MUD HENS NOTES
Splitting the series: The Toledo Mud Hens split last week's series against the Columbus Clippers at 3-3. The Hens fell down 0-2 to begin the week on Tuesday (7-6/10) and Wednesday (14-8). Toledo then ripped off three straight wins on Thursday (7-3), Friday (6-4) and Saturday (3-1) to move ahead in the series 3-2. The Hens fell on Sunday (5-3) after a late-inning gut punch, leading to a 3-3 split in the first Ohio battle of the year.
Stifling Sammons: Pitcher Bryan Sammons has been electric lately, winning each of his last four outings on the mound. Sammons' four wins leads the Mud Hens pitching staff, paired with a 3.54 ERA, 10 walks, and 25 strikeouts.
