ROCHESTER NOTES:
THA CARTER XII: 3B
CARTER KIEBOOM increased his on-base streak to all 12 games he has appeared in this season, going 1-for-4 with a single in the second inning...the Georgia native now posts a
.479 on-base percentage, best on the team and seventh-best in the International League...this is tied for the second-longest on-base streak in his professional career (17 G
2x in 2017, 12 G in 2023).
DJ GOT US FALLIN' IN LOVE: LHP
DJ HERZ made his third start of the season for the Red Wings tonight, and tossed 5.0 innings while allowing one earned on just one hit while striking out five, retiring his final nine batters...this is the ninth time in his professional career that
he's allowed one hit or fewer through at least 5.0 innings of work and fourth time he has tossed 5.0 innings without issuing a free pass (first since 8/16/23 at RIC, with HBG for both)...
5.0 innings pitched ties a season-high from Red Wings starters (Adon, Rutledge).
EASIER SAID THAN DUNN: SS
JACK DUNN knocked in the Red Wings' first run of the game in the fifth, and later added a walk to finish off a 1-for-2 night...Dunn has now collected a hit in nine of his 12 games played in April and pushes his on-base streak to 10 games, tied for the second-longest active streak on the team behind 3B CARTER KIEBOOM (12)...
Dunn has drawn 10 walks over his last eight games since 4/11, most in the International League over that span. He leads all Red Wings' hitters in April with a .324 (11-for-34) batting average, 477 on-base percentage, .559 slugging percentage, and a 1.036 OPS.
TOUCH EM' ALL, TRAV: DH
TRAVIS BLANKENHORN tied the team lead with his third home run of the season tonight, a sixth-inning two-run shot that traveled 430 feet to dead center, the Wings farthest home run this season...the lefty slugger finished the contest 1-for-3 with the homer, and has now collected an extra-base hit in five of his last seven games since 4/13-G1 (2 HR, 3B, 4 2B)...
This was Blankenhorn's 26th career home run with Rochester, the second-most of any Red Wing since they became a Nationals affiliate in 2021, trailing only Jake Noll (33).
BARNES AND N(0)BLE: RHP
JACOB BARNES closed the door for his second save of the season tonight, striking out two of the three batters he faced in the ninth...he has yet to allow a run this season through his first seven appearances, tied for the second-longest active streak in the International League...
Barnes has struck out 10 batters while walking just two this season (5.0 K/BB).
MUD HENS NOTE:
PUT THE HURTER ON ME: LHP
BRANT HURTER twirled 5.0 scoreless innings for the Mud Hens tonight, allowing one unearned run on two hits while striking out nine and walking none...nine punchouts is tied for his second-most in a game (last 5/31/23 at RIC, with ERI), just two off his career-high (11, 5/26/22 at TAM, with LAK)...
Nine strikeouts are the most by a Toledo pitcher since RHP
KEIDER MONTERO struck out the same number on 9/15/2023 against Columbus.
