Cedar Rapids Kernels News Release
The Clinton LumberKings used an RBI double by Cristian Santana and solid starting pitching by Evan Reed (1-0) to hold the Cedar Rapids Kernels to four hits in a 1-0 shutout win in game 1 of a DH on Saturday evening at Alliant Energy Field in Clinton.
Jay Brosselman had two of the four Kernels hits. Hector Estrella and Efren Navarro each had a single to complete the Kernel offense.
Kernels starter Jordan Walden (0-1) was a victim of no run support as he held the LumberKings to a run on six hits and struck out four in the complete game loss.

The Kernels and LumberKings play game two of today's DH as Michael Davitt makes a spot start for the Kernels and Neftali Feliz starts for Clinton.
