BILOXI, MS - A sixth-inning grand slam was the difference as the Biloxi Shuckers (1-5) fell to the Columbus Clingstones (2-3), 5-2 at Keesler Federal Park on Thursday night. In the loss, Bladimir Resitiuyo (2-for-4) recorded his first multi-hit game in the Milwaukee Brewers organization and Luis Lara (1-for-3, 2 BB) reached base three times.

The game began as a pitcher's duel between Shuckers' starter Tate Kuehner and Clingstones' starter Drew Hackenberg. The pair traded zeros through five innings before Tate Kuehner was lifted with two on and one out in the sixth. Ethan Workinger struck first for the Clingstones with a grand slam to left, making it 4-0. Kuehner finished his day with 5.2 innings and two runs allowed. Hackenberg, who allowed a run in the sixth off a single from Luke Adams, finished with six innings and three hits allowed.

Down 4-1, the Shuckers clawed back in the seventh when Zavier Warren roped a double down the right field and came in to score on a bloop single from Bladimir Restituyo to short right. In the eighth, the Shuckers threatened when the first two runners reached, but Clingstones reliever Hayden Harris retired the next three in order to keep the deficit at two. The Clingstones struck for the final time in the ninth with a sacrifice fly from Geraldo Quintero, making it 5-2. Kuehern (0-2) took the loss while Hackenberg (1-1) earned the win. Rolddy Muñoz also picked up his second save of the season with a scoreless ninth.

The Shuckers return on Friday with Nate Peterson (0-1, 3.00) slated to start against Lucas Braun (0-0, 4.50). First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 p.m. at Keesler Federal Park.
