a two-run homer off starting pitcher Miguel Yajure (L, 2-3) to make it a 4-0 Redbirds advantage.

Memphis RHP Thomas Parsons (W, 7-3) did not allow a hit through 5.1 innings, before a Jared Oliva bloop single broke up the no-hit bid. Parsons held the Indians (51-53) scoreless in his 6.0 innings of work.

A one-out walk drawn by Jack Suwinski set the table for Indians' lone run of the contest. Brendt Citta singled down the right-field line to put runners on the corners, and Mason Martin grounded into a fielder's choice to score Suwinski and make it a 4-1 deficit. Memphis would get a run back in their following at bat.

The Indians and Redbirds will continue their six-game series Wednesday at AutoZone Park at 8:05 PM ET. RHP Osvaldo Bido (1-6, 5.35) will take the mound for the Indians, and the Redbirds will counter with major league rehabber, RHP Jack Flaherty (0-1, 2.25).
