Kinston Indians News Release


Double Dose of Power-A day after Ole Sheldon and Lucas Montero both hit home runs, Cord Phelps and Lonnie Chisenhall each went deep Monday at Frederick. It marked the 10th time Kinston has had multi-homer games this season. The K-Tribe has hit 22 long balls in those 10 games, which has accounted for 48% of the total amount of dingers Kinston has had this season. The Indians have hit just 46 homers in 86 games.

Make It A Baker's Dozen-K-Tribe All-Star Lonnie Chisenhall extended his hitting streak to a season-high 13 games last night with his 14th home run of the season. It is Chisenhall's third hitting streak of 11 or more games this season, as he had streaks of 11 and 12 games earlier in the campaign. The Newport native now has 20 multi-hit games this season as well, leading the team in that department. Chisenhall has not gone more than two straight games without a hit, and has just four back-to-back hitless games this season. The homer for Lonnie was also his first since winning the Home Run Derby in Lake Elsinore, CA over the All-Star break.
