MUD HENS NOTES
Securing a Split: The Toledo Mud Hens split the series 3-3 with the Iowa Cubs over the past week. The Hens dropped the rain-halted series opener (10-2), before taking game two on Wednesday (10-8/7) and then the game Thursday (8-4). A pair of losses Friday (4-2) and Saturday (5-4/10) set the Hens to fight for a split in the finale. The Hens rode a Dillon Dingler three-run home run to a win on Sunday (6-3) to earn a split.
Do-It-All Dillon: Catcher Dillon Dingler has been absolutely on fire over his thirteen-game hitting streak. Dingler is 22-49 (.449) over his last 13 games, passing the longest hit streak by a Mud Hen this season. Over that stretch, Dingler has smacked four home runs and 11 RBI with four doubles while scoring 11 times. He leads all of Triple-A baseball with that 13-game hitting streak.
Mashing Meadows: Outfielder Parker Meadows clubbed two home runs in the second game of the doubleheader, signifying the return of his swing. Meadows was 6-26 in the series with two home runs and five RBI. Meadows anchored himself into the leadoff spot during his return to Toledo.
Tork Time: Infielder Spencer Torkelson came down and smacked Iowa pitching in his first series with the Mud Hens. Torkelson led the Mud Hens with eight hits in the series, going 8-24 with a home run, four RBI, and three doubles. Torkelson is off to a quick start and looks to come home to Toledo to continue his resurgence.
Home for Dad: The Toledo Mud Hens will come home for Father's Day weekend to host the Omaha Storm Chasers. The Hens will play a quintet of 7:05 p.m. games to begin the series before capping the series off with Father's Day at Fifth Third Field on Sunday at 2:05 p.m.
