Keon Keys Comeback in Triple-A Debut

May 29, 2015 - International League (IL1)
Indianapolis Indians News Release


INDIANAPOLIS - Keon Broxton homered, scored twice and drove in two runs during his Triple-A debut and the Indianapolis Indians scored three times in the bottom of the eighth to defeat the Toledo Mud Hens 5-4 on Friday night at Victory Field.

The Tribe (30-19) has won a season-high five straight games, is 8-1 over the last nine contests and owns the best record in the International League.

Broxton saw just two pitches with the Indians before depositing Toledo (19-29) starter Tim Melville's offering over the center field wall for a solo home run in the first inning. The 25 year old also singled home Alen Hanson in the eighth before tying the score on an RBI groundout from Brent Morel.

Tony Sanchez chased Mud Hens reliever Bruce Rondon (1-1) with a sac fly that gave the Indians the lead and plated Sanchez's seventh run of the last five games.

Indianapolis starter and McCutcheon High School grad Clayton Richard took the no-decision despite pitching seven innings with no earned runs. He retired 14 consecutive batters before Mike Hessman capitalized on a walk and an error with his two-out grand slam in the sixth inning.
