DES MOINES, IOWA - The Omaha Storm Chasers suffered a 5th straight loss in Tuesday night's series opener against the Iowa Cubs, falling 12-0.

Omaha starter Ben Kudrna faced the minimum through 2.0 innings, striking out 2 in a 1-2-3 2nd inning. The game remained scoreless until the bottom of the 3rd inning, as the Cubs took a 1-0 lead with an RBI fielder's choice.

Iowa plated 2 more runs before an out was recorded in the 4th inning, chasing Kudrna from the game with a 3-0 advantage. Beck Way replaced Kudrna and inherited runners on second and third. The pair of bequeathed runners scored, then Way allowed 5 additional runs of his own for a 10-0 Cubs advantage after 4 innings.

In the 5th, Nick Robertson struck out 2 and faced one over the minimum; however, the Cubs extended their lead to 12-0 in the 6th with a 2-run home run off Robertson.

Eric Cerantola relieved Robertson and worked a scoreless 7th inning, then Brandon Johnson pitched a 1-2-3 8th.

Harold Castro singled in the 2nd inning and MJ Melendez doubled in the 3rd, but the Chasers were held to just the 2 hits in the game and went down in order in the bottom of the 9th, securing the 12-0 final score in favor of the Cubs.

Omaha will look to bounce back on Wednesday against the Iowa Cubs, with first pitch set for 12:05 p.m. CT at Principal Park. Right-hander Shane Panzini is scheduled to pitch.
