Allentown, Pennsylvania - The Lehigh Valley IronPigs (31-25, 78-53) scored 10 unanswered runs en route to their fifth straight win, seventh straight at home, in a 10-3 triumph over the Toledo Mud Hens (35-23, 74-59) on Tuesday night at Coca-Cola Park.

Toledo scored first on a Max Anderson RBI single and Trei Cruz sacrifice fly in the third before tacking on another on a Hao-Yu Lee sacrifice fly in the fourth.

In the fifth, Otto Kemp got the 'Pigs on the board with a two out RBI single. Two walks followed, loading the bases for Donovan Walton who stroked a base knock to score two and tie the game. Brewer Hicklen then legged out an infield single to drive in the go-ahead run.

Hicklen brought home two insurance runs with a homer in the seventh before the 'Pigs plated three more in the eighth. Gabriel Rincones Jr. singled home a run and Rafael Lantigua followed suit with another RBI base hit. A throwing error later in the frame brought in the 10th and final run.

Ryan Cusick (2-0) got the win for the 'Pigs, working 1.2 perfect frames, striking out four. He led a bullpen that covered 4.2 scoreless frames with Devin Sweet, Daniel Harper, and Nolan Hoffman all throwing shutout innings following Cusick.
