He allowed one hit and one run over two innings, striking out two and walking one. Seth Shadix, Josh Mejia and Ian Smith all put in work on the pitcher’s mound in Tuesday’s game. Jacob Giles led with three hits on five at bats, followed by Tyler Salomon, Colby Owens, Mikell Collins and Justin Brooks with two hits each. Cole Escher, Ty Tyndal, Jake Bryan, Franco Perdomo, Cameron James and Garrison Hurd contributed one hit apiece.
